   Create an account on the official site (klingai.com). Once you log in, you receive free credits and can try video generation right away.

   Choose "Text to Video" or "Image to Video." You can also animate an image you already have.

3. Enter your prompt and settings

   Specify the content of the video you want to create with a prompt, and set the length, aspect ratio, model version, camera work, and more.

4. Generate and review

   Run the generation, and after a while the video is output. If you don't like it, you can adjust the prompt and recreate it.

• Image generation

  In addition to video, it also supports generating still images (AI images).

Pricing

Pricing is a rough guide as of June 2026. It uses a credit system, and since amounts are in US dollars, the yen equivalent fluctuates with exchange rates. Amounts may change due to campaigns such as first-month discounts. Check the official pricing page for the latest details.

*Granted credits generally do not roll over. Standard through Premier are cheaper billed annually. Whether commercial use is allowed varies by plan.
