Kling 3.0 Turbo API Pricing, Model IDs, Playground, and Integration
Access the new Kling 3.0 Turbo route through EvoLink's unified API. Use text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video with async delivery, per-second pricing, and model IDs built for production routing.
Kling 3.0 Turbo is a newly launched official Kling video route for faster short-form generation. Official list pricing is ¥0.8/s for 720p and ¥1/s for 1080p. On EvoLink, current listed pricing starts at $0.106 per second with 7.2 credits/second at 720p and a 1.25x multiplier for 1080p. New Kling Open Platform API keys are required for Turbo and later new models; legacy keys remain usable for older routes but do not support Kling 3.0 Turbo.

Kling 3.0 Turbo overview and launch facts
Kling 3.0 Turbo is a high-speed video generation route in the Kling AI family by Kuaishou. Two modes - text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video - generate 3-15 second clips at 720p or 1080p with per-second billing.
Use Turbo when a workflow needs a faster short-form generation path without switching away from EvoLink's unified API, task polling, and centralized billing. Turbo is the speed route, not the cheapest one: standard Kling 3.0 has a lower per-second rate. Some warm-up materials used Kling 3.0 Fast as an early label; treat it only as a historical alias.
Kling 3.0 Turbo API video modes and workflow features
Kling 3.0 Turbo Text-to-Video API
Generate videos directly from text prompts with Kling 3.0 Turbo. Describe scenes, actions, and styles in natural language and let the model produce 3-15 second clips faster, ready for marketing, social media, or creative projects.

Kling 3.0 Turbo Image-to-Video API
Animate a first-frame image with Kling 3.0 Turbo. The image-to-video route uses the input image as the starting frame, derives aspect ratio from that image, and supports 720p/1080p output for 3-15 second clips.

Kling 3.0 Turbo Multi-Shot Sequences
Create multi-shot videos with scene transitions through prompt syntax. Kling 3.0 Turbo supports fixed shot formatting in the prompt, with up to six shots whose durations add up to the final video length.

Why teams use Kling 3.0 Turbo through EvoLink
Kling 3.0 Turbo gives teams a faster text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video route through one gateway, making model selection, pricing, and production integration easier to manage.
One API for two core Kling 3.0 Turbo modes
Use the same integration path for text-to-video and image-to-video, instead of splitting implementation across separate vendor setups.
Cleaner production integration and key migration
Async task handling, one EvoLink API key, unified billing, and a clear new-key requirement help teams avoid failed Turbo calls from legacy Kling keys.
Predictable per-second pricing
Official list pricing is ¥0.8/s for 720p and ¥1/s for 1080p, while EvoLink exposes current route pricing and credit multipliers before teams send production traffic.
Kling 3.0 Turbo vs Kling 3.0 vs Kling O3: which route should you use?
Use this as a route selection table. Turbo is the high-speed short-form route, Kling 3.0 is the standard V3 route, and O3 is the control route for reference-to-video and editing.
| Decision point | Kling 3.0 Turbo | Kling 3.0 | Kling O3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best starting point | High-speed 720p/1080p text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video | Standard V3 text-to-video and image-to-video workflows | Reference-to-video, video editing, and advanced 3.0 Omni workflows |
| Primary input | Prompt or first-frame image | Prompt, first frame, or standard V3 image workflow | Prompt, image, reference video, or existing footage |
| Speed and cost posture | Use when speed, short-form iteration, and unit cost matter | Use when existing V3 behavior and rollout stability matter | Use when added control justifies more workflow complexity |
| Editing and references | Not the editing or reference-to-video route | Standard generation, not the advanced editing route | Use for reference guidance, editing, 15s video input/output, and 4K editing input/output |
| Production routing | Default for short social clips, ads, product demos, and prompt variants | Keep for prompts already tuned around standard V3 output | Escalate when the job needs reference media or existing footage editing |

Review and iterate
Download results, compare variations, and reuse the same structure for fast iteration across campaigns.
Kling 3.0 Turbo API capabilities
Text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video access through one unified gateway
Text-to-video generation
Generate videos purely from text descriptions. Kling 3.0 Turbo interprets natural language prompts to produce dynamic video content without requiring any visual input.
Image-to-video transformation
Transform a static first-frame image into a dynamic video. The image-to-video route does not use an end-frame control; composition and aspect ratio come from the input image.
Faster generation
Kling 3.0 Turbo is positioned for faster short-form iteration while preserving the Kling 3.0 workflow shape, helping teams test more video variations inside one API gateway.
Multi-shot support
Create multi-shot videos through prompt-embedded shot syntax. The official format supports up to six storyboards, each with a duration and shot prompt.
Per-second billing
Pay only for what you generate with per-second billing. Videos range from 3 to 15 seconds, giving teams precise cost control for every project.
720p & 1080p quality
Choose between standard 720p and high-quality 1080p output resolution to balance quality and cost for your specific use case.
