## What Seedance is good at

Seedance is the video generation model family from ByteDance, the company behind TikTok. AutoFeed offers three versions: Seedance 2.0, the newest, which also generates sound; Seedance 1 Pro; and Seedance 1 Lite, the cheapest and quickest.

All three accept either a text prompt or a starting image, render 5 or 10 second clips, and output 720p or 1080p. They also support all three formats: 9:16 for TikTok and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube and 1:1 for feeds.

That range makes Seedance a sensible default when you do not yet know which model suits an idea: draft on 1 Lite at 720p, then render the version you will post on 1 Pro or 2.0.

Use it for:

- Vertical clips for TikTok and YouTube Shorts straight from a prompt
- Clips with generated sound on Seedance 2.0
- Cheap 720p drafts on 1 Lite before a final render

## How to make and post a Seedance video

1. **Choose text to video or image to video**: Open the AI video editor and pick the input. Seedance on AutoFeed takes text or image input.
2. **Pick a Seedance variant**: Available now: Seedance 2.0, Seedance 1 Pro, Seedance 1 Lite. Each model card shows its starting price in credits.
3. **Write the prompt and set the clip**: Describe the shot, then choose the length (5 or 10 seconds), the resolution and the format (9:16, 16:9, 1:1). The credit cost updates as you change them.
4. **Generate**: The credits are deducted when generation starts and returned automatically if the model fails. The finished clip appears under your AI videos.
5. **Post, schedule or download**: Post the clip to a connected TikTok or YouTube account now, schedule it for a date and time, or download the MP4.

## Prompt tips for Seedance

- Lead with the subject and action, then the setting, then the camera ("a fox runs through snow at dusk, low tracking shot").
- Pick the format before you write: a vertical frame needs a subject that fills the height.
- If a 10 second clip drifts off topic, split the idea into two 5 second clips instead.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is the difference between the Seedance versions?

All three take text or an image and output 5 or 10 second clips at 720p or 1080p in any aspect ratio. Seedance 2.0 is the newest and generates sound with the video; 1 Pro is the previous high-quality tier; 1 Lite costs the fewest credits. The table on this page lists the exact credits for every combination.

### Who makes Seedance?

Seedance is developed by ByteDance. AutoFeed runs it through Replicate, so no ByteDance or third-party account is needed.

### How many credits does a Seedance clip cost on AutoFeed?

From 720 credits (a 5 second Seedance 1 Lite clip at 720p) to 18,000 credits (a 10 second Seedance 2.0 clip at 1080p). The table on this page lists every combination of variant, resolution and length.

### How many Seedance clips do I get on each plan?

Hobby ($19/month, 15,000 credits): 0 to 20 clips; Pro ($59/month, 60,000 credits): 3 to 83 clips; Ultimate ($249/month, 180,000 credits): 10 to 250 clips. Credits are shared across everything you make on AutoFeed, so clips on other models or faceless videos draw on the same balance.

### Can I try Seedance for free?

Yes, once. A new AutoFeed account gets 1,000 free credits with no card, enough for a 5 second Seedance 1 Lite clip at 720p, which costs 720 credits. More clips need a plan.

### Does Seedance on AutoFeed add a watermark?

No. AutoFeed adds no watermark or logo. Each clip is delivered as an MP4 at 1080x1920 for 9:16, 1920x1080 for 16:9 or 1280x1280 for 1:1, ready to download or post.

### Is Seedance text to video or image to video?

Both. Seedance on AutoFeed accepts a text prompt on its own, or a starting image plus a prompt describing the motion.

### Can AutoFeed post Seedance videos to TikTok and YouTube?

Yes, one clip at a time. When a clip is ready you can post it to a connected TikTok or YouTube account straight away, or pick a date and time to schedule it. AI video clips are not a recurring series: the series that write, render and post new videos on their own schedule are the faceless formats (AI slideshows, Reddit stories, Would You Rather, Pick One and Fake Text).
