See what the Seedance API can do on Atlas Cloud: multimodal reference inputs, native audio, director-level camera work, and real-world physics, rendered from 480p up to 4K through one OpenAI-compatible key.
Feed the Seedance 2.0 model up to 12 reference files across images, video, and audio in one request, then point it at each reference to lock composition, motion, camera language, and style. It turns scattered source material into one coherent, art-directed shot.
Across fast motion and multiple cuts, the Seedance 2.0 model holds facial features, clothing detail, and visual style steady, so a character keeps the same identity from the first frame to the last. This is what makes long-form content and brand storytelling reliable.
Describe the shot in plain language and the Seedance API executes it, from dolly zooms and rack focus to orbital tracking and handheld drift. Complex camera work that trips up other models renders smoothly in a single unbroken take.
Objects fall, collide, and carry weight the way they should, while cloth tears, liquids splash, and high-action sequences stay believable. The Seedance API keeps motion stable through collisions and complex interactions.
Seedance 2.0 and v1.5 Pro generate sound in the same pass as the picture, with phoneme-level lip sync across multiple languages. Motion, cuts, and on-screen action stay locked to the beat and the dialogue, so nothing drifts out of time. Point it at a music track and the scene moves with the rhythm.
The top Seedance 2.0 model now renders native 4K, holding fine texture, lighting, and depth that survive on large screens and tight crops. The same prompt scales from quick low-resolution drafts up to a final 4K master. You set the resolution per request to balance speed and quality.
Beyond fresh generation, the Seedance 2.0 reference-to-video endpoint restyles existing footage, swaps elements, and blends clips. It also extends a video from its final frame with smooth transitions, so you revise or lengthen a sequence without starting over.
Generate several shots and camera angles inside one clip of up to 15 seconds, with continuity from cut to cut. The model carries characters and setting across each shot, so you build a short narrative in a single generation instead of stitching clips together.
The Seedance API reaches the entire family through one OpenAI-compatible key, from Lite and Fast tiers for rapid iteration to Pro and 2.0 for final renders. Switch models by changing a single parameter, with no separate integrations and no waitlist.

Stylized 3D animated scene, glossy rendering, with rapid scene changes and high-speed action in 15 seconds. Scene 1 (0 to 3s), wide low-angle shot on a rooftop at dusk: a sleek silver robot crouches, panels flipping and folding as it transforms, steam venting from its joints while the camera pushes in. Scene 2 (3 to 6s), hard cut to a side tracking shot: the robot sprints across collapsing rooftops, leaping gaps as tiles shatter and tumble into the street far below. Scene 3 (6 to 9s), whip pan to a high drone angle: it slides under a falling billboard, sparks spraying, then rolls back onto its feet without breaking stride. Scene 4 (9 to 12s), fast push-in close-up: its glowing blue eyes flare, mechanical irises snapping into focus, light reflecting across the metal face. Scene 5 (12 to 15s), low hero angle: the robot launches off a ledge, boosters igniting in a burst of light, and rockets upward past skyscrapers as the camera spins around it. Vivid saturated colors, dramatic rim light, soft global illumination, glossy metal textures, dynamic camera, motion blur.

Fast-paced cinematic sequence, multiple hard shot cuts in 15 seconds. Shot 1, low tracking shot: a golden retriever bursts off its leash and bolts into a crowded outdoor flower market, knocking a bucket of tulips that scatter across the cobblestones. Shot 2, hard cut to a side tracking shot: the dog weaves between stalls, baskets of roses and sunflowers wobbling as petals lift into the air in its wake. Shot 3, whip pan to a high angle: a vendor lunges to catch a toppling flower cart, blooms spilling across the aisle as shoppers dodge. Shot 4, sudden low POV: the dog skids around a corner of hanging flower garlands, brushing through them so petals rain down over the lens. Shot 5, low hero angle: it leaps over a fruit crate into a sunbeam, mouth open and tongue out, an owner running into frame behind it. Warm natural daylight, soft shadows, drifting petals, shallow depth of field, handheld energy, photorealistic.

Turn a product image into a polished demo or campaign spot. Seedance 2.0 preserves logos, colors, and material detail across motion and lighting changes, letting marketing teams generate on-brief ad variants from a single reference instead of booking a shoot.
Convert scripts, storyboards, and concept art into cinematic previs. With director-level camera control and multi-shot continuity, studios can block out scenes, camera moves, and environments before committing to a full production pipeline.
Feed in a music track and let native audio drive the cut. Seedance 2.0 aligns motion, transitions, and scene energy to rhythm and lip movement, making music video production and beat-synced ads fast to generate and tight to the beat.
Go beyond fresh generation: the Seedance 2.0 reference-to-video endpoint restyles existing footage, swaps elements, and extends a clip from its final frame with smooth transitions, so teams can revise or lengthen a sequence without starting over.
Build serialized, character-consistent short films where a face, outfit, and visual style hold steady from shot to shot. IP and environments stay uniform across cuts, ready for brand narratives and episodic social content.

The Seedance API gives developers programmatic access to ByteDance's Seedance family of video generation models on Atlas Cloud. It turns text, images, and reference media into cinematic video, and you reach every model in the lineup through one OpenAI-compatible key.
Teams use the Seedance API for social and short-form video, product and ad creatives, film and game pre-visualization, music videos, and multi-shot brand storytelling. Because output stays consistent across shots, it suits both one-off clips and high-volume content pipelines.
It depends on the model. The Seedance 2.0 line accepts text, images, video, and audio in a single request, while earlier tiers like v1.5 Pro and v1 Pro work from text and image inputs. You combine these to control composition, motion, style, and sound.
Seedance 2.0 is the multimodal flagship with reference inputs and native audio, and 2.0 Fast trades some fidelity for lower latency. Seedance v1.5 Pro focuses on audio-visual cinematic generation, while v1 Pro is the text and image to video workhorse with Fast variants for cost-flexible output. All of them are available through the same Seedance API.
Use Seedance 2.0 when you need multimodal references, native audio, or 4K final renders, and pick a Fast tier when speed and iteration matter more than maximum quality. For straightforward text or image to video at lower cost, v1 Pro is a solid starting point. Since one key reaches the whole lineup, you can switch models by changing a single parameter.
Resolution spans 480p up to native 4K on the top Seedance model, so you can draft cheaply and master at high resolution from the same prompt. Clip length runs from 4 to 15 seconds depending on the model, with multiple shots and transitions possible inside a single generation.
Yes. The Seedance 2.0 model and v1.5 Pro generate sound in the same pass as the video, so dialogue lands on the lips and effects land on the frame. You can also feed an audio track as a reference to drive rhythm and timing.
Yes. The Seedance API is live on Atlas Cloud right now with no waitlist, and it works globally without a Chinese phone number or regional verification. You sign up, create a key, and start generating from anywhere your application runs.
ByteDance restricts uploading reference images or videos that contain real human faces, and the model runs face detection to block photorealistic real people. This limits unauthorized likeness use and deepfake risk, so the supported path is to use the platform's virtual characters or non-photoreal references rather than a real person's face.
The Seedance API is pay as you go, billed per second of generated video with no subscription, so you only pay for what you render. Commercial usage rights follow the model license set by ByteDance, which you should review before shipping output in a product.
