What is the Seedance API?

Seedance is ByteDance's text-to-video and image-to-video family for short, prompt-directed clips. Muapi exposes the current Lite and Pro variants through the same asynchronous submit-and-poll workflow.

Choose Pro for higher-fidelity scenes, Pro Fast for faster and lower-cost iteration, or Lite for lightweight previews. The standard endpoints support 480p, 720p, and 1080p output; Lite Reference to Video accepts up to four reference images and supports 480p or 720p.

Quick start — Seedance API code examples

Submit a Seedance video task with your Muapi key, receive a request ID, and poll the shared predictions endpoint for the completed video URL.

1. Submit a Seedance job

curl -X POST https://api.muapi.ai/api/v1/seedance-pro-t2v \
