Kling 4 is an independent AI video workspace for text-to-video, image-to-video and native audio. Generator names are Kling4.io service tiers powered by Seedance, Grok and Veo; official Kling model news and demos are separate from these generation tiers.
Kuaishou Kling AI model overview
Kling 4, officially written Kling 4.0, is the latest generation of Kuaishou's Kling AI video model family. It follows Kling 1.0 (June 2024), the 2.x series and Kling 3.0, and Kuaishou announced it on September 28, 2026. The Kling 4 AI model generates video from text, images and reference clips, and the lineup also includes a lighter Flash version built for fast, frequent work.
The official specifications: 3-30 second clips at 720p, 1080p or 4K, 10-bit HDR on the 1080p and 4K tiers, up to 10 keyframes, two-channel stereo audio with lip sync across nine languages and a range of accents, prompts up to 8,000 tokens, and omni reference that accepts up to 15 items in total, including up to 10 images and 5 reference videos. Flash renders 3-20 second clips at 720p. Video extension to two minutes is listed as coming soon. The full launch is set for October; Flash opened to limited early access on September 28.
Capabilities
Describe a shot in plain English: subject, action, camera move, lighting and sound. The generator turns it into a cinematic clip in minutes and follows long, multi-part prompts closely. The next model is reported to add longer shots and finer camera control.
Upload a product photo, portrait or storyboard frame and use it as the first frame. The model animates the scene while keeping faces, logos and composition locked to your image, which is ideal when the look is already approved and you only need motion.
The Kling 4 AI model accepts up to 10 keyframe images, so you set the exact beats a shot has to hit instead of rerolling a whole clip. First-and-last-frame control is supported too, and clips run up to 30 seconds natively, long enough for a complete action rather than a fragment.
Omni reference takes up to 15 items in one prompt: up to 10 images, up to 5 reference videos totalling 30 seconds, voice references and up to 7 subjects. Use them to lock a face, an outfit, a camera language or a performance rhythm. Upload only media you are allowed to use.
Two-channel stereo audio is generated with the picture, with lip sync across Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French and Indonesian, plus regional accents. It also renders readable on-screen text and emoji in those languages, which earlier generations struggled to keep stable.
4.0 vs 3.0
A planning comparison, not a benchmark. Every figure comes from Kling's own release notes and API docs, checked on September 29, 2026. The Kling 4 AI model was announced on September 28 and launches in full in October.

The official Kling 3.0 and Kling 4.0 comparison above describes Kuaishou’s models. This site’s generator uses separate service tiers powered by Seedance, Grok and Veo; its available duration and resolution are shown in the settings.
Workflow
No app to install and no waitlist for the current engine. Open kling4.io in any desktop or mobile browser and go from idea to download in three steps.
Choose Text to Video or Image to Video. Lead with the subject, then add the action, camera move, lighting and sound. For image-to-video, upload a sharp JPG, PNG or WebP.
Pick the duration, resolution and aspect ratio: 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for TikTok and Reels, 1:1 for feeds. Switch native audio on or off. The exact credit cost appears before you generate.
Most clips render in one to three minutes. Preview the result, download the MP4 and reuse the prompt to iterate. If a render fails, your credits are refunded automatically.
Use cases
Turn an idea or product image into a short video with our Seedance, Grok and Veo-powered tiers. Choose the duration, resolution and audio options available for your tier, then review the result before publishing.
Turn a single packshot into a rotating hero shot, an unboxing or a lifestyle scene. Test three ad angles for Amazon, Shopify or TikTok Shop before paying for a photo shoot, then keep the winner.
Block scenes, test camera moves and pitch a mood before the shoot. Multi-shot generation keeps characters consistent between cuts, so a storyboard reads like a sequence rather than a mood board.
Batch vertical 9:16 hooks for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts, with voice and sound in the same render. Generate several variations, publish the strongest and iterate on the prompt the same day.
Animate history scenes, science concepts and product tutorials that would be slow or expensive to film, and add narration in your audience's language with native audio.
Start with free credits, then choose a monthly plan or a one-time credit pack. Every option shows estimated video output before checkout, failed renders are refunded, and your credits work across our available video tiers.
