FROM IDEA TO RESULT

What can you do with Seedance 2.5?

A clear sequence of actions

Describe the action in order and identify the shot's key moment. Useful for story fragments, demonstrations and advertising sketches.

Combine style and movement

Specify character movement, camera behavior and visual style. Start with one scene to evaluate the direction before producing a series.

A scene from a written brief

Start without a prepared first frame. Describe the setting, action and camera movement, then choose generation settings.

Work from existing footage

Use source footage in a supported operation. Describe the requested changes separately from the elements that should remain recognizable.

Where it fits

Story fragments, product demonstrations, dynamic social clips and animation concepts.

How to get a useful result

Avoid packing too many events into a short clip. In reference modes, explain whether the source should guide appearance, movement or composition.

TRANSPARENT PRICING

How much does it cost?

MODEL CONTEXT PROTOCOL

Use Seedance 2.5 via MCP

Connect Syntasy in your AI client and authorize access. Ask it to find this model, calculate the price and show the settings before generation.

  1. Open Access & tokens in the MCP section and create an MCP token.
  2. Add the server URL to your client: /api/mcp
  3. Ask: “Find Seedance 2.5. Show its modes and estimate the cost before starting.”
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "syntasy_list_models",
    "arguments": {
      "kind": "video",
      "query": "Seedance 2.5"
    }
  }
}

The example discovers models and does not start a paid generation. Replace YOUR_MCP_TOKEN with your own token.

Frequently asked questions

What are Syntasy tokens?

They are the shared balance used to pay for models in Syntasy. Token pack prices are available on the pricing page. View token packs

Why can the final cost differ from the base rate?

A per-second tariff is multiplied by duration, an image tariff by output count, and a character tariff by text length. Check the estimate on the website or use syntasy_estimate_generation via MCP for your chosen settings.
