Overview

What is Seedance 2.5

Seedance 2.5 is the newest release in the Seedance family of video generators and the successor to Seedance 2.0. It is a unified multimodal model that accepts text, image, audio, and video as input, and produces native video with synchronized audio in a single generation pass.

Compared with Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.5 brings longer single-shot duration, larger reference capacity, higher resolution, and tighter prompt control.

Features

Features of Seedance 2.5

30-Second Native Clips

Seedance 2.5 generates up to 30 seconds of video in a single run, doubling the 15-second limit of Seedance 2.0. Longer native clips reduce the need to stitch multiple short segments, producing more coherent motion and narrative flow.

Up to 50 Multimodal References

A single generation can include up to 50 reference assets, any mix of images, videos, and audio. This is the largest reference capacity in its class. Provide a cast of characters, products, or style references and let the model orchestrate them into a single scene.

Native 4K Resolution

Generations can be produced at up to 3840 × 2160 natively, without an external upscaling step. Output is suitable for direct use in advertising, e-commerce, and short-form content pipelines.

Improved Prompt Adherence

Subjects, actions, layout, and stylistic instructions are followed approximately 20% more reliably than in Seedance 2.0. Better adherence reduces the number of regenerations needed to land on a usable result.

Unified Multimodal Input

Combine text prompts with image, video, and audio references in a single generation. Output videos include a native audio track synchronized with the visuals.
