How the per-second price adds up
6 credits per second, 3 to 15 second range
The cheapest clip is 3 seconds for 18 credits. Stretch to the 15 second maximum and the same tier costs 90 credits, since the rate never changes.
Standard is the cheaper of two tiers
Kling Video v3 Pro charges 8 credits per second for the same text-to-video request, 33 percent more per second. A 3 second clip is 18 credits on Standard against 24 on Pro.
Vertical aspect ratio rendered exactly as requested
We asked for 9:16 with no starting image, and the output landed at 720 by 1280 pixels, the correct vertical shape for short-form video.
Native audio generation, on by default
The generate_audio setting defaults to true, so the clip includes synchronized sound without an extra request or extra charge.
One prompt, no image required
This variant is text-to-video only. The image-to-video counterpart is a separate model entry at the same per-second price.
One text-to-video request, no reference image, August 26, 2026. 18 credits, about 235 seconds, 720x1280 vertical output at 24fps.
