#What it costs
These are credits per clip, as of 2026-10-10. The Studio shows the live quote for your settings before you generate, and the total it charges is that quote multiplied by Count.
| Length | Credits per clip |
|---|---|
| 5 s | 1,451 |
Sound costs no extra credits on this model, so the toggle does not change the price.
#Use it in Studio
Step 1: Open Create Video
In Studio, open Create Video. Sign in when the Studio asks, because every generation needs an account.
Step 2: Choose Seedance 2.0
Open the model picker, which groups models by maker, and choose Seedance 2.0.
Step 3: Write your prompt
Describe the clip. To start from a picture, attach one start image (JPEG, PNG or WEBP, up to 20 MB).
Step 4: Set the output
Set aspect ratio, sound and Count from 1 to 4.
Step 5: Check the price and generate
The Studio shows the credit price for your settings. Videos run in the background: the card updates in place when the clip is ready, and the clip is saved to your Library.
#Limits
- You need to be signed in to generate. Seedance 2.0 is available on every plan, including Free; credits are the limit.

- A video that has not finished within 30 minutes is marked failed and refunded. A failed generation is refunded, and the Studio does not run a different model in its place.
