What is ByteDance Seed?

Seedance 2.5 is a video creation model from ByteDance Seed, built for storytelling in 30-second videos. It combines video generation with reference controls and editing capabilities, giving creators a way to work on short visual narratives with AI. Its focus is video creation, rather than the image generation, audio creation, or conversational tasks handled by other models in the Seed family.

For users, the central capabilities are creating a short video, controlling the result through references, and editing the video. This makes it relevant to video creators working on brief stories and other short-form visual projects. Seedance 2.5 is available to try online through ByteDance Seed, which also links to a technical introduction for users who want to explore the model further.
