  -d '{
    "model": "kling-2.6",
    "prompt": "a drone shot over a coastline"
  }'

Same OpenAI-compatible endpoint — just swap base_url and key.

API

An asynchronous endpoint: the call returns immediately in queued, and you poll GET /v1/videos/{id} for the result. The finished mp4 is re-hosted on our CDN, and only a completed render is charged.
