Overview

Kling VIDEO O3 Standard is a cost-efficient multimodal video generation model that produces HD video with synchronized native audio from text or images.

It is designed for balanced performance, offering strong visual quality, temporal stability, and audio alignment while optimizing for speed and cost. Kling O3 Standard supports reference-based generation, structured multi-prompt sequencing, and prompt-driven video editing across short-form clips.

How it Works

Kling VIDEO O3 Standard uses a unified multimodal pipeline that combines text understanding, optional image or video conditioning, and temporal modelling to generate stable HD video with aligned audio.

Prompt Interpretation

The model analyses prompts to determine subjects, actions, environments, pacing, tone, and camera direction. These signals guide motion, framing, and synchronized audio generation across the clip.

Image-to-Video

Providing a reference image anchors subject identity, composition, or style. Output dimensions are inferred automatically from the input image, helping preserve layout and visual continuity.

Reference-Guided Generation

You can provide up to seven reference images (or four when using a reference video) to influence character identity, styling, or visual features. A single reference video may also be used for feature guidance.

Multi-Prompt Sequencing

Kling O3 Standard supports up to six sequential prompt segments. This enables structured shot progression within a single 3–15 second clip.

Native Video & Audio Generation

Video and audio are generated together. Native audio may include dialogue, ambient sound, and environmental effects synchronized to the visual timeline. The model prioritizes temporal stability across frames.

Key Features

  • Text-to-Video and Image-to-Video
    Generate HD video from text or reference imagery.
  • Cost-Efficient Performance
    Balanced quality, speed, and pricing.
  • Structured Multi-Prompt Support
    Up to six sequential prompt segments.
  • Reference-Based Control
    Supports images and a single reference video.
  • Native Audio Output
    Dialogue and ambient sound generated alongside visuals.
  • Prompt-Based Video Editing
    Modify existing video while maintaining temporal coherence.

How to Use

  1. Write a detailed prompt describing subjects, actions, and camera behaviour.
  2. (Optional) Provide reference images or a reference video.
  3. Use multi-prompt segments for structured sequencing if needed.
  4. Select duration and supported dimensions.
  5. Submit the request and retrieve the generated clip.

Example prompt:
A street food market at night, handheld camera movement weaving through stalls, a vendor speaking to a customer, warm ambient chatter and distant traffic sounds.

Tips for Better Results

  • Use multi-prompt segments to control shot progression.
  • Keep subject descriptions consistent across segments.
  • Use reference images to stabilize character identity.
  • Test shorter durations before scaling to 15 seconds.
