First pick · Kuaishou
Kling
For a video worth watching, open Kling first in the mainland. It is close to Vidu and Hailuo on many shots.
How to finish this job in mainland China
Where to open it. A Kuaishou product. The Chinese page kling.ai/zh opened. If the page is slow on a particular network, use their client for China. This is not the “may need a special network” case of a product outside China. https://kling.ai/zh
What it is good for. For a video worth watching, open Kling first in the mainland. It is close to Vidu and Hailuo on many shots.
What it is not. Not the editor for subtitles and the finished cut. That is CapCut. On many shots it is close to Vidu and Hailuo, and this list does not score them.
Note
Kling is Kuaishou’s video product. klingai.com and klingai.kuaishou.com redirect to kling.ai, and the Chinese entrance is /zh. The official site currently leads with Kling 4.0. Public reports that 4.0 Flash fully opened date to 4 November, before this week, so it is not listed as new this week. Kling, Vidu, and Hailuo can all produce a clip, and the difference is not large enough to score. Kling is the first pick because the product is built around video and the entrance in China is clear. Editing and subtitles go to CapCut.
Close
Vidu and Hailuo are close on many shots. This list does not score them.
Price
The official site has membership and credits. Amounts change often, and this list does not copy them.
Chinese
It has a Chinese web page.
