A practical comparison of four AI video generation models in 2026: Seedance 2.0, Sora 2, Kling 3.0, and Veo 3.1. Rather than ranking by benchmark scores, the analysis evaluates each model across six real production scenarios based on three key attributes: reference input capacity, native audio/lip-sync support, and multi-scene continuity. Seedance 2.0 wins three of six scenarios due to its 9-image reference stacking and native lip-sync. Sora 2 leads on physics realism. Veo 3.1 wins for premium single-shot cinematic work. Kling 3.0 is cheapest for concept testing but weak on production-grade continuity. The core advice: match the model to the specific production job rather than chasing benchmark winners.
