  "why_included": "Seedance 2.5 adds multimodal video generation and local edits to AI Gateway, with clips up to 30 seconds and separate image and video references.",
  "summary": "**Seedance 2.5** is available through AI Gateway as bytedance/seedance-2.5. It generates clips up to **30 seconds**, accepts text, video, image, and audio together, and supports prompts in **more than ten languages**.",
  "practical_implication": "Builders can use referenceImages for appearance and referenceVideos for motion, camera work, or pacing. Existing footage can also be edited locally to swap elements while retaining its framing, camera, and timing.",
  "agent_context": "**Seedance 2.5** is available through AI Gateway as bytedance/seedance-2.5.

Combining those roles ambiguously in one prompt produces less stable results, so each source asset needs an explicit purpose.",

  "connected_context": {
    "meaning": "This broadens AI Gateway’s video routes with clips up to 30 seconds, multilingual prompts, combined multimodal inputs, and two distinct workflows: references guide new generation, while editing changes existing footage. The explicit asset roles make prompt and pipeline design consequential; availability alone still provides no comparative evidence on quality, latency, cost, or consistency.",
