Summary
On July 30, 2026, Vercel made MiniMax H3 available on its AI Gateway. H3 is a video-generation model that produces 2K video from text prompts, still images, or reference material, callable through the same AI Gateway interface as Vercel's text and voice models.
What changed
MiniMax H3 became available on Vercel AI Gateway, giving developers a unified way to generate up to 2K-resolution video from text, image, or reference inputs without integrating MiniMax's API directly.
Why it matters
Adding a frontier video model extends AI Gateway beyond text and voice into generative media, so teams can build video features against the same billing, routing, and observability layer they already use. It signals Vercel's intent to be the single access point across modalities rather than a text-first gateway.
