Seedance 2.0 Mini AI Video Generator
Fast, Affordable AI Video with Native Audio — Create Three Ways
Seedance 2.0 Mini is ByteDance's faster, lower-cost video model. Turn a text prompt, a single image, or a set of reference images and clips into a polished video with synchronized sound effects, ambience, and lip-synced speech at no extra cost. Choose 480p for speed or 720p for greater detail, set a duration from 4 to 15 seconds, and pick from seven aspect ratios, including Auto.
Built as the speed- and cost-optimized version of Seedance 2.0, Mini keeps what matters: cinematic motion, native audio, and flexible inputs. Image mode animates a first frame and can create a controlled transition to an optional last frame. Reference mode accepts up to nine images (mention them as @Image1, @Image2 in your prompt), three videos, and three audio tracks, helping you maintain characters, styles, motion, and sound across multiple videos. There's no subscription—you pay only for what you generate.

Seedance 2.0 Mini FAQ
What is Seedance 2.0 Mini?
Seedance 2.0 Mini is ByteDance's faster, lower-cost version of Seedance 2.0. It creates 4–15-second videos at 480p or 720p from text, a single image, or reference media, complete with native synchronized audio.
How is Mini different from Seedance 2.0?
Mini is optimized for speed and cost. It keeps cinematic motion and native audio with three input modes, but runs faster and cheaper — ideal for rapid iteration and high-volume content.
What input modes does it support?
Three: text-to-video (generate from a prompt), image-to-video (animate a starting frame with an optional end frame), and reference-to-video (guide the result with up to 9 reference images plus up to 3 reference videos and 3 reference audio tracks).
Does it generate audio?
Yes. Synchronized audio — including sound effects, ambience, and lip-synced speech — is generated by default at no extra cost. You can turn it off if you only need video.
What resolutions, durations, and aspect ratios are available?
Resolutions are 480p (fastest) and 720p. Durations run from 4 to 15 seconds, or Auto. Aspect ratios include 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 9:16, and Auto.
How does pricing work?
There's no subscription — you pay per generation with credits. Cost scales with resolution and duration, so shorter 480p clips cost less than longer 720p videos.
