Paid plans from $29.90/month unlock Seedance 2.0, 2.0 Fast and full 2.5, with text-to-video, image-to-video and reference-to-video.

Can I use Seedance 2.5 for free without a waitlist?

Yes. There is no waitlist: sign up, verify your email, and start generating in your browser. New accounts get 6 free credits once per network for Seedance 2.5 Mini at 480p (6 credits per 5 seconds). Full Seedance 2.5, up to 30 seconds and up to 4K, needs a plan from $29.90/month.

Can I turn an image into a video with Seedance online for free?

Yes. Upload a portrait, product photo or illustration, describe the motion, and Seedance animates it. Free sign-up credits (6, once per network) work on Image to Video with Seedance 2.5 Mini at 480p only — no video or audio references. Failed generations refund credits automatically. Full models and higher resolutions need a paid plan from $29.90/month.

What is a free text-to-video tool like Seedance?

seedance2video.ai is a browser workspace that runs Seedance models — 2.5, 2.0, 2.0 Fast and 2.5 Mini — for text-to-video, image-to-video and reference-to-video. New accounts get 6 free credits once per network for a 2.5 Mini 480p trial. Type a scene, pick a model and see the credit cost before you submit. It is an independent site, not the model creator's official website.

Which Seedance model should I choose?

Choose Seedance 2.5 when you need up to 30 seconds, larger multimodal reference sets, precise editing or output up to 4K. Seedance 2.0 fits 4–15-second multimodal generation and editing, while 2.5 Mini is positioned for lower-cost drafts and iteration.

What is the difference between Text to Video and Image to Video?

Text to Video starts from a written scene description. Image to Video uses an uploaded image as visual input and combines it with instructions for motion, camera behavior or scene development.

How do I write a Seedance video prompt?

Start with the subject and setting, then add movement, camera direction, lighting and style. For example: “A person walks down a street at night. The camera follows from behind as warm lights reflect on the pavement.” When starting from an image, focus on the motion and changes you want to see.

How do I create a video from an example prompt?

Choose a scene in Seedance Video Prompts and Examples, then select “Use this prompt” to open the generator with that model and prompt selected. Change the subject, setting or camera movement before generating your own video.

How long can a generated video be?

Seedance 2.5 generates up to 30 seconds in one pass and also supports automatic duration. Seedance 2.0 and Mini offer 4 to 15 seconds.

How do I know the generation cost?

The generator calculates and displays the credit cost for the selected model and settings before you submit. Check that displayed amount because costs can vary by configuration.

What does Seedance to Video mean?

On this site, Seedance 2 Video reflects our domain, seedance2video.ai, with 2 read as “to.” Seedance to Video describes creating videos from text, images and references with the Seedance model family, rather than a single model version.

Is this the official Seedance website?

No. This site (seedance2video.ai) is an independent creation workspace that provides access to supported video-generation models. It is not operated by or presented as the model creator's official website.

What happens to my credits if a generation fails?

If a video fails to generate, the credits for that attempt are automatically returned to your account. You only pay for videos that are successfully created.

What happens to the images and videos I upload?

Your uploads are stored using our configured Cloudflare R2 storage service and sent to the selected model provider to generate your video.
