Clip length4–30 seconds

Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance's flagship video model: sharp realism, native soundtrack, and up to 30 references in one shot. On Elyum it does text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, and clip edits, 4–30 seconds.

Use it when you need a product clip, a character who stays on-model, or a scene with dialogue already in the file. Web studio, MCP, or REST — one credit balance.

Why Seedance 2.5 is good

Native audio in the same take

Seedance 2.5 writes sound and dialogue with the picture. You do not stitch a separate soundtrack after the fact unless you want to.

Up to 30 references

Feed stills, clips, and a look. The model holds character, product, and style across the shot instead of drifting after a few seconds.

Sharp realism, not a filter look

ByteDance built Seedance 2.5 for photographic motion: skin, materials, and camera moves that read as filmed, not painted.

Edit an existing clip

It is not only generation. Drop a video in and restage, extend, or rewrite the action without starting from a blank prompt.

Pay only for keeps

Preview is free. A keep at 480p is 70 credits ($0.70) for 5 seconds, 210 credits ($2.10) for 15. Kill refunds the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Is Seedance 2.5 free to try?

Yes. Every render comes back as a free preview. The Free plan includes up to 100 credits (our algorithm may grant them). You only pay when you keep a take; kill refunds the rest in full.

How much does Seedance 2.5 cost on Elyum?

You pay per kept second, not per prompt. 480p is 14 credits per second — 70 credits ($0.70) for 5 seconds, 210 credits ($2.10) for 15. 720p is 170 credits ($1.70) / 510 credits ($5.10). 1080p is 255 credits ($2.55) / 765 credits ($7.65). Killed takes refund in full.

Does Seedance 2.5 generate audio with the video?

Yes. Sound and dialogue are native to the clip. You can still replace the track later; you do not have to generate picture and audio as two jobs.

What can Seedance 2.5 do besides text to video?

On Elyum it does text to video, image to video, reference to video (up to 30 references), and video editing. Clips run 4–30 seconds.

Can I use Seedance 2.5 videos commercially?

Kept takes download at full quality with no watermark. Commercial use is included on Elyum. Preview files are for judging, not for shipping.

Seedance 2.5 vs other AI video models on Elyum?

Seedance 2.5 is the realism-and-reference pick: native audio, long clips, and a large reference budget. Other studio models trade that for stylization, speed, or a different motion grammar. Same credit balance either way.
