Usage

All media models use the async job queue. Submit a job, then poll for the result.

Step 1: Submit Job

Text-to-Video

const res = await fetch('https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    model: 'kwaivgi/kling-v3.0-turbo',
    prompt: 'A cinematic drone shot over a rugged coastline at golden hour',
    options: {
      aspectRatio: '16:9',
      resolution: '720p',
      duration: '5',
    },
  }),
});
const { data } = await res.json();
// data.jobId — use this to poll for results

curl -X POST https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "kwaivgi/kling-v3.0-turbo", "prompt": "A cinematic drone shot over a rugged coastline", "options": {"aspectRatio": "16:9", "resolution": "720p", "duration": "5"}}'

Image-to-Video

Pass a starting image via imageData to animate it.

const res = await fetch('https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    model: 'kwaivgi/kling-v3.0-turbo',
    prompt: 'Animate this scene — clouds drifting, light changing',
    options: {
      resolution: '720p',
      duration: '5',
    },
    imageData: {
      mimeType: 'image/jpeg',
      base64: '...', // Base64-encoded image
    },
  }),
});

curl -X POST https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "kwaivgi/kling-v3.0-turbo", "prompt": "Animate this scene — clouds drifting, light changing", "options": {"resolution": "720p", "duration": "5"}, "imageData": {"mimeType": "image/jpeg", "base64": "..."}}'

Step 2: Poll for Result

const status = await fetch(`https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/status/${data.jobId}`, {
  headers: { 'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' },
});
const { data: job } = await status.json();
// job.status — "pending" | "processing" | "completed" | "failed"
// job.result.video — { mimeType, base64 } when completed

curl https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/status/JOB_ID \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Features

Text-to-video and image-to-video
720p or 1080p, 3–15 seconds
Faster turnaround than Kling 3.0 Standard and Pro

Pricing

Tier	≈ Cost/sec	5-second video
720p	$0.19	$0.96
1080p	$0.238	$1.19

Prices shown are for a 5-second clip at the default settings; longer clips cost proportionally more. Each job is priced when it's queued — the exact quote for your duration, resolution and options — and charged only if it succeeds. Failed or moderated jobs are free.

Info

Video jobs can take several minutes to complete. When capacity is busy, jobs wait in the queue (status stays pending or processing) — no action needed. Results retained for 1 hour.
