## Summary

ByteDance's cloud unit Volcano Engine released Seedance 2.5 Flash on November 12, a lighter video generation model that the company says generates video twice as fast as Seedance 2.5 at about 34% lower price. For text-to-video and image-to-video at 720p, it costs about 0.99 yuan per second of generated video and produces clips of up to 30 seconds. The model rolls out on ByteDance's Jimeng platform and third-party tools now, with API access on Volcano Ark scheduled for November 15.
