01

What is KinoAPI?

KinoAPI is an independent relay for video and image generation, with a private cloud canvas. Use Seedance through an asynchronous video API and Seedream through a synchronous image API, with one KinoAPI account and balance. It is not affiliated with ByteDance or Volcano Engine.

02

How is Seedance 2.5 billed?

Seedance 2.5 is billed by actual reported tokens: $15.61875 per million tokens without video input, or $9.345 per million tokens with video input. Video-input usage can include the reference. These are not per-second prices. See the pricing page and your final task record.

03

Which model ID should I use?

Use seedance-2.5 for text or image input. Use seedance-2.5-video when metadata.content contains a video reference; this mode currently requires adaptive ratio and Auto duration (-1). Both route to Seedance 2.5. Check GET /v1/models for availability on your key.
