When to use Hailuo 02 (512p)

Updated 2026-07-31

Where this model earns its cost — and where it doesn't.

This model generates 512p video clips from text prompts or an input image via image_url. It supports both 6-second and 10-second durations and operates on a per-clip billing model. It is the cheapest video tier available on the platform.

On Kyma, it runs through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint using a single API key. New accounts start with a $0.50 credit, and prompt caching applies a 90% discount to repeated prefixes, billing them at 10% of the standard input rate. Requests automatically fail over if a serving path degrades, and the exact cost is returned in the usage.cost field.

The model is optimized for cost over speed, so generation times will be slower than higher-tier alternatives. It does not support structured outputs, reasoning traces, or vision input parsing beyond the initial image reference.

Social Media Shorts

Generate quick 6s or 10s clips optimized for platforms like TikTok or Instagram.

Rapid Motion Mockups

Produce low-fidelity video drafts to test pacing and composition before high-res rendering.

Budget Video Workflows

Scale automated video generation pipelines where per-clip cost matters more than latency.

Not ideal for: Do not use this model for high-resolution cinematic output, real-time interactive applications, or workflows requiring structured JSON responses.
