API inputs and outputs train Higgsfield's models unless the workspace opts out, and the docs carry no changelog. The API returns 400 at the concurrency limit, with no Retry-After.\n\n**MiniMax Video API.** 2K with stereo audio at $0.13 a second, 768P at $0.08. No statement found on whether API inputs train models, and the privacy policy needs a browser.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Higgsfield API\n\n1. Send `Authorization: Key \u003ckey_id\u003e:\u003ckey_secret\u003e` to https://api.higgsfield.ai. A Bearer token is rejected\n2. Send a fresh `Idempotency-Key` with every generation. After a timeout or 5xx, repeat the same request with the same key, then read `status_url`\n3. Treat a 400 whose `detail` mentions concurrent requests as a limit, not a bad request. Wait for a running job to finish before submitting more\n4. Poll `status_url` from 2 seconds up to 10 with jitter, and stop on `completed`, `failed`, `nsfw` or `canceled`\n5. Download output within seven days. Media files may be deleted after that\n6. Read the model's own docs page for its schema. The OpenAPI file lists only a few models\n\n### MiniMax Video API\n\n1. Use POST /v2/video_generation for H3 and poll GET /v2/query/video_generation/{task_id}. Tasks stay queryable for 7 days\n2. Set `ratio` for text-to-video. `adaptive` isn't allowed there\n3. Pass `callback_url` to skip polling. Your endpoint must echo the `challenge` within 3 seconds\n4. A 402 means the balance is empty and a 422 means moderation blocked the content. Don't retry either unchanged\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Higgsfield API or MiniMax Video API?\n\nHiggsfield API scores 63.5 (B) on agent readiness against MiniMax Video API's 60 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. MiniMax Video API leads on schema \u0026 documentation.\n\n### Do Higgsfield API and MiniMax Video API need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Higgsfield API and MiniMax Video API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Higgsfield API has a hosted endpoint at https://api.higgsfield.ai and MiniMax Video API at https://api.minimax.io.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/higgsfield-vs-minimax-video.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/higgsfield-vs-minimax-video.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"higgsfield\", \"b\": \"minimax-video\"}`.
