Why the broader ecosystem matters for Hailuo users
MiniMax has raised over $1.5 billion through its IPO and venture funding, giving it substantial resources to continue improving Hailuo. The company has a large research team working across multiple model families and the financial runway to invest in video generation even while operating at a loss. The risk is that a Chinese AI company faces potential regulatory challenges in Western markets.
