Seedance in a visual AI workflow

Run ByteDance's Seedance in a visual AI workflow — fast, high-motion text- and image-to-video, BYOK at provider prices.

Seedance in the NodeTool canvas

Fresh Seedance examples are on the way. Meanwhile, here's the NodeTool canvas where you'll run it.

Seedance is ByteDance's video model, built for lively motion and quick turnaround. Its lite and pro tiers trade speed against fidelity, and it handles both text-to-video and image-to-video, which makes it a practical default for iterating on a shot before committing to a slower model.

As a NodeTool node, Seedance slots into the same graph as your prompt writer, reference images, and post-processing. Because every model here shares one interface, you can A/B Seedance against Veo or Kling on the same prompt without rebuilding the pipeline.

Seedance is BYOK. The table below — generated from the node manifests — shows which providers serve it and under which ids.

Frequently asked

What is Seedance best at?
High-motion clips generated quickly. The lite tier is fast enough for rapid iteration; the pro tier raises fidelity for a final render.
Does Seedance support image-to-video?
Yes. Both text-to-video and image-to-video endpoints are available as nodes in NodeTool.
How do I compare Seedance to other video models?
Use NodeTool's model-vs-model pages, which run the same prompt through Seedance and a rival and show the two outputs side by side.
