About Seedance 2.0 Fast
Seedance 2.0 Fast is a quicker version of ByteDance's Seedance 2.0. It takes the same inputs: a text prompt, a start frame with an optional end frame, or up to 9 reference images cited in the prompt.
Clips are 5, 8 or 10 seconds long at 480p or 720p, in 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1. Sound is generated with the picture and is part of the price.
It sits between Seedance 2.0 Mini and the full model on price. Use it when you want Seedance 2.0's look back sooner, and Mini when the price per clip matters most.

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"prompt": "a lighthouse at dusk, waves breaking, slow aerial orbit",
"model": "seedance-2-fast",
"duration": 5,
"aspect": "16:9",

}'
Price any other settings first with POST /quote, which is free. Videos take a few minutes, so the script waits on the job until it is done. Every field is described in the videos docs.
Seedance 2.0 Fast from an AI agent (MCP)
Claude Code, Cursor and other MCP clients run the same request as the generate_video tool. Add the server once:
claude mcp add --transport http kinoseed https://kinoseed.app/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer ks_live_YOUR_KEY"Then the agent sends this call, or you ask for the result in plain words and it builds the call itself:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "tools/call",
"params": {
"name": "generate_video",
"arguments": {
"prompt": "a lighthouse at dusk, waves breaking, slow aerial orbit",
"model": "seedance-2-fast",
"duration": 5,
"aspect": "16:9",
"resolution": "480p"
}
}
}
Setup for every client is on the MCP server page.

Frequently asked questions
What does Seedance 2.0 Fast cost?
Generating starts with a plan. A 5-second clip at 480p with Seedance 2.0 Fast costs 110 credits, which the $10 Basic plan (500 credits a month) covers: 4 runs. Results never carry a watermark.
How long can Seedance 2.0 Fast videos be?
Seedance 2.0 Fast clips are 5, 8 or 10 seconds long. Pick the length in the studio before you generate. Longer clips cost more, and the exact price is on the Generate button before you spend anything.
Can Seedance 2.0 Fast turn an image into a video?
Yes. Seedance 2.0 Fast works from a text prompt alone or from a start image you upload. You can also add an end frame so the clip finishes on a specific image. A separate reference mode takes up to 9 images of products, characters or places to combine in one scene.
Does Seedance 2.0 Fast generate sound?
Yes. Seedance 2.0 Fast generates sound with every clip, and it is included in the price, so muting it does not make a clip cheaper.
Is there a Seedance 2.0 Fast API?
Yes. Send POST /api/v1/videos with "model": "seedance-2-fast" and an API key from your account page. The request on this page costs 110 credits (about $2.20), and POST /api/v1/quote prices any other settings before you spend anything. The same run is the generate_video tool on the Kinoseed MCP server.
