Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance’s latest KIE video model (`bytedance/seedance-2-5`) with native audio and up to 30-second 1080p output.

GenVid supports text-to-video, first/last-frame image-to-video, and reference-video conditioning through one catalog entry.

Use it for ads, short stories, and audio-forward clips when Veo 3.1 is not required.

What it is

Seedance 2.5 is available on GenVid through the KIE unified jobs API (`POST /api/v1/jobs/createTask`). GenVid handles authentication, credit billing, and delivery—you work in Studio instead of wiring raw API calls.

Official parameter lists and model strings are documented on KIE; we mirror the same model ids in our catalog so quotes match production behavior.
