On the same prompts, Seedance 2.0 Fast outscored Veo 3.1 Fast on 3 of 3 scored briefs: faces, the UGC creator ad and the product ad, at $0.47 a clip. Veo costs $0.90 and earns it when the ad needs dialogue generated in the clip.
Seedance 2.0 Fast. Seedance was the most photographic: real window light, freckles, no plastic skin.
Seedance 2.0 Fast. Seedance kept the product readable in frame; in Veo it ended up small.
Seedance 2.0 Fast. Neither is shippable from text alone: Seedance dissolved the label, Veo changed the bottle. Use a start frame.
Veo 3.1 Fast. Veo 3.1 generates native dialogue in one shot.
Neither. Neither. Seedance misspelled the wordmark; Veo's line-art fell apart. Write it in code.
Every brief both models ran, with the identical prompt. Scores are out of 10 for the brief.
Misspelled 'SPRITS'. Automatic DQ for brand work.
Thin line-art that falls apart mid-transition. Not UI-safe.
No video model wins this brief: Claude Opus 5.5 writing the motion in code beat all of them.
Most photographic: real window light, freckles, a smile that reads genuine, no plastic skin.
Cinematic softness, natural blink-to-smile; a touch less skin detail.
Best splash physics of all, but the label text dissolved.
Gorgeous, but swapped in a spray-pump bottle and pouring liquid: off-brief.
Natural creator delivery; product stays readable in frame. Winner of this brief.
Natural creator energy and native audio; product ends up small.
On faces and UGC, yes: Seedance 2.0 Fast scored higher than Veo 3.1 Fast on the same prompts, at about half the price per clip. Veo is the better pick when the ad needs spoken dialogue generated in the clip.
Veo 3.1 when the dialogue has to come out of the model in one shot. Seedance 2.0 when the voiceover is added in the edit or driven by an audio reference, where its faces read more real.
Seedance 2.0 Fast, at $0.47 a clip against $0.90 for Veo 3.1 Fast.
