Key features and benefits
Lower-cost Seedance 2.0
Same multimodal capabilities as Seedance 2.0 at about half the credit rate. Use Mini for high-volume pipelines and prototyping; switch to Seedance 2.0 when you want the full 2.0 Fast stack.
Native synchronized audio
Audio and video are generated together—dialogue, effects, and music stay aligned with picture. Put spoken words in double quotes for lip-synced delivery.
Image-to-video and references
Condition on a first frame (and optional last frame), plus extra reference images when available. Influencer scenes can pass speech audio so output length follows the clip.
