Kling 3.0 — where to access it & real cost

live — official API and aggregators by Kuaishou released 2026-02-05 t2v · i2v · ref2v up to 15s · native 4K
Quick answer verified

Kling 3.0 is openly purchasable today through the official Kuaishou API and through aggregators. Kuaishou launched the model on February 5, 2026 with clips of 3–15 seconds, native audio in five languages and a native 4K mode. The cheapest figure we can cite from a public price list is kie.ai at $0.09 per second in pro mode without audio — $0.90 for a 10-second clip — with standard mode at $0.07/s and 4K at $0.335/s. fal.ai lists both the standard and pro routes but does not show rates without an account. Official per-second pricing sits behind a developer login, so the first-party row on this page carries no number rather than a guessed one.

Reference SKU for all prices on this page: 10s / pro mode / text-to-video / no audio. Kling publishes tiers as std / pro / 4K and does not document their pixel dimensions, so these figures are not directly comparable with 1080p SKUs elsewhere on the site.

Provider board

Every price is the provider's own published figure, converted to this model's reference SKU. Figures we derived rather than read off a price list are marked est.

Billing trap of the week Audio is not free. On kie.ai the same second costs $0.07 in standard mode without audio and $0.10 with it — a 43% surcharge — while pro goes from $0.09 to $0.135. Native audio is the headline feature of 3.0, so quoted "from" prices almost always assume it is switched off. 4K is a separate jump again at $0.335/s, roughly 3.7× the pro rate, which makes a 15-second 4K clip about $5.

For developers — current fallback chain

  • 1 kling-3.0 · official API — first-party route, rates require a developer account
  • 2 kling-3.0 · fal.ai — standard and pro routes listed
  • 3 kling-3.0 · kie.ai — published rate card, credit billing
  • 4 kling-3.0-turbo — cheaper 720p variant when latency matters more than fidelity

Ordering here follows officiality, not price — the cheapest published rate is on the reseller row. JSON: /api/models/kling-3-0/providers

For users — apps & subscriptions

Kling 3.0 is available in the Kling AI consumer app on its own subscription plans, billed in credits rather than per second. Tier contents change often and are tracked separately from the API rows above.

Free to try: the consumer app grants daily credits to signed-in accounts; the API does not have a free tier.
