Use Cases
Imagine creating an engaging advertisement by combining text generation with MiniMax-Text-01 for the copy, generating a striking image with Leonardo.ai, and then animating it with a short video using Fal.ai. Finally, add a professional voiceover with Elevenlabs. All of this is possible thanks to the integration of Minimax and other providers in AI Content Labs. Another example could be creating an audiobook: use MiniMax-Text-01 to generate different narration styles from a base text, select the one that best fits your project, and then use Minimax's text-to-audio model, speech-01-turbo, to generate the audio. For a more complex project, you could generate a script with Anthropic, create images with Ideogram, generate a video with Minimax, and add background music using the Music-01 model. The possibilities are endless.
