Seedance 2.0 API

Seedance 2.0 API is a powerful tool that uses advanced artificial intelligence to create videos. It is built on ByteDance's AI video generation model,st-ai/super-seed2, and can handle various types of input like images, videos, and audio to create storyboards and full videos.

Benefits

Seedance 2.0 API offers several advantages. It can mix different types of media, such as up to 9 images, 3 videos, and 3 audio clips, in a single creation. It provides precise control over how these media elements are used. The API supports creating videos with natural lip synchronization for over 8 languages, producing coherent stories with multiple scenes from just one request. The videos generated are of high quality, up to 2K resolution, and can be between 4 to 15 seconds long, with generation taking about 60 seconds.

Use Cases

This API is useful for several applications. It can animate a single image to create a video. It allows for character motion transfer, where the movement from one video is applied to a character in an image. It can also create videos that transition smoothly between a specified first and last frame. Additionally, it can generate videos from text descriptions and synchronize character lip movements with audio files. Seedance 2.0 API can also be integrated directly into AI editors, automating the process of creating storyboards and videos from an idea to the final output.

Pricing

The base price for using the Seedance 2.0 API is 40 credits per completion. There are also options for faster video generation. A fast 5-second text-to-video creation costs 50 credits, while a fast 5-second video with video input costs 100 credits. Standard 5-second video with video input is 200 credits. Pricing can also be calculated per second, with fast mode costing 10 to 20 credits per second and standard mode costing 20 to 40 credits per second, depending on whether video input is used.

Vibes

Users can integrate Seedance 2.0 API into their workflow using tools like MCP, which allows for one-click installation and configuration in AI editors. Cursor Skills can be used to automate the entire video creation process, from gathering information and designing storyboards to generating reference images and building prompts. This allows for a seamless experience where users can describe their ideas in natural language, and the AI handles the rest, supporting various scenarios like narrative stories, commercials, and creative transitions.

Additional Information

Seedance 2.0 API is licensed under the MIT license. It can be invoked through MCP, which simplifies integration into AI editors without requiring manual coding. For Cursor and Claude Desktop users, specific configuration files can be set up to use the API. The API supports different function modes, including 'Omni Reference' for multi-modal mixing and 'First/Last Frames' for image-to-video generation with frame control. The API reference provides details on base URLs, endpoints, and authentication methods.
