Seedance
ByteDance's AI video generator that creates 5-12 second clips from text, images, or video references with consistent characters and camera movement.
What is Seedance?
Seedance is ByteDance's AI video generation model that turns text prompts, images, or video clips into short video sequences.
Version 2.0 (released February 2026) works as a "reference-first" system. You upload an image or clip to set the visual style, then add a text prompt to guide the action. It keeps characters consistent across shots and handles realistic camera movements like pans and push-ins.
Most builders access it through the Jimeng AI platform or CapCut Pro. It's particularly useful for creating product demos, ad variants, and UGC-style content where you need the same look across multiple clips without re-prompting everything.
Requires ByteDance account and real-name verification. Members start at 69 yuan (~$10/month). Some users get free trial credits during rollout.
