Release and use
The April 2025 Kling 2.0 launch presents a multimodal visual language connecting reference images and clips with generation requests. Leadership and comparative win-rate claims belong to the developer’s evaluation framework, not an independently verified universal ranking.

Change in creative practice
References can express motion, characters and scenes that language alone specifies poorly. Their selection, rights and reuse consequently enter the creative process. Comparison with Seedance and Flow asks how interfaces distribute control among words, images and time.
