Which Model Should I Use?
Choosing the right AI video model depends on your specific needs. Here is a quick guide to help you decide:
Most Feature-Rich: Seedance 2.0New
The most capable model on Kensa. Free native audio generation (no extra credits), first+last frame control, reference images, 6 aspect ratios, and clips from 4 to 15 seconds. Best for social media content that needs sound and precise narrative control.
Fast Drafts and 2K Output: MiniMax H3New
MiniMax's newest model, launched on July 31, 2026. Text or image to video with audio in every clip, 5 to 15 seconds. 480P and 768P take about 25 seconds; 2K (2560×1440) is on paid plans. 1.5 credits/second at 480P, 2.5 at 768P and 4 at 2K, so a 6-second 768P clip is 15 credits.
Lowest Price per Clip: Grok Image Video
A flat 5 to 15 credits per clip: 6 or 10 seconds at 480p or 720p, from text or an image. Best for quick experiments and high-volume social content where you want many variations.
Flat Price with Audio: Veo 3.1
13 credits for every 8-second clip, audio included. Text, image, first & last frame and reference-image modes make it a good default for testing prompts, short hooks and product reveals.
Best Motion: Kling 3
Realistic motion and physics from a single image (Kling 3 is image-to-video only on Kensa), at 720p or 1080p. Best for realistic human motion, product demos and social media content that needs natural movement.
Budget 1080p: Seedance 1.5 Pro
1080p at 8 credits/second, or from 2 credits/second at 480p, with free audio and 6 aspect ratios including ultrawide 21:9. Best for high-res output on a budget.
Every model supports image-to-video, and all except Kling 3 also support text-to-video. You can try any model with your free credits — no credit card required. Mix and match models across projects to find the best fit for each use case.
