Seedance 2.5 and Kling 3.0 side by side

Per-second prices are the lowest across lengths and versions at that resolution. Resolution is what the model delivers (for Kling 3.0, measured on delivered files, not taken from the studio label). Render time runs from request to finished video on customer jobs over the last 30 days (staff accounts excluded), all lengths and resolutions together, as in the AI video cost and speed index; it is published only for versions with enough customer jobs.
