What Our Users Say

We rebuilt our entire DTC ad pipeline around Seedance 2.5's 30-second clips. Our top-of-funnel video ads now run 3x longer without a re-shoot, and cost-per-acquisition dropped 27% in the first month.

M
Marcus EllisonHead of Growth, Skincare eCommerce Brand

The 50-reference feature is the reason we switched. Our founder, packaging, and product now stay perfectly on-model across a 12-shot spot. We cut agency video spend by roughly $18,000 per quarter.

P
Priya NairBrand Director, Consumer Electronics Startup

Controllable editing means I can fix one camera move instead of re-rolling the whole clip. My real estate listing videos went from a two-day turnaround to under four hours, and listings with them sell 19% faster.

D
Diego FuentesMarketing Lead, Regional Real Estate Group

Being able to A/B Seedance 2.5 against Veo3 in the same tab is a superpower. We ship 40+ localized ad variants a week now, up from about 10, without adding editors to the team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance's latest AI video generation model, officially announced on July 5, 2026. It introduces 30-second native long video, support for up to 50 multimodal references, and controllable editing. You can try Seedance 2.5 directly on VO3 without a separate ByteDance account or waitlist.

The three headline upgrades in Seedance 2.5 are native 30-second clips (versus the shorter durations of previous versions), up to 50 multimodal reference inputs for consistent characters and products, and a controllable editing layer that lets you adjust camera moves, timing, and subjects instead of regenerating from scratch.

On VO3, Seedance 2.5 uses a transparent credit system — you see the exact credit cost per clip before you generate, based on length and resolution. You can start on a free trial, buy credit packs, or move to a Basic, Pro, or Studio subscription as your volume grows. There's no enterprise-only quote required to try it.

Sign in to VO3, open the Create studio, and pick Seedance 2.5 from the model list. New accounts include trial credits so you can generate your first Seedance 2.5 video free — no credit card needed to get started.

Seedance 2.5 supports up to 30 seconds of native long video in a single generation. Because it's generated natively rather than stitched from short segments, motion, lighting, and characters stay consistent across the full clip.

You can supply up to 50 reference images — characters, products, logos, or style boards — and Seedance 2.5 blends them into one coherent scene. This keeps your brand assets and cast on-model across every shot, which is ideal for ads, product demos, and multi-scene stories.

Each model has strengths: Seedance 2.5 leads on long-form duration and heavy multimodal referencing, while Veo3 and Sora 2 shine in other areas like audio and physics. On VO3 you can run the same prompt through Seedance 2.5, Veo3, Sora 2, and Kling side by side and choose the best result for each scene.

No. VO3 provides managed access to Seedance 2.5, so you can generate videos through one login without registering separately with ByteDance or joining a waitlist. Your credits, history, and other models all live in the same dashboard.
