The crossover happens at 1080p. Kling 3 Turbo charges 22 credits/s for 1080p with audio, while Seedance 2.0 charges 33 credits/s — making Kling 33% cheaper at Full HD. For a 5-second 1080p clip, that's 110 credits (Kling) vs 165 credits (Seedance) — a savings of 55 credits per clip.

The optimal strategy: use Seedance 2.0 at 480p for rapid prototyping and concept validation (27 credits for a 3-second clip), then switch to Kling 3 Turbo at 1080p for the final render (110 credits for 5 seconds). This approach gives you the cheapest iteration and the best value 1080p output.
