Seedance 2.0 Mini: AI Video at the Lowest Credit Cost
Seedance 2.0 Mini turns a prompt or a photo into a short clip with sound, at a fraction of what the bigger Seedance tiers charge. Same family, smaller bill.
What is Seedance 2.0 Mini?
Seedance 2.0 Mini is the lowest-cost tier of ByteDance’s Seedance 2.0 video model. It makes 4–15 second clips at 480p or 720p from a text prompt, a photo, or a stack of reference material, and a 4-second render here starts at 7 credits — about a third of what the flagship charges for the same clip.
The toolkit is still the full Seedance 2.0 set: image-to-video with up to 9 reference images, reference video and audio, first- and last-frame control, native sound, and seven aspect ratios. Next to the bigger tiers, Seedance 2.0 Mini gives up 1080p output and a couple of power-user extras, not the model’s eye for motion.
You can run Seedance 2.0 Mini on this page with nothing to install and no ByteDance account. Sign up, spend the starter credits, then pay per clip — the meter only runs on what you actually render.
