Where this model earns its cost — and where it doesn't.
Developed by ByteDance, this model generates video and native audio from text or image prompts. It operates as the fast tier of the Seedance 2 family, delivering quicker generation times at a lower cost than the Pro variant.
On Kyma, the endpoint is OpenAI-compatible and routes through automatic failover to maintain a 100% success rate across requests. You can enable prompt caching to bill repeated prefixes at 10% of the standard input rate, and every response returns exact billing in usage.cost alongside the X-Kyma-Model header. New accounts receive a $0.50 credit to start testing immediately.
It does not support vision input analysis, structured outputs, or reasoning chains. The model is billed per second of generated output and is optimized for shorter clips rather than long-form video.

UI Motion Prototyping
