Seedance 2.5

Seedance 2.5 is an AI video generator that produces continuous 30-second native 4K shots with integrated sound from a single text prompt or image, removing the need for timeline stitching.

What is Seedance 2.5?

Seedance 2.5 is an AI video generation model by ByteDance that takes a text prompt, an image, or up to 50 reference inputs (images, video, audio, 3D models, style boards) and outputs a single, continuous 30-second video at native 4K resolution with 10-bit color and synchronized audio. It runs as a web-based service on seedance25ai.im and requires no video editing skills.

Key Features

• 30-second continuous shots — Generates a single unbroken clip up to 30 seconds long from one prompt, with no manual stitching or timeline editing.
• Native 4K output — Renders at native 4K resolution with 10-bit color depth for cinematic quality.
• Up to 50 reference inputs — Accepts images, videos, audio, 3D models, and style boards to maintain consistent subject appearance, lighting, and style across the shot.
• Joint audio-video generation — Produces sound alongside the video, downloaded as MP4 files ready for publishing.
• Text-to-video and image-to-video — Start from a written description or a still image; both modes create motion video.
• Prompt adherence improvement — ByteDance reports approximately 20% better prompt adherence compared to Seedance 2.0, reducing the need for re-renders.
