Volume pricing for the Seedance API
The more you top up, the less Seedance video costs. Your tier comes from the token top-ups you paid for in the last 30 days. It lowers the per-second price of Seedance video and raises your video request limit, automatically, with no contract and no sales call. If your top-ups drop, the tier moves back down.
| Tier | Paid top-ups, last 30 days | Seedance video price | Video requests / minute | Reached in one top-up |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Any | List price | 20 | – |
| Scale | $1,000+ | up to 5% off | 60 | Volume pack ($1,250) |
| Growth | $2,500+ | up to 7.5% off | 120 | Volume+ pack ($2,500) |
| Enterprise | $5,000+ | up to 10% off | 300 | Enterprise pack ($5,000) |
Every job's quote shows your price before it runs; a few low-priced settings get a smaller discount. Smaller top-ups add up toward a tier too. Price comparisons on this site use list prices unless a price is marked as at volume. Need more volume? Custom pricing for committed monthly spend: email harry@kreatorflow.ai.

GET /v1/models returns the same limits for every model, so your code can read them instead of hard-coding them. Every field, the job object, webhooks and error codes are in the Seedance API reference.
How to write Seedance 2.0 Mini prompts
- Mini works best on simple, single-action shots: a pet, an object, one person moving.
- Render many short variants and keep the best, then re-render the winner on Seedance 2.0 if it needs more detail.
- Keep the camera simple (static or one slow move) for the cleanest results at this price.
- Batch through the API with an Idempotency-Key per variant so a resent request never doubles a charge.

What to use the Seedance 2.0 Mini API for
- High-volume pipelines and previews
- Drafts and storyboards
- A/B variants at the lowest price per clip
Seedance 2.0 Mini API limitations
- Clips run from 4 to 10 seconds per request; longer videos are several clips joined in your own pipeline.
- The highest resolution is 1080p. For 4K, use Seedance 2.0 or Seedance 2.5.
- References of real people, celebrities or public figures are declined, and a declined job is not charged.
- The output link needs your API key and expires, so copy each finished file to your own storage.
- Generation takes time: poll every 10 to 15 seconds or use a webhook rather than holding a request open.

How long can a Seedance 2.0 Mini clip be?
From 4 to 10 seconds per request, in 720p, 1080p.
How do I get a Seedance 2.0 Mini API key?
Sign in to the KreatorFlow API console, create a key on the API keys tab and top up tokens from $20. The same key works for every Seedance and Seedream model, so switching models is one field in the request.
Is there a free Seedance 2.0 Mini API?
No. The API is prepaid, so you pay only for the clips you make, from $20 with no subscription. Jobs that fail are not charged: the tokens reserved for them go back to your balance. The price calculator above shows the exact cost before you start.
Which resolutions and aspect ratios does Seedance 2.0 Mini support?
720p, 1080p, in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, or adaptive to match an input image or clip.
Can I send reference images, video or audio to Seedance 2.0 Mini?
Yes: up to 9 images, 3 video clips and 3 audio clips per job, as public HTTPS URLs or upload ids from POST /v1/uploads. References must be media you own or have permission to use; a photo of a real person is declined, so register an owned character instead.
Do I have to poll, or are there webhooks?
Both work. Pass webhook_url and KreatorFlow posts a signed event when the job completes, fails, is canceled or blocked. Or poll GET /v1/jobs/{id} every 10 to 15 seconds.
What are the rate limits?
POST /v1/videos accepts 20 requests a minute per developer account and GET /v1/jobs/{id} 120 a minute. A 429 response carries a Retry-After header with the seconds to wait.
Do you train on my prompts or videos?
No. KreatorFlow does not use your private prompts or generated outputs to train AI models without your explicit opt-in.
Why use KreatorFlow instead of going to BytePlus directly?
KreatorFlow is an official partner of BytePlus, a ByteDance company, and it adds one key for every Seedance and Seedream model, prepaid card top-ups from $20, per-second prices, uploads for references, signed webhooks and idempotent requests, with no enterprise sign-up.
Is there volume pricing for the Seedance API?
Yes. Once your paid top-ups in the last 30 days reach $1,000, Seedance video costs up to 5% less per second, rising to up to 10% off at $5,000 (Enterprise), and your video request limit goes up with each tier. It applies automatically, with no contract, and each job's quote shows your price before it runs. For more volume than that, email harry@kreatorflow.ai.
