ExamplesView all

A detective in a rumpled trench coat pushes open a rusted metal door. Camera follows behind him in a steady tracking shot into a dimly lit warehouse. Dust particles float in shafts of light from broken skylights. He stops. Camera slowly pans down to reveal a single red chair in the center of the empty space with a rotary phone on it. The phone starts ringing. Close-up on his face — eyes widen. Noir lighting, desaturated tones, anamorphic lens.

Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo API — Quick start

Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/bytedance/seedance-2.0/text-to-video-turbo with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id. Start polling the result endpoint around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. On completed, read output values from data.outputs. Examples for Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo below.

Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo API — Frequently asked questions

What is the Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo API?

Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo is a ByteDance model for video generation, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Seedance 2.0 (Text-to-Video Turbo) generates cinematic 720p/1080p videos from text prompts —delivering high-resolution output at near-480p speed with native audio-visual synchronization, director-level control, and exceptional motion stability. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID. Poll the result endpoint starting around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. The playground generates production-oriented Python, JavaScript, and cURL examples with timeouts, transient-error handling, and safe GET retries. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/bytedance/bytedance-seedance-2.0-text-to-video-turbo.

How much does Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo cost per run?

Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo starts at $0.70 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo accept?

Key inputs: `prompt`, `aspect_ratio`, `resolution`, `duration`, `reference_images`, `enable_web_search`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/bytedance/bytedance-seedance-2.0-text-to-video-turbo.

How do I get started with the Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo API?

Sign up for a free WaveSpeedAI account to claim starter credits, copy your API key from /accesskey, then call the endpoint shown in the API tab of the playground. The playground also auto-generates a code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for the parameters you've set.

Can I use Seedance 2.0 Text To Video Turbo outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (ByteDance). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
