>>92833105well technically... runway gen 3 had this level of quality but you had to pay like 25 cents per 5s video (and that's still the price, no login credits, no free monthly credit refill). Runway has a very strict filter however, and I never figured out how to make a good prompt with the free credits they gave.
Meanwhile with kling if you use the daily credits, it's like ~2 cents per video for the same level quality the first month (~5 cents for the second month), but they give lot more free credits compared to runway, you don't need to pay if you have enough accounts.
The problem is that kling is operating at a loss, assuming kling has the same model size as HUNYUAN, it should cost 10 cents per video (hugging face a100 80gb costs $4 per hour, it's priced per minute, 2 minutes = 10 cents), and this is actually proof they are losing money because it's harder to find a free HUNYUAN generation than a free kling generation, it actually costs 10 cents per video, someone has to pay that.
Hailuo in my opinion is losing more money per user, and I think very soon they will probably do the same thing kling did which is remove the daily tokens for free tiers.
