Kling O1 offers a free tier with limited credits. Paid plans start at $9.9/month (Pro) for additional credits and features, or a lifetime plan at $199. Credits are consumed per generation: 5-second videos cost 10 credits, 10-second videos cost 20 credits.
How does it work?
Users write a prompt (up to 5000 characters), optionally upload a first frame and a last frame, select a duration (5 or 10 seconds), and click "Generate Video". The AI processes the inputs and produces a video, which can then be upscaled or downloaded.
