What it's good for
One studio, all vendors
Switch ByteDance and MiniMax per scene; no vendor lock-in.
Transparent burn
See live credits (per 5s clip) before render; mix flagship heroes with budget B-roll.
Plan-agnostic models
Every model ships on Launch, Rise, Summit, Scale, and Unlimited.
Common use cases
- Faceless YouTube long-form with mixed hero + B-roll model stacks
- Shorts / TikTok / Reels packs cut from the same studio renders
- Budget daily publishing on 1.5 Pro or H3 Turbo
- Premium finance/luxury/health channels reserving 2.5 / H3 Max for openers
- Action Shorts on Seedance 2 Fast; cinematic establishing shots on MiniMax
- Testing ideas cheap, then re-rendering winners on Seedance 2 / 2.5

Model comparison — when to pick which
| If you need... | Pick | 720p credits/5s |
|---|---|---|
| Absolute cheapest volume / default | Seedance 1.5 Pro | 30 |
| Cheapest MiniMax cinematic look | MiniMax H3 Turbo | 28 |
| Affordable v2 Seedance motion | Seedance 2 Mini | 60 |
| Longer cinematic takes / lighting | MiniMax H3 Max | 75 |
| Fast pans / action / Shorts energy | Seedance 2 Fast | 75 |
| Premium workhorse character quality | Seedance 2 | 125 |
| Newest flagship detail & adherence | Seedance 2.5 | 195 |
Rule of thumb: Seedance = character/motion-first; MiniMax = atmosphere/lighting-first. Never spend 2.5 credits on every B-roll cut.
