Ehsan's Growth Take
Kling proved that the best AI video models aren't exclusively coming from San Francisco. The 2-minute coherent generation is a real differentiator — Runway still struggles past 10 seconds. For teams comfortable with a Chinese platform, the price-to-quality ratio is the best available. Watch this space closely.
