Kling Avatar is the value pick for talking heads: a photo, a voice track and a take that holds up.
Kling Avatar has two tiers on one card. Standard is about a third of the premium price, so it suits volume work: course modules, product explainers, localised variants of the same script.
Pro costs about twice as much per second and is the one to reach for when the shot carries a campaign. Both take the same two inputs: one still portrait and one audio track.

Questions
What is the difference between Kling Avatar Standard and Pro?
Fidelity and price. Standard is roughly a third of the cost of the premium models and is fine for most talking-head work. Pro is about twice Standard per second and is worth it on a hero shot. Both appear in the picker with their token price.
Do I need to write a prompt for Kling Avatar?
No. The prompt is optional guidance on delivery. Leave it empty and the model works from the photo and the audio alone.
How is the Kling Avatar price calculated?
Per second of the video it produces. Kling pads its output slightly beyond the length of the track, so the quote allows for that, and the number is shown before you spend anything.
