Seedance 2.5
Seedance 2.5 is a video generation model from ByteDance that supports text-to-video, image-to-video, video editing, and audio generation.
Text and image to video with audio generation
Seedance 2.5 is a video generation model developed by ByteDance and released in July 2026. It supports multiple generation modes including text-to-video, image-to-video, video editing, and video extension, and is served through the Wavespeed provider on MindStudio. The model accepts a range of inputs — text prompts, start and end images, reference images, reference videos, and reference audio — giving users fine-grained control over the output.
Seedance 2.5 is designed for workflows that require flexible video creation from different starting points, whether that means generating a clip from a written description, animating a still image, or extending an existing video. It includes a built-in audio generation toggle, allowing users to produce video with synthesized audio in a single pass. Pricing is usage-based at $0.11 to $1.10 per second of generated video, and the model supports configurable aspect ratios, resolutions, and durations.
