About the model
What is Seedance 2 Mini?
Seedance 2 Mini (also known as Seedance 2.0 Mini) is the lighter, cost-efficient member of ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 family of AI video generation models. While the flagship Seedance 2.0 pushes maximum fidelity, Seedance 2 Mini is purpose-built for a different job: scalable, high-frequency, ROI-driven production.
That means generating lots of video, fast, at a price point that makes volume workflows viable — ad creative testing, social content pipelines, product video at catalog scale, and rapid previsualization. You write a prompt or drop in an image, and Seedance 2 Mini returns a polished clip in seconds.
