WAN 2.2 Plus vs Kling Video v3 Standard Text
Generated on PixelDojo. Produced by PixelDojo's generation pipeline.
WAN 2.2 Plus only takes a starting image and costs 3 credits at its cheapest setting. Kling Video v3 Standard Text only takes a prompt and costs 18 credits at its cheapest setting, 6 credits per second with a 3 second floor. We ran the same product description through both on August 26, 2026, one as an image-to-video job and one as a text-to-video job, since that is the only way either model accepts it. WAN 2.2 Plus finished in about 35 seconds. Kling Video v3 Standard Text finished in about 49 seconds and added a synced audio track on its own.

Kling Video v3 Standard Text

How It Works
How we ran the comparison:
Match the input to what each model accepts
WAN 2.2 Plus ran image-to-video from the earbuds product still. Kling Video v3 Standard Text ran text-to-video from the same description with no image, because that is the only mode either one supports.
Use each model's cheapest duration
WAN 2.2 Plus at 480p for 3 credits, Kling Video v3 Standard Text at its 3 second floor for 18 credits.
Check the returned file, not just the request
We measured the real resolution, length, frame rate, and audio presence on both finished files.
The Pixel Dojo Advantage
| Others | Pixel Dojo |
|---|---|
| Input required | WAN 2.2 Plus is image-to-video only. It always needs a starting image and will not run from a prompt alone. Kling Video v3 Standard Text is the reverse: text-to-video only, no image input accepted. |
| Price | WAN 2.2 Plus is a flat rate by resolution, 3 credits at 480p and 10 at 1080p, no matter the duration. Kling Video v3 Standard Text charges 6 credits per second with a 3 second floor, so its cheapest job is 18 credits and its 5 second default is 30. |
| Measured turnaround | WAN 2.2 Plus took about 35 seconds in our run. Kling Video v3 Standard Text took about 49 seconds for a shorter 3 second clip. |
| What came back | WAN 2.2 Plus returned 624 by 624 pixels, 5.0 seconds, 30 frames per second, no audio track. Kling Video v3 Standard Text returned 1280 by 720 pixels, 3.04 seconds, 24 frames per second, with a synced audio track we did not have to request. |
| Duration range | WAN 2.2 Plus offers a duration field but the price does not move with it, only with resolution. Kling Video v3 Standard Text runs 3 to 15 seconds and the price scales directly with however many seconds you choose. |
| If you actually have a starting image | Kling has an image-to-video sibling, Kling Video v3 Standard Image, at the same 6 credits per second rate, so switching from WAN to Kling with a photo in hand does not mean losing the Kling look. |
