What is Kling AI?

Kling AI is a video and image generation platform developed by Kuaishou, the company behind the Kuaishou short-video app. It creates video clips from text prompts or images and also offers AI image generation. Content creators, marketers, short-video producers and hobbyists use it to make realistic or stylized clips without filming. Kling is known for fairly natural motion and realistic physical movement compared with many video generators. Beyond basic text and image to video, it lets you set start and end frames, guide motion in specific areas of an image, and add lip-synced speech to characters. It is available on the web and in mobile apps. A free tier with limited credits lets you try it, and paid plans add more credits, faster generation and higher-quality options.
