智东西China AI News(@Chinazhidx):🚨Seedance 2.5 API just added Draft Mode. Generate a 480p Draft first. Select the shot you want, then turn it into a 1080p final using the same key settings. The final stays highly consistent with the Draft, while delivering native 1080p quality — at a much lower cost. For a 5-second clip, 4 generations to find the right shot can cut costs by 57% and nearly double generation speed. The more complex the shots and the more iterations needed, the more Draft Mode can save.
