Developer docs, API terms and pricing render only with JavaScript.\n\n**Vidu API.** Q3 Turbo from $0.035 a second at 540p, about half that off-peak. No llms.txt, OpenAPI file or error-code reference.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Kling AI API\n\n1. Sign a JWT (HS256) with `iss` set to your AccessKey and a 30 minute `exp`, then send it as a bearer token\n2. Generate a new key pair if you need Kling 3.0 Turbo. Older keys don't reach it\n3. Create with POST /v1/videos/text2video or /v1/videos/image2video, then poll the task id until it succeeds\n4. Take model IDs and prices from kling.ai/llms.txt. The HTML docs need JavaScript\n5. Email support@kling.ai to revoke training use of your Input. The terms don't exempt API calls\n\n### Vidu API\n\n1. Send `Authorization: Token $VIDU_API_KEY`. The scheme is Token, not Bearer\n2. POST the task, then poll the Get Creation endpoint by task id or set `callback_url`\n3. Set `off_peak` only for jobs that can wait up to 48 hours. It roughly halves the credit rate\n4. Set `audio` to true for dialogue and sound on Q3. It's off by default\n5. Keep the AI-generated label on outputs. The terms forbid removing it\n\n## Other comparisons with Kling AI API or Vidu API\n\n- [Alibaba Wan (Model Studio) vs Kling AI API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/alibaba-wan-vs-kling.md)\n- [Alibaba Wan (Model Studio) vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/alibaba-wan-vs-vidu.md)\n- [Google Veo vs Kling AI API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/google-veo-vs-kling.md)\n- [Google Veo vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/google-veo-vs-vidu.md)\n- [Kling AI API vs Luma AI API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kling-vs-luma.md)\n- [Kling AI API vs MiniMax Video API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kling-vs-minimax-video.md)\n- [Kling AI API vs OpenAI Sora API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kling-vs-openai-sora.md)\n- [Kling AI API vs Pika API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kling-vs-pika.md)\n- [Kling AI API vs PixVerse API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kling-vs-pixverse.md)\n- [Kling AI API vs Runway API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kling-vs-runway.md)\n- [Luma AI API vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/luma-vs-vidu.md)\n- [MiniMax Video API vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/minimax-video-vs-vidu.md)\n- [OpenAI Sora API vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/openai-sora-vs-vidu.md)\n- [Pika API vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/pika-vs-vidu.md)\n- [PixVerse API vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/pixverse-vs-vidu.md)\n- [Runway API vs Vidu API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/runway-vs-vidu.md)\n",
