Want the lowest net cost? Start with Higgsfield

The raw APIs below win on price-per-second. But Higgsfield is the only host that pays you back — post your renders through Higgsfield Earn and it pays per views, which for anyone posting reels can more than offset the higher rate. It's also the fastest to a cinematic result: motion presets and camera moves, no API wiring. The honest price table is right below — pick your lane.

How we calculate this

Pay-as-you-go API hosts show the own published price for Seedance 2.0 image-to-video at the Standard tier, 720p (tap source on any row). Credit/subscription tools (tagged subscription) can't be priced per-second directly, so we compute an effective $/sec rangefrom each plan's published price × the credits a clip costs — hover the range to see the per-plan breakdown. Every row is ranked by its cheapest available rate(the low end of the range). No estimates or back-calculated numbers.

Other tools that run Seedance 2.0

These run Seedance 2.0 too, but don't expose a per-video cost at all — so they can't be ranked on $/second without guessing.

Official ByteDance consumer app — credit-based, per-video cost not exposed

ByteDance's own app and the cheapest route for casual use (free daily credits + ~$18/mo Basic). Priced in credits (~115 per 5-sec clip), capped monthly, and it doesn't expose a stable per-second cost.
