FAQ
How does the Seedance cost calculator work?
Pick model (Seedance 2.0 or 2.0 Fast), resolution, output duration, and workflow (Image-to-Video, Text-to-Video, or Video-to-Video). The calculator multiplies billable seconds by the live credit rate card used on seedance2-video.com, then converts to USD at the Yearly Starter anchor of $0.0149 per credit.
Are calculator USD prices the same as checkout?
USD estimates use the Yearly Starter plan anchor ($14.9/month for 1,000 credits). One-time packs (Mini Pack $15 / 300 credits) have a different effective per-credit cost. Always verify the live amount on /pricing before purchase.
What is the cheapest Seedance clip I can generate?
As of August 2026, the cheapest common preset is Seedance 2.0 Fast at 480p Image-to-Video: 8 credits per second. A 5-second clip costs 40 credits (~$0.60 at the Yearly Starter anchor).
How much is a 10-second 1080p Seedance video?
On Seedance 2.0 Text-to-Video at 1080p, the rate is 87 credits/second, so 10 seconds = 870 credits (~$12.96 at the Yearly Starter anchor). Image-to-Video at the same settings is 53 credits/second = 530 credits (~$7.90).
Does Video-to-Video charge for the input clip?
Yes. Video-to-Video bills output seconds plus input video seconds at the with-video-input rate. Example: 5s output + 3s input at 720p Seedance 2.0 = 8 × 21 = 168 credits.
Is Seedance 2.5 included in this calculator?
Not yet. As of August 15, 2026, BytePlus ModelArk still marks the Seedance 2.5 endpoint as coming soon. This calculator covers Seedance 2.0 and Seedance 2.0 Fast — the models currently served on seedance2-video.com. See /blog/seedance-2-5-tested-2026 for 2.5 status.
How do Mini Pack credits map to videos?
Mini Pack is $15 for 300 credits with 12-month validity. Divide 300 by the calculator credits-per-video result. Example: 105 credits per 720p / 5s i2v clip → about 2 clips per Mini Pack; leftover credits stay valid for 12 months.
