Is the AI video generator really free?

Yes. You can generate text-to-video clips at 480p with no login and no credit card. Free use is capped, and registered users get free daily credits plus the option to unlock 1080p HD, longer clips, and image-to-video.

Which AI model does SDMini use?

SDMini runs Seedance Mini, ByteDance's newest AI video model. We built the whole tool around it to keep generation fast, cinematic, and affordable.

What lengths and sizes can I generate?

Clips come in 5, 8, or 10 seconds, up to 1080p HD, in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1. You can generate from a text prompt or from an image.

Do I need any video editing skills?

No. You describe the shot or upload a photo and the model does the rest. There is no timeline, no keyframing, and nothing to install.

Free AI video generator powered by Seedance Mini

SDMini is an AI video generator built around Seedance Mini, ByteDance's newest video model. You type a prompt or upload an image, and you get a clean, cinematic clip in seconds. There is no editing suite to learn and no queue to babysit.

The free tier runs text-to-video at 480p with no login and no credit card, so you can test the model on your own idea before you commit. When you sign in you get free daily credits and can unlock 1080p HD, longer clips, and image-to-video.

Every clip can render in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 at lengths of 5, 8, or 10 seconds, so the output drops straight into a landscape edit, a vertical feed, or a square post.

1
Describe the shot or add a photo
Write what you want to see — the subject, the setting, the camera move — or upload an image to animate. Plain, specific language works best.
2
Pick length, ratio, and quality
Choose 5, 8, or 10 seconds and 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1. Try 480p free, or sign in to render up to 1080p HD without a watermark.
3
Generate and download
Seedance Mini renders in seconds. Preview the clip, then download the MP4 ready to post or drop into your timeline.

Text-to-video and image-to-video

Start from a written prompt or animate a still photo, including first-frame and last-frame control for image-to-video.

Cinematic camera motion

Seedance Mini handles smooth pans, push-ins, and orbits, so clips read like deliberate shots rather than random drift.

Up to 1080p HD

Render at 480p on the free tier or unlock 1080p HD when you sign in. Paid exports carry no watermark.

Every aspect ratio

Export 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for TikTok and Reels, or 1:1 for feed posts — no extra cropping step.

Seconds, not minutes

The Mini model is tuned for speed, so you can iterate on a prompt quickly instead of waiting on a long render.

Free to start, low to scale

Try it with no account. Paid plans start around $9.90 per month, with no credit card needed to begin.
