Check Pass condition If it fails

Signup and billing state Dashboard confirms whether API keys require billing or manual approval. Compare Kling AI (Kuaishou) alternatives or route through a gateway before inviting users.

First request from target region A minimal request succeeds from your deployment region and mainland-China test point if relevant. Do not ship cron jobs or public demos until latency, DNS, TLS, and auth are repeatable.

Quota, retry, and error shape Rate-limit behavior matches the current N/A note or official dashboard values. Cap retries, add request logging, and keep a second route for 429/5xx bursts.

Cost per accepted task Real prompts stay within your target token, query, image-credit, or compute budget. Use cheaper primary routes, caching, shorter prompts, or fallback only after validation failure.
