Seedance 2.0 is ByteDance's second-generation video model, released in February 2026 on a unified architecture that generates footage and synchronized audio together. Where earlier versions took text or a single image, this generation accepts text, images, audio, and video material as input, including subject-reference images that lock a character or product across shots. Clips range from 4 to 15 seconds at resolutions from 480p up to 4K, across widescreen, vertical, and square aspect ratios. The reference system plus native sound makes it a strong fit for brand-consistent campaigns, character-driven series, and any workflow where the same subject must appear across many generated scenes.
Usage-based pricing, billed by the second and tiered by variant, not by token.
| Variant | Price |
|---|---|
| 1080p | $0.37 / sec |
| 480p | $0.07 / sec |
| 4k | $0.78 / sec |
| 720p | $0.15 / sec |
Seedance 2.0 runs on 3 different routes through the Opper gateway. Compare residency, ZDR, and training posture at a glance — full data-handling detail per route below.
One of Seedance 2.0's 3 routes is on the monitoring board, so the figure below is that provider's availability rather than the model's.
Name a second model in the same request and the gateway tries it on retriable errors, so a busy hour never has to reach your users. Set up a fallback chain.
Measured over the last 30 days from each provider's official status feed via StatusGator. Refreshed hourly. 2 further routes are not on the board yet. See uptime for every provider Opper monitors.
Each route hosting Seedance 2.0 has its own privacy posture, residency, and GDPR terms. Postures are maintained by Opper with a last-verification timestamp.

Call Seedance 2.0 through the Opper gateway with one API key. Let your coding agent set it up, or call it directly — Opper is drop-in compatible with the OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google AI SDKs.
Copy this and paste it into a coding agent like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex and it'll wire up Opper for you.
import OpenAI from "openai";const client = new OpenAI({apiKey: process.env.OPPER_API_KEY,baseURL: "https://api.opper.ai/v3/compat",});const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({model: "bytedance:ap/seedance-2.0",messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],});console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);
