Kling 3.0 Turbo integration

Kling 3.0 Turbo is the fast generation model from the Kling 3.0 family, animating a first-frame image into smooth, high-fidelity video with short processing times.
Kling 3.0 Turbo image-to-video generates a video from a single first-frame image, optionally guided by a text prompt. It outputs high-fidelity video with durations from 3 to 15 seconds, and is optimized for fast generation, making it well suited for animating product shots, artwork, and social media content at scale. Resolution is selected at generation time: use the dedicated 720p generate endpoint for standard high definition or the 1080p generate endpoint for full high definition. Task status and listing use a single generic endpoint, regardless of the resolution. For the full model overview, including the text-to-video mode, see the Kling 3.0 Turbo overview.

​
Key capabilities

  • Image animation: Turn a single first-frame image into motion
  • Resolution by generate endpoint: Dedicated 720p and 1080p generate endpoints
  • Unified task tracking: One generic list endpoint and one generic status endpoint for tasks of any resolution
  • Fast generation: Turbo-optimized pipeline for shorter processing times
  • Flexible durations: Any whole number from 3 to 15 seconds, default 5
  • Optional prompt: Guide motion and style with up to 2500 characters, or omit it to infer motion from the image
  • Async processing: Webhook notifications or polling for task completion
  • 24-hour delivery: Generated MP4 video is returned via a URL valid for 24 hours

​
Use cases

  • Product videos: Animate static product photography for ads and listings
  • Social media content: Bring images to life for Reels, Shorts, and Stories
  • Creative exploration: Add motion to illustrations, concept art, and designs
  • Rapid prototyping: Quickly preview how a still composition moves

Endpoint structure

​
Parameters

Resolution is determined by the generate endpoint you call (-720p or -1080p) and is not a body parameter.

​
Frequently Asked Questions

Resolution is selected by the generate endpoint, not by a body parameter. Call POST /v1/ai/image-to-video/kling-v3-turbo-720p for standard high definition or POST /v1/ai/image-to-video/kling-v3-turbo-1080p for full high definition. Listing and status use the single generic endpoint GET /v1/ai/image-to-video/kling-v3-turbo (and /{task-id}).
Image-to-video accepts JPG, JPEG, and PNG, provided as a publicly accessible URL or a Base64-encoded string (without the data URI prefix). Requirements: minimum 300x300 pixels, maximum 50MB, and an aspect ratio between 1:2.5 and 2.5:1. Only the first frame is supported.
No. The prompt is optional in image-to-video. If you omit it, motion is inferred from the source image. Provide a prompt (up to 2500 characters) to guide the movement, camera behavior, and visual style.
No. Image-to-video does not accept an aspect ratio parameter; the output ratio is inherited from the source image. Use text-to-video if you need to choose 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1.
Any whole-number duration from 3 to 15 seconds (default 5). Shorter durations generate faster.
Submit the request to receive a task ID, then poll the generic GET task endpoint or provide a webhook_url to be notified on completion. The result MP4 is delivered via a URL that remains valid for 24 hours.
Rate limits depend on your subscription tier (see Rate Limits). Pricing varies by resolution and duration (see Pricing).
