01 · Why Seedance 2.5

Most AI video still maxes out at a few seconds, so longer scenes need stitching that breaks consistency. Seedance 2.5 generates a full 30 seconds in one pass.

02 · What is Seedance 2.5

ByteDance's latest video model.

Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance's newest AI video model, released on 31 July 2026 as part of the Seed family of multimodal models. It builds on Seedance 2.0 with much longer clips, far more reference control, and editing after the clip is generated.

Enhance AI is an independent multi model studio, and Seedance 2.5 is live here now alongside 150+ video models. Run it from a prompt or from an image, then switch to any other model without changing tools or paying for a second subscription.

03 · Key features

What Seedance 2.5 brings.

30 Second Single Clip

Set any length from 4 to 30 seconds and Seedance 2.5 renders it in one pass, where most models stop at a few seconds. Longer takes keep characters, lighting, and motion steady.

Up to 30 References

Steer a shot with up to 30 reference images at once, plus reference video and reference audio. Seedance 2.0 on Enhance AI takes 4, so this is a large jump in control.

Up to 4K

Choose 480p, 720p, 1080p or 4K before you render. A lower resolution costs less, so you can rough a shot out cheaply and only pay for 4K on the take you keep.

Edit After Generation

Seedance 2.5 Video Edit changes a clip you already made, so you can fix part of a scene without paying to render the whole thing again.

Six Aspect Ratios

Render 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 1:1 or 21:9 directly, so a vertical social cut and a cinematic wide come out of the same model without cropping afterwards.

Native Audio

Audio is generated with the video rather than added afterwards, so sound and motion line up without a separate editing pass.

04 · Availability

Where you can use Seedance 2.5.

ByteDance released Seedance 2.5 on 31 July 2026. It is live in the Enhance AI Video Studio now, for text to video and for image to video, with no waitlist and no separate ByteDance account to set up.

Four tiers are running here. The standard model renders up to 4K, Turbo trades some resolution for speed, Extend continues a clip you have already made, and Video Edit changes one that is already finished.

Good things to know.

Everything you want to know about Seedance 2.5 and what you can use on Enhance AI today. Straight, no fluff.

Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance's newest AI video model, released on 31 July 2026 as part of the Seed family of multimodal models. It generates up to 30 seconds in a single pass, renders from 480p to 4K, and takes up to 30 reference images plus reference video and audio to steer the shot. It runs on Enhance AI now.

Yes. Seedance 2.5 is live in the Video Studio for text to video and image to video. Alongside the standard model you also get Seedance 2.5 Turbo for faster renders, Seedance 2.5 Extend for continuing a clip, and Seedance 2.5 Video Edit for changing a clip after it is made.

Open the Video Studio, pick Seedance 2.5, then either write a prompt or upload an image to animate. Choose your resolution, clip length and aspect ratio, and generate. You get free credits when you sign up, with no card, and full commercial rights on everything you make.

On Enhance AI, Seedance 2.0 renders up to 15 seconds at 1080p and takes 4 reference images. Seedance 2.5 goes to 30 seconds in one pass, renders up to 4K, and takes 30 reference images along with reference video and audio. It also adds editing after generation and native audio.

Anywhere from 4 to 30 seconds, set before you generate. Generating a longer clip in one pass helps keep characters, lighting, and motion consistent without stitching shorter clips together. Longer clips cost more, because video is billed by length rather than by generation.

Seedance 2.5 renders at 480p, 720p, 1080p or 4K, and you pick the resolution before you generate. It supports 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 1:1 and 21:9, so you can render for widescreen, vertical social or a cinematic crop without cropping afterwards.
