Budget Channels 933 / 431

Coming soon

The number is the reference-input limit: 933 = 9 images + 3 videos + 3 audios (same as official), 431 = 4 images + 3 videos + 1 audio

Unofficial budget channels with lower prices and slightly weaker stability — great for high-frequency iteration and early validation, not for critical paths. Integration is in progress; pricing will appear on the pricing page and console once live.

Stay tuned

Recommended combo: draft with Mini / Fast (or their 720P deal versions) to lock direction, then finish with Standard — quality and cost combined. Available versions are subject to the console model list.

Decide in 30 seconds

01

Need 4K / 1080P or going to production?

Go with Standard on the official channel — every capability, top stability. If 720P is enough, switch to the Standard deal version at up to ~40% off.

02

Need fast drafts and high-concurrency previews?

Pick Fast for quicker turnaround; move batch drafting to the Fast 720P deal version to cut costs one notch further.

03

720P is enough and volume is high?

Whichever edition you run — Standard, Fast, or Mini — switch to its 720P deal version: same capability, lower unit price, bigger savings at scale.

04

Squeezing every cent?

Run volume on Mini or the Mini 720P deal version. Budget channels 933 / 431 are not live yet — once launched they will be a low-cost option for trials.

Official Pricing vs APIPod

Official billing is token-based; APIPod bills per second. The table below puts both side by side, with a 720p · 15s example so the difference is obvious at a glance.

Billed at 8.8–9% off the official list price by default; contact us for deeper volume discounts.

Official prices are BytePlus ModelArk list prices (USD / M tokens); APIPod prices are per-second, read live from platform model configs. Rows tagged "Deal" are each edition's 720P deal version; budget channels 933 / 431 are not live yet. 4K is live on the standard tier; "—" means the edition has no per-second price configured yet.

Do the math: 720p · 15s · no reference video

Official billing uses estimated token usage: 720p ≈ 21,600 tokens/sec, so 15s ≈ 324K tokens; APIPod is a flat per-second price — no conversion needed.

Seedance 2.0 FAQ

Seedance 2.0 FAQ
What's the difference between Standard / Fast / Mini, their 720P deal versions, and budget channels 933 / 431?

Seedance 2.0 ships in three editions — Standard, Fast, and Mini — and each offers an official channel plus a 720P deal version. Official channels carry every capability with the highest stability, billed at 8.8–9% off list price by default. The 720P deal versions match the official capability, focus on 720P output, and run up to ~40% cheaper. Budget channels 933 / 431 — where the number is the reference-input limit (933 = 9 images + 3 videos + 3 audios, 431 = 4 + 3 + 1) — are not live yet; once launched they will suit low-cost iteration.

Is Seedance 2.0 only text-to-video?

No. It supports text, image, video, and audio guided generation in one workflow.

Are budget channels 933 / 431 stable enough for production?

933 / 431 are not live yet. As unofficial channels, queue times and failure rates will run slightly higher than official channels at peak hours, and pricing may fluctuate. Once launched, use them with APIPod's retry and multi-channel failover; for critical production paths we recommend the official channel or the 720P deal version of each edition.

What output range should I expect?

Most teams start with short multi-shot clips. Exact limits depend on your enabled channel and policy settings.

Can it keep consistency across multiple shots?

Yes. Directed prompts plus reusable references are designed to improve character and style continuity.

Where can I see live pricing for each version?

Filter for Seedance 2.0 on the pricing page to see per-resolution, per-duration rates for Standard / Fast / Mini and their 720P deal versions. Budget channels 933 / 431 are not live yet — actual charges apply once launched.

How does APIPod help in production?

APIPod gives you one API layer for authentication, routing, observability, and cost governance across model channels.
