How to choose a Seedance API host
- 1
Fix the setting
Pick the model and resolution you will ship. Prices differ more between settings than between hosts.
- 2
Compare per clip
Multiply the per-second price by your clip length. The table does it for 5 seconds.
- 3
Check the billing rules
Minimum spend, what a failed job costs, and how prices are rounded matter as much as the list price.
- 4
Test with a small balance
On KreatorFlow the smallest top-up is $20.
Seedance API price for a 5-second clip
Lowest first in the ranking column, which also includes a lower price from outside the three where we found one. fal prices include audio; Replicate prices are without video input. All at 1280x720 or 1920x1080. KreatorFlow is from its rate card, rounded up to whole tokens as billed. BytePlus direct is not priced here: it bills per token on its own terms.

Is Seedance on fal, Replicate and BytePlus?
Yes. On 30 October 2026, fal listed Seedance 2.0 and Seedance 2.5 text-to-video with per-second prices, Replicate listed Seedance 2.0, 2.0 Fast and 2.5, and BytePlus listed all four Seedance models on its own pricing page. Older articles that say fal or Replicate do not host Seedance 2.0 are out of date.
Which of the three costs least?
Among fal, Replicate and KreatorFlow, KreatorFlow had the lowest price on 30 October 2026 for Seedance 2.0 720p, Seedance 2.0 1080p, Seedance 2.0 Fast 720p and Seedance 2.5 720p, as the ranking column shows.
We do not rank Seedance 2.0 Mini 720p and Seedance 2.5 1080p: not all three list a price, so an order would say little about the wider market.
This compares three providers at their regular list prices, not the whole market. Other resellers can be lower at some settings, and temporary promotions are not counted.
BytePlus direct or a BytePlus partner?
Buying from BytePlus gets you its own account, prices and billing terms. KreatorFlow is an official partner of BytePlus, a ByteDance company: you call the same ByteDance models through one REST key, top up from $20 by card, and pay per second at the prices above.
Pick BytePlus direct if you already have a BytePlus account and want to manage it yourself. Pick fal or Replicate if your stack already runs other models there. Pick KreatorFlow if you want Seedance through one key with prepaid billing, refunds on failed jobs and an MCP server for agents.
