Seedance 2.5 API FAQ
How much does the Seedance 2.5 API cost?
The documented sample request costs 45,113 MakeInfluencer credits. Final cost depends on the exact model inputs, and the preview-credits endpoint returns an exact quote without charging.
Does the Seedance 2.5 API use a separate balance?
No. REST, MCP, and the MakeInfluencer dashboard use the same account credit balance.
Can I call Seedance 2.5 from Claude or Cursor?
Yes. The MakeInfluencer MCP connector exposes Seedance 2.5 to agent clients such as Claude and Cursor, and generations draw from the same credit balance as the REST API.
What are the Seedance 2.5 API rate limits?
120 authenticated requests and 20 generations per minute per account. A 429 response includes Retry-After, and an Idempotency-Key header makes retries safe.
How do I receive Seedance 2.5 results?
Creation returns HTTP 202 with a generation ID. Poll the video generation-status endpoint until terminal is true. On success, ready is true and the response contains the output URL.
