What is Seedance 2.0?
Seedance 2 is ByteDance's video model that turns text or images into moving video. Unlike tools that render silent clips, it can produce shots with dialogue and lip sync and generate the audio in the same pass, so a talking scene comes out finished instead of needing a second sound step. Alongside text-to-video, the model supports start and end frames plus multimodal references built from images, video, and audio, so you can steer a shot toward what you pictured rather than re-rolling the prompt until it lands.
Here it runs 480p to 1080p at 4 to 10 seconds, which covers everything from a quick social clip to a polished hero cut; the model itself is documented up to 4K. On SayMaker, Seedance runs, the credit estimate updates before you commit, and failed generations are refunded automatically (unless it broke the content policy).
It sits alongside faster, lower-cost variants, so you can test an idea cheaply and switch to the full model only when a clip earns the higher quality and resolution.

How Seedance 2 video generation works
Choose an input method, set resolution and length, and the credit estimate updates before you generate.
Prompted moving shots
Describe the subject, motion, camera, and mood in one prompt, and the model turns that description into a moving shot with matching pacing.
Flexible input control
Start from a text prompt, from start and end frames, or from image, video, and audio references when you want tighter control over the result.
Matched sound generation
The model writes sound that matches the shot in the same run, so a spoken or musical clip finishes in one pass — there is no separate audio step and no separate charge.
The tiers here charge more per second the higher they go. When a shot only needs one quality level and picking a tier is just overhead, MiniMax H3 returns a fixed 2K and bills a single flat rate.
Continuous full-body motion is where this model separates from ones built mainly for short camera moves — a dance is a single unbroken action, and a model that quietly resets between beats gives you limbs that jump. If that is the shot you want, the AI dance video generator starts from one photo with the framing already set up for it.
When Seedance 2 is the right pick
Reach for this model when you want video and sound in one generation instead of two, and when reference material should steer the shot rather than luck. The three variants let you trade quality for speed and cost without changing your workflow. That flexibility matters most when a project mixes quick social cuts with a few hero shots, because the same prompt and the same references carry across every variant without a change to your workflow.
Audio in a single generation
The model generates matching audio in the same pass, so dialogue and lip-sync clips need no separate step.
Image, video & audio references
Beyond start and end frames, it accepts image, video, and audio references to direct the result.
Fast & Mini for speed and cost
Use the full model for quality, or the Fast and Mini variants when speed or cost matters most.
Seedance 2 features
From text-to-video to native audio, the model covers the parts of a shot that usually take separate tools.
Text to video
Turn subject, motion, camera, and mood into video from one prompt.
Start / end frames
Pin a still to the first or last frame to lock the motion.
Multimodal references
Pass image, video, and audio as references to direct the shot.
Native audio
Audio always comes with the shot — the model writes it in the same pass, at no extra credits and with nothing to configure.
480p–1080p output
Render at 480p, 720p or 1080p to match the use.

What each model costs in credits
A failed run is refunded automatically. The exact estimate in the generator varies by model, length, resolution, audio, and number of images.
| Type | Model | Credit cost |
|---|---|---|
| Video | Seedance 2.5 | The long-take tier, priced per second: 5s 480p ≈ 525 credits, 5s 720p ≈ 1,185. A full 30s take runs ≈ 3,150 at 480p and ≈ 7,090 at 720p. |
| Video | Seedance 2.0 | Supplying a starting frame or clip costs less than starting from words alone: 6s 720p ≈ 565 credits from an image, ≈ 925 from text. Scales with resolution and length. |
| Video | Seedance 2 Fast | Faster and lower cost. 6s 720p text-to-video ≈ 745 credits. |
| Video | Seedance 2 Mini | The cheapest tier of the Seedance 2 family. 6s 720p ≈ 465 credits, 6s 480p ≈ 215 credits. |

| Video | Veo 3.1 | Billed per video, not per second, and the tier you pick is the whole price: Lite ≈ 115 credits at 720p and ≈ 135 at 1080p, Fast ≈ 225 at 720p, Quality ≈ 940 at 720p. |
| Video | Kling 3.0 | Audio raises the rate by about half. 6s 720p ≈ 320 credits silent, ≈ 455 with audio; 1080p ≈ 405 and ≈ 610. |

| Image | Seedream 5.0 Lite | Flat pricing — 20 credits per image whether you generate or edit. |
Seedance 2 FAQ
Common questions about the Seedance 2 AI video generator.
Seedance 2 is ByteDance's video model that turns text or images into video. It supports start and end frames plus image, video, and audio references, and it can generate audio in the same pass. Output here runs 480p–1080p at 4 to 10 seconds.
Yes. The model adds sound that matches the shot in the same generation, which suits dialogue and lip-sync clips without a second step.
Credits depend on resolution, length, and input. For example, 720p at 6 seconds is about 925 credits. The estimate appears before you generate, and a failed run is refunded automatically unless it broke the content policy.
Yes. Pass start and end frames or image and video references, and the model generates moving video from them, which is the fastest way to animate a still you already have.
Describe the subject, motion, camera work, and mood in detail. Adding references keeps the composition and flow stable across the clip.
Fast and Mini are faster, lower-cost versions of the model. Use the full Seedance 2 for quality, or Fast and Mini when speed or cost matters most.
Fast is for iterating: same family, lower cost, quicker turnaround. Switch to 2.0 for the final render — it holds detail and motion better at 720p and 1080p, which is exactly the shot you keep.
