What Is It

What is Seedance 2.0 — and what can it do?

The facts you need before generating your first video.

Seedance 2.0 is ByteDance's AI video model — and it handles text, images, video clips, and audio all at once. Feed it your references and a prompt, and it outputs cinematic video with real audio: lip-synced dialogue, background music, ambient sound. No studio, no timeline editor, no waiting list.

Each project accepts up to 12 files: 9 images, 3 video clips (combined ≤15s), and 3 audio files (combined ≤15s). Tag your assets directly in the prompt using @Image1, @Video1, or @Audio1 — the model reads exactly which files you mean.

Videos run from 4 to 15 seconds at up to 1080p, in six aspect ratios: 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, and 1:1. Seedance 2.0 is available online right now — no download, no GPU required.

Core Features of Seedance 2.0

6 Things Seedance 2.0 Can Do That Other AI Video Tools Can't

Six capabilities built for real creative workflows — not just one-clip demos.

Multimodal Input

Combine text, images, video, and audio in one generation

Upload up to 9 images, 3 video clips (combined ≤15s), and 3 audio files (combined ≤15s) as references. In your prompt, tag any asset using @Image1, @Video1, or @Audio1 — for example: "Use @Image1 as the first frame with @Video1's camera movement." The model reads exactly which assets you mean.

Reference Anything

Describe what to replicate in plain language

Upload a reference file and describe what to replicate in plain language — motion patterns, camera angles, visual effects, character appearances, or scene compositions. The model handles the rest. No technical parameters required.

Built-in Audio Generation

Native audio with automatic lip sync

Seedance 2.0 automatically adds sound effects and background music that fit your scene. Upload an audio file to sync video actions to specific beats — including lip-synced dialogue where characters speak in time with your audio.

Consistency

Characters and scenes stay stable across frames

Faces, clothing, text overlays, scene environments, and visual styles remain consistent throughout the generated clip. This reduces the character drift and style jumps that are common in other AI video tools.

Camera & Motion Replication

Copy camera moves from a reference video

Upload a video clip and the model extracts its camera movement, pacing, and motion patterns. Apply them to your own subject — without writing detailed camera direction in the prompt.

Video Extension & Editing

Extend or edit without regenerating from scratch

Add seconds to an existing video, merge multiple clips, or modify a specific segment — replacing characters, adding elements, or adjusting actions — while keeping the surrounding content unchanged.

How to Use It

How to Generate AI Videos with Seedance 2.0 in 3 Steps

Upload references, write a prompt, and download your video. No installation, no GPU — works directly in your browser.

STEP 01

Upload your assets

Upload images, video clips, or audio files as references. You can combine up to 12 files: 9 images, 3 video clips (total ≤15s), and 3 audio files (total ≤15s).

STEP 02

Write your prompt

Describe what you want the model to generate. Tag your uploaded files directly in the prompt using @Image1, @Video1, or @Audio1 to tell the model exactly which assets to use and how.

STEP 03

Generate and refine

Select your resolution (480p / 720p / 1080p), aspect ratio, and duration (4–15s). Run the generation and download your clip. To refine, upload the result and make targeted adjustments.

FAQ

Seedance 2.0 FAQ — Your Questions Answered

Answers about what it does, what it costs, and how to use it.

Seedance 2.0 is a multimodal AI video generation model from ByteDance. It accepts text, images, video clips, and audio as inputs, and produces cinematic videos with native sound — including dialogue with lip sync, background music, and ambient effects. Videos run from 4 to 15 seconds at up to 1080p resolution, and the model is publicly available right now.
Yes. Upload up to 9 images as reference inputs. The model can use your first image as the opening frame, animate from it, or reference character appearance, product style, or scene composition from multiple images at once. Tag specific images in your prompt using @Image1, @Image2, and so on.
Yes. Upload up to 3 video clips (combined ≤15 seconds) as references. The model can replicate camera movements, motion patterns, effects, or pacing from those clips and apply them to your new generation. You can also use video inputs for extension — uploading an existing clip and generating content that continues it naturally.
Seedance 2.0 accepts four input types: text prompts, images (up to 9), video clips (up to 3, combined ≤15s), and audio files (up to 3, combined ≤15s). You can combine all four in one generation — up to 12 files total. Audio must be paired with at least one image or video; it can't be used alone.
Seedance 2.0 generates videos between 4 and 15 seconds. You select the duration before generating. If you need longer content, you can extend an existing clip by uploading it back as a reference and generating additional seconds that continue seamlessly from where it ends.
Seedance 2.0 supports 480p, 720p, and 1080p. Higher resolutions use more credits per second. 480p is the most credit-efficient option; 1080p produces the sharpest output for professional use. The aspect ratio is also selectable: 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, or 1:1.
Seedance 2.0 generates audio automatically alongside the video — including context-appropriate sound effects, background music, and ambient sound. If your video includes a speaking character, the model can generate lip-synced dialogue. You can also upload your own audio file to have the model sync visual actions to a specific beat or track.
Yes. Upload an existing video clip as a reference and describe what to change. You can replace characters, add or remove elements, modify actions, or extend the clip — while keeping the rest of the content unchanged. This lets you make targeted edits without regenerating the entire video from scratch.
Seedance 2.0 is available now and supports videos up to 15 seconds at up to 1080p, with up to 12 reference assets. Seedance 2.5 — launching in July 2026 — extends these limits significantly: videos up to 30 seconds, native 4K output, up to 50 reference assets including 3D models, and local area editing. If you need to generate today, Seedance 2.0 is the right choice.
