Seedance 2.5 is an AI video generator that produces cinematic clips up to 30 seconds in a single pass. It outputs native 4K resolution (3840×2160) video with scene transitions, native audio (lip-synced dialogue, sound effects), and supports up to 50 multimodal references per job. The product is developed and hosted by Seedances, an independent platform that integrates models like Seedance, Seedream, and Nano Banana.
What is Seedance 2.5?
Seedance 2.5 is an AI video generation model accessible via the Seedances web platform that converts text prompts, images, or reference media into full-length video clips. It takes text prompts (up to 2500 characters) or uploaded images/audio/video as inputs and outputs video in resolutions up to 4K, with optional native audio. The generation happens entirely in the browser through the AI Video Studio at seedances.ai.
