It has no native audio and no reference-video support, and remains available mainly for existing integrations.

Commercial use — Not established

Output use is governed by Kling's Terms of API Paid Service (https://kling.ai/document-api/guides/protocols/paid-service); that document could not be retrieved for review, so commercial-use rights are recorded as unverified rather than assumed.

The licence notes recorded during research were read for a commercial-use position and did not state one. Read the licence before you rely on any of this. Nothing on this page is legal advice, and this site does not tell you a model is cleared for commercial use.

Strengths

  • Same low per-second price as Kling 2.6 silent output
  • Widely mirrored on third-party aggregators, so easy to A/B against other providers

Weaknesses

  • Only two fixed durations (5s and 10s)
  • No native audio, no video reference, no 4K
  • Superseded by 2.6 and the 3.0 family
