Seedance 2.0 Mini

The lowest-cost Seedance 2.0 tier, for drafts, storyboards and high-volume variations at 480p or 720p, with native audio.

Meet Seedance 2.0 Mini

Seedance 2.0 Mini is the cheapest way to run Seedance 2.0. It takes the same inputs as the other tiers (text, a start and end frame, or up to four reference images) and still generates sound with the picture.

It renders at 480p or 720p for about a third less per second than Seedance 2.0 Fast. Use it to test ideas, block out a storyboard, or make many variations of one concept, then move the winners to Fast or full Seedance 2.0.

Common questions

What is Seedance 2.0 Mini best used for?

Seedance 2.0 Mini is particularly useful for storyboards for a longer ad, testing hooks and concepts in bulk, variations of one idea across formats. The right choice still depends on your input assets, delivery format, turnaround and credit budget.

What inputs does Seedance 2.0 Mini support in Advibly?

Seedance 2.0 Mini works from text, start frame, end frame and up to 4 reference images. Advibly only shows the controls a model actually supports once it is selected, so you are never offered a combination it cannot render.

How many credits does Seedance 2.0 Mini use?

The current estimate is 0.06 to 0.14 credits / second ($0.06 to $0.14 / second, at $1 per credit). The exact amount follows the options you pick, and Advibly shows it on the generate button before anything is charged.
