Seedance AI Pricing

Credits are the currency for generating AI videos. Each video generation deducts credits based on the mode and features used: Fast mode costs 60 credits, Quality mode costs 250 credits. Special features like Motion Control (30-180 credits) and Lip Sync (40-120 credits) vary by duration. Credits reset monthly on your billing date and do not roll over — so you get a fresh allocation every month to fuel your creativity.

It depends on your plan and the modes you use. Here's a quick guide: • Basic (800 credits): ~13 Fast mode videos per month • Pro (2,000 credits): ~33 Fast mode or ~8 Quality mode videos • Business (3,500 credits): ~58 Fast mode or ~14 Quality mode videos Most creators on Pro find the 2,000 credit allocation hits the sweet spot between volume and quality.

You can purchase a Credit Pack to top up instantly — Pro Pack ($49.9 for 1,200 credits) or Business Pack ($89.9 for 2,000 credits). Credit Packs are valid for 30 days and stack with your subscription credits. However, subscriptions offer up to 4x better value per credit, so if you consistently run out, upgrading your plan is the smarter choice.

No, monthly credits reset each billing cycle and don't accumulate. This keeps pricing fair for everyone. If you have credits remaining near renewal, it's a great time to experiment with Quality mode, 4K output, or Motion Control features you haven't tried yet.

Fast mode (veo3_fast) generates videos quickly at standard quality — ideal for drafts, social media content, and rapid iteration. Quality mode (veo3) produces cinema-grade videos with superior detail, consistency, and visual fidelity — perfect for professional work and final deliverables. Quality mode costs 250 credits vs 60 for Fast, but the difference in output is dramatic. Quality mode is available on Pro and Business plans.

Free users can preview generated videos but cannot download them. All paid plans (Basic, Pro, and Business) include full video download capability in HD quality. If you're on the free plan and want to save your creations, upgrading to any paid plan unlocks downloads immediately.

Motion Control lets you transfer real human movements from a reference video to any character image — no mocap equipment needed. Credit costs vary by video duration and resolution: • Up to 5 seconds: 30 credits (720p) / 45 credits (1080p) • 6-10 seconds: 60 credits (720p) / 90 credits (1080p) • 11-30 seconds: 180 credits (720p) / 270 credits (1080p) Motion Control 720p is available on Basic+, while 1080p requires Pro or above.

Lip Sync AI synchronizes character mouth movements with audio input, creating realistic talking-head videos. Credit costs scale by audio duration: • Up to 5 seconds: 40 credits (720p) / 80 credits (1080p) • 6-10 seconds: 80 credits (720p) / 160 credits (1080p) • 11-15 seconds: 120 credits (720p) / 240 credits (1080p) Lip Sync 720p requires a Pro plan. Lip Sync 1080p is exclusive to Business.

Here's a quick decision framework: • Basic ($99.9/year): You're exploring AI video, need Fast mode + downloads, and want the most affordable entry point. • Pro ($20.8/mo annual or $29.9/mo monthly): You create content regularly and need Quality mode, 4K, Lip Sync, and private generation. This is our most popular plan for a reason — it unlocks the full creative toolkit. • Business ($35.0/mo annual or $49.9/mo monthly): You need commercial licensing, Lip Sync 1080p, VIP priority, and dedicated support for professional/commercial work. When in doubt, start with Pro — it covers 90% of creator needs.

The Basic annual plan is designed as the most accessible entry point at just $8.33/month ($99.9/year). By offering it exclusively as an annual plan, we can keep the price as low as possible while providing full access to core features including Fast mode, Motion Control 720p, 1080p output, video downloads, and watermark removal. For monthly billing flexibility, our Pro plan starts at $29.9/month with significantly more credits and premium features.

Absolutely. You can change your plan at any time from your account settings. When upgrading, you get immediate access to new features and additional credits. When downgrading, the change takes effect at your next billing cycle — you keep full access to your current plan until then. No penalties, no hassle.

Credit Packs are one-time purchases that give you extra credits and feature access for 30 days — no subscription required. We offer a Pro Pack ($49.9 for 1,200 credits with Pro features) and a Business Pack ($89.9 for 2,000 credits with Business features). They're perfect for one-off projects or trying premium features before committing. That said, subscriptions provide up to 4x more credits per dollar, so they're the better value for ongoing use.
