Holds physical motion together on takes where rival models start breaking hands and faces, which is how a Chinese app reached the revenue list

About the company
Kling comes from Kuaishou, China’s second-largest short-video platform and a direct rival to Douyin, which had been accumulating video data long before generative models existed. It launched publicly in June 2024 and reached the global revenue rankings inside a year — unusual for a Chinese app outside gaming. Its one legible strength is motion coherence: where other models break anatomy two seconds in, Kling more often carries a take to the end. The trade-off sits in the pricing table, where 4K unlocks only on the third tier and free credits burn off within a day rather than rolling over.
