MiniMax's open-weight music model. It writes a whole song — intro, verse, chorus, outro — from a style description, and sings the lyrics you give it. Up to five minutes in one render.
Playground
Write a prompt, set the request, and read what it will cost before anything runs.
Nothing runs from this page. The toolkit and the API are the same endpoint, the same price and the same balance.
Pricing
Charged per second of the track you ask for, with a minimum per track that covers loading the model on short pieces.
- Charged
- When the job is accepted, not when it finishes
- Failed renders
- Refunded in full, automatically
- Cold starts
- Never billed to you
The price is taken when the job is accepted, at the rate published here. Waking a machine takes time, never money: cold starts are on us.
Performance
Two numbers matter: how long a render takes on a machine that is already up, and how long the first one takes when none is.
No render has been timed for this model yet.
- Answer
- Immediate. The call returns an id and a
queuedstatus. - Delivery
- Poll
GET /v1/renders/{id}, or setwebhook_urland get a signed call when it lands. - Output link
- Signed, and valid for 24 hours
Hardware
The weights run on GPUs we rent, with no inference provider in between.

Parameters
Every field this model accepts. Anything it would ignore is not listed.
modelrequired- stringUse "minimaxai/minimax-music3".
promptrequired- stringWhat you want to see.
seed- integerSame seed, same render. Random without it.
webhook_url- stringWe sign a POST to it when the render lands.
API
One endpoint serves every family. The model field picks the machine, and the rest of the body follows the model.
curl -s -X POST https://klemet.app/api/v1/renders \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $KLEMET_KEY" \ -H "content-type: application/json" \ -d '{"model":"minimaxai/minimax-music3","prompt":"Your render is ready."}'It answers 202 at once, before the render starts:
{ "id": "rnd_3f8c21d0", "object": "render", "kind": "music", "model": "minimaxai/minimax-music3", "status": "queued", "created_at": "2026-09-14T09:12:44.000Z", "finished_at": null, "output": null, "estimated_usd": 0, "usd": null, "error": null}Read it back with GET /v1/renders/{id} until the status is succeeded or failed. A successful render carries an output.url. Create a key in your account, and the whole reference is in the docs.

The licence is the author's, not ours. What you may do with what you generate is written there, and it is worth reading before you ship.
FAQ
What am I charged if a render fails?
Nothing. The price is taken when the job is accepted and returned in full if the engine cannot finish it. The refund shows up in your activity as its own line.
Do you train on my prompts or my outputs?
No. Prompts and outputs are stored so you can read a render back and download it; they are not used to train anything, and the output links we hand out are signed and expire.
Why is the first render slower?
Machines sleep when nobody is using them, so the first call waits for one to wake. That wait costs you time and never money.
Can I use what I generate commercially?
That is the author's call, not ours. MiniMax Music 3 is published under other, and the terms are in the licence itself.
Can I run these weights myself?
Yes. The weights download without an agreement, and nothing here is a wrapper around a closed API. We charge for the machines and the plumbing, not for access.
