Seedance 2.0 generates up to 15 seconds per shot; Kling generates up to 10. For longer shots, generate individual clips on either model and instruct the invideo agent to stitch them together — this bypasses per-model length caps without switching platforms.
Seedance 2.0 generates up to 15 seconds per shot; Kling generates up to 10 seconds per shot. Both exceed the 8-second ceiling of older-generation models. For shots longer than either cap, generate individual clips on either model and instruct the invideo agent to stitch them together — this bypasses per-model length limits without switching platforms, because every model runs inside the same workspace.
These caps matter most when you're planning previz, where shot duration decides how you batch generations — the full breakdown of the five documented AI previz workflows covers how those batches fit into a complete pipeline.
Direct answer
Seedance 2.0 has the longer cap of the two: up to 15 seconds per generated shot, versus Kling's 10 seconds. Plan your shot list around those numbers — any shot that fits inside 15 seconds is a single generation on Seedance 2.0; anything inside 10 seconds can run on either model.
For shots longer than 15 seconds, don't look for a different platform. Generate the shot as individual clips on whichever model you're using, then instruct the invideo agent to stitch them together into one continuous shot. The stitch happens inside the same chat that holds your project context, so character, palette, and framing carry across the seam. This effectively removes the per-model length cap as a planning constraint: the cap governs generation length, not final shot length.
Both caps apply per generation, not per session. You can queue multiple shots in a single pass — one documented previz workflow feeds a 3×3 grid of 9 shots to Seedance 2.0 in one generation pass. If you're batching that way, split the 9 shots into three sets of three before feeding them in: it prevents plasticky-looking output and gives you more control over edit pacing, because each set can get its own feedback.
Which model for which shot
Route by duration first, then by shot type. Seedance 2.0 is the default for longer continuous takes — the 15-second cap covers most dialogue beats and camera moves in one generation, and its reference-to-video mode carries character context across clips, which keeps stitched shots consistent. Kling caps at 10 seconds per clip, and Kling 3.0 generates multi-shot sequences natively — useful when you want a cut sequence rather than one continuous take.
You don't have to pick a platform per model. invideo carries all the current video models — Seedance 2.0, Kling, Veo — and the invideo agent routes each shot to the right one based on what the shot needs, then handles the stitching when a shot outruns any single model's cap. One practical note for Seedance 2.0 specifically, from Hridaye, invideo's creative director: "The lesser ingredients you put into seed dance, the better outputs you get" — keep each generation's inputs lean, and let shot length come from stitching rather than overloaded single prompts.
FAQ
How long can Seedance 2.0 generate per shot?
Seedance 2.0 generates up to 15 seconds per shot — the longest cap among current video models, and nearly double Kling's 10-second limit. That's per generation: a single request returns one clip up to 15 seconds long, and you can batch multiple shots per pass using grids.
How do I make a shot longer than 15 seconds?
Generate the shot as individual clips on any model, then instruct the invideo agent to stitch them together into one continuous shot. Because the invideo agent holds your project context — character, palette, framing — across generations, the stitched clips read as one take. This bypasses per-model length caps entirely, so plan shot length around your edit, not around the model's ceiling.
