Billing

How Kling 3.0 seconds are billed

Full details in the billing docs.

  • Unit. One second of generated video. A request for 3–15 s is billed for exactly that many seconds at its resolution's rate.
  • Audio. Native audio has its own, higher per-second rate; silent clips use the lower one.
  • Tasks. Text to video and image to video share the same per-second rates.
  • No request fee. Nothing is added per request: a clip costs its seconds times the rate.
  • Failed = free. Failed generations, and jobs cancelled while queued, are refunded in full.
  • Price first. POST /v1/quote/kuaishou/kling-3.0/text-to-video returns the exact price of any request, free.
