The new state of the art in AI video.

Seedance 2.0 already sits at #1 on the Artificial Analysis Video Arena leaderboard — ahead of Kling 3.0 and Google Veo 3.1. Seedance 2.5 takes it even further.

It stops being a clip generator and starts being a camera crew.

30-second single takes — one continuous generation, no stitching, no extension passes
Up to 50 reference inputs — images, video clips, audio, scripts, and style guides (up from 9 in Seedance 2.0)
Region-level editing — change one thing in the frame without regenerating the shot
Green-screen and blockout control — guide the exact motion you want instead of gambling on a prompt
Sharper prompt adherence — ByteDance cites roughly 20% better instruction-following than 2.0

It's available in Aidolons now.

Single Takes

30 Seconds. One Shot. No Stitching.

Seedance 2.5 renders up to 30 seconds in a single continuous pass. Your character walks into frame, delivers the line, and reacts — in one take, with the same face, the same light, the same energy.

Any length from 4 to 30 seconds — only pay for what you use
Characters, lighting, and camera hold steady the whole way through
Long enough for an entire short-form beat: setup, turn, punchline

Reference Control

Cast Your Whole Production. Up to 50 References.

Seedance 2.0 took 9 reference files. 2.5 takes up to 50 — character turnarounds, wardrobe shots, location plates, video clips for motion, audio for mood, even written style notes.

Mix images, video, audio, and text in a single generation
Keep the same cast across every episode of a series
Your Aidolons Docs — character sheets, style guides — become literal model inputs

Motion Direction

Act It Out. Seedance Builds the World.

Shoot a performance on a green screen — or block the camera move with a rough 3D layout — and Seedance 2.5 keeps the exact motion while replacing everything around it.

Green-screen plates carry a real performance into any generated set
3D white-model blockouts lock composition and camera path before you spend a credit
Complex choreography stops being a prompt-lottery problem

Region Editing

Fix One Thing Without Re-Rolling the Whole Shot.

Seedance 2.5 edits regions of the frame directly.

Swap wardrobe, props, and background elements in place
Performance and motion are preserved, not re-rolled
Stop paying full price to fix a ten-pixel mistake

Global Output

One Scene. Eleven Languages.

Seedance 2.5 renders clean on-screen text and captions in 11 languages — English, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and more.

Generate the master, then localize the cut for every market your audience lives in — without a subtitle pipeline bolted on afterward.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Yes. Seedance 2.5 is live in the Aidolons playground and workflows — 480p and 720p, clips from 4 to 30 seconds. No waitlist.

Three things nobody else combines: 30-second single-take generation with no stitching, up to 50 multimodal references per shot, and region-level editing that fixes details without re-rolling the clip. Its predecessor, Seedance 2.0, currently ranks #1 on the Artificial Analysis Video Arena leaderboard.

Every plan includes a monthly pool of credits that works across all models — video, image, and audio. Video bills per second of generation, and the app shows you the predicted cost before you hit Generate. You can also purchase additional credits as needed.

That's the whole point of the platform. Store your character bible and style guide as Docs, and Aidolons feeds them to Seedance 2.5 as references on every generation — up to 50 per shot.
