Highlander

What it does

The cheapest way to generate real-time 768p AI video. We were inspired by infiniteslop.ai by @levelsio and tried rebuilding it but could not find cheap alternatives. Instead, we built custom GPU kernels to get the best price to performance ratio. We serve MiniMax H3 Fast at 50% of the cost of competitors. This product is ideal for people looking to build realtime video applications!

MiniMax FastH3 at $0.015/s ($0.90/min). 1344×768 with native audio, over an API.

We serve efficient realtime video streams with MiniMax FastH3 at $0.015 /s ( $0.90 /min). Photorealistic Scottish Highland bull walking straight toward the camera along a windswept mountain ridge at golden hour. Thick ginger-red coat, long fringe covering the eyes, wide curved horns. Wind rips through the fringe and beard. The camera dollies backward at chest height, staying locked on the bull as it closes the distance. Wet grass and heather flatten under each hoof. Mist rolls off the valley behind it. Distant loch and peaks in the background. Hoofbeats, wind, and a low snort on the soundtrack. Continuous uninterrupted shot, no cuts, shallow depth of field, cinematic 24fps. Photorealistic…from highlander.sh

  Hey folks! We're Alex and Evan, and we're working on putting together a 512 H100 compute cluster for startups and researchers to train large generative models on. - it runs at the lowest possible margins (<$2.00&#x2F;hr per H100) - designed for bursty training runs, so you can take say 128 H100s for a week - you don’t need to commit to multiple years of compute or pay for a year upfront Big labs like OpenAI and Deepmind have big clusters that support this kind of bursty allocation for their researchers, but startups so far have had to get very small clusters on very long term contracts, wait…

  Hey HN, after our 13B release we've been working on a faster version of our open-source video model and we're excited to share it. We started with a 13B base model that already had competitive generation speeds (e.g. 55s for a 5s video on an H100 — faster than any other model out there). But we wanted to push it further to allow everyone to quickly iterate over their video generations. So we built a distilled version focused on speed without sacrificing temporal or spatial coherence. With the Distilled model, you can now generate 5-second 720p videos in about 9.5 seconds on an H100, and…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
