What it is

Kuaishou's video generator, now on Kling VIDEO 3.0 with 4K output added in April 2026 and native synchronised audio. A 5-second 1080p clip with audio costs about 60 credits. Includes lip-sync, motion brush and start/end frame control.

Why it earns a slot

Best-in-class physical realism - cloth, hair, water and human motion hold together where rivals melt into soup. Consistently the cheapest credible route to convincing 1080p character motion, and API failures do not consume credits.

Know before you commit

Free-tier clips are capped at 360-540p, permanently watermarked, and carry no commercial rights. On consumer plans a failed generation still burns your credits - only the API refunds failed tasks.

Getting started

API sold as prepaid resource packs: $9.80 trial (100 units, 30 days) up to $7,560 for 60,000 units.
