Type a prompt or drop in a still, pick 480p, and press Generate. Seedance Mini runs text to video and image to video in the same composer, and the credit cost shows before you submit.
Frames mode needs both a start and an end still; Video mode takes one reference image. Upload from your device or pick from your saved images.
You set the frames, the reference image, the ratio and the sound. Seedance Mini hands you the same controls the bigger presets get, and the clip below came straight out of that composer.
You pay 60 credits for a 5-second 480p render, and native audio comes out with the picture. Ten looks for what one full-price render costs you.

You still pin a first and last frame, add one reference image, and choose from six aspect ratios. Your draft matches the shot you plan to ship. Turn native audio on or off, and set any length from 5 to 15 seconds before you generate.
Drop your still into the Frames slots or attach it as a reference image, then write the motion. Your flat shot becomes a clip of up to 15 seconds.

Run a draft, change one line, and send the next — every 5-second draft bills the same 60 credits. You find the winning prompt in an afternoon, not a week.

Seedance 2.0 Mini is the lightweight member of ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 video family. It is built for volume: lower cost per clip, aimed at drafting and iteration rather than final delivery. Here you run it in the browser as a preset in the composer, with text to video and image to video in the same place.
Yes, in two ways. Frames mode takes a start still and an end still, and fills the motion between them. Video mode takes one reference image beside your prompt and holds your subject through the shot. Either way you write a short motion prompt and generate.
Sign-up is free and needs no card, and it includes 120 one-time starter credits. That covers two 5-second 480p renders. After that, renders draw on a credit pack or on a subscription's monthly credits.
A 5-second 480p render costs 60 credits. Longer clips scale per second, so a 10-second clip costs exactly double. The estimate shows beside Generate before you submit, and you are charged the figure you saw.
Use Mini while the idea is still moving. It is the cheapest way to test prompts, angles and lengths. Move to the Seedance 2.0 Standard preset or Seedance 2.5 for the version you actually deliver, since those presets carry the higher-resolution ladders.
480p, and only 480p. That is deliberate: the Mini preset exists to make cheap drafts, so it ships one resolution and one price instead of a ladder. When a draft earns a bigger render, you switch presets and rerun it.
Your uploads stay yours, and every clip you render is yours to publish and reuse. Nothing is stamped on the output at any tier, including renders paid for with starter credits. Commercial use applies per plan terms.
It is the cheapest render on this site. At 60 credits for 5 seconds, a Mini draft costs less than every other preset here, which is why it is the tier people use for prompt testing. You can check it yourself — the cost preview updates as you change a setting.
Any length from 5 to 15 seconds, in one-second steps. Native audio is generated with the picture and sits behind a switch that defaults on. Turn it off when you plan to lay your own track.
No. Most search results for this model are developer API listings, but here you sign in and press Generate. There is no key to provision, no billing account to wire up, and no code.
Every page here runs the real models in your browser — jump to the one that matches the clip you have in mind.
Your starter credits cover two 5-second drafts, and nothing is charged until they run out. Write a prompt, keep 480p, and watch your first clip come back with sound.
