Source basis and reading boundary
These guides are written as third-party reference summaries, not official product documentation or support content.
Sources used
Re-checked against the current ByteDance Seedance 2.0 project page, the Seed Models page, Dreamina help/resources, and BytePlus / ModelArk docs on March 24, 2026.
Boundary
Use these pages to understand public claims, common workflows, and terminology. Do not read them as official support, authorization, or product-owner statements.
Timeliness
Access routes, input limits, queue behavior, pricing, and API availability can change by surface. Treat Dreamina, BytePlus / ModelArk, and partner routes as separate products until current docs confirm otherwise.
Source basis
This page summarizes publicly available materials. Specs, pricing, and access may change, so verify with primary sources before making decisions.

Model and inputs
Public technical descriptions refer to a unified multimodal audio-video joint generation architecture. Inputs: text plus up to 9 images, 3 video clips, and 3 audio tracks (subject to platform limits). Text drives scene, action, and style; images/videos/audio provide reference for composition, motion, camera, and sound. The @ tag system in prompts lets you assign roles to each asset.
Outputs
Video: typically 4–15 seconds selectable; resolution up to 2K (2048×1080); aspect ratios often include 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9 and adaptive. Audio: native stereo, generated jointly with video (not post-dubbed); lip-sync supported for multiple languages in public reports. Video extension and in-place editing are supported in many workflows.
Audio-video joint generation
Third-party technical write-ups describe a dual-branch diffusion transformer that processes visual and audio streams in a single inference, enabling lip-sync, sound effects, and music to be aligned with the picture from the start. Consistency across shots is achieved by reusing the same reference image(s) and referring to them in the prompt.
Frequently asked questions
Is there an API?
Yes. BytePlus/Volcano Engine and third-party providers (e.g. fal.ai, Seedance2API-style docs) offer API access. Workflow is often async: submit job, poll status, download result. Check the official Seedance project page and your provider’s developer docs for current API offerings and pricing.
What resolution does Seedance 2.0 support?
According to public reports, native output goes up to 2K (2048×1080), with common aspect ratios including 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, and others. See our comparison guide for how this compares to other tools.
