MiniMax launched MiniMax Design, using its H3 multimodal video model for task decomposition, model invocation, generation, editing, and delivery.

MiniMax (稀宇科技) launched MiniMax Design, which it describes as a harness that turns multimodal-model capabilities into a production workflow. A user provides a creative request, after which the system interprets the goal and decomposes it into tasks.

MiniMax Design can invoke relevant models and skills, process source materials, generate content, edit the results, and produce the final deliverable. The workflow is therefore presented as an orchestration layer rather than only a standalone content-generation model.

MiniMax’s native multimodal video model H3 supplies the underlying capabilities for the product. The company said H3 had demonstrated multimodal understanding, video generation, video editing, and reference-based control.

MiniMax identified video-editing tasks as a particularly relevant use case because they require understanding, control, and modification of existing material. The source does not provide pricing, model size, context specifications, accelerator requirements, or service-performance metrics.
