Frequently asked questions

Kling V3 or Veo 3.1: which should I pick?

Kling V3 goes up to 4K, runs 3 to 15 seconds and accepts square format. Veo 3.1 (model: "veo-3.1") stays at 4–8 seconds in 720p or 1080p, in 16:9 or 9:16. For a long or 4K clip, Kling; for a short, polished shot, Veo.

Kling V3 or Seedance 2: which should I pick?

Seedance 2 (model: "seedance-2") takes reference images, videos and audio to pin a character, but stops at 720p. Kling V3 goes up to 4K and offers a negative prompt. Character reference: Seedance; top image quality: Kling.

What durations, resolutions and formats?

Duration: 3 to 15 seconds. Resolutions: 720p, 1080p or 4K. Formats: 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1. With a start image, the format follows it. Audio is on by default; generate_audio: false turns it off.

Can it animate my photo or pin the last frame?

Yes: send image_url for the first frame and last_frame_image_url for the last, and the model fills in the motion between them. Useful to animate a product photo or close a shot.

How do I call Kling V3 through the API?

Send a POST to /v1/videos/generations with your Tchavi key and model: "kling-v3", then prompt, duration, resolution ("720p", "1080p" or "4K") and aspect_ratio. The fields are the same for every video model on Tchavi.

Can I pay with mobile money, without a bank card?

Yes. Top up your Tchavi account with Orange Money, MTN MoMo, M-Pesa or another mobile money operator. No bank card is needed. Credits land as soon as the payment is confirmed and are deducted as you use them.

Is the API compatible with OpenAI's?

Yes. Keep your current OpenAI SDK, just change the base URL to Tchavi's (shown in the API tab) and use your Tchavi key. The rest of your code stays the same.
