Which plan to pickUse the free credits to test Seedance and Seedream on your own product or idea. If you'll make a few videos a month, Basic is enough. Yearly plans cost much less per month, and watch for intro offers on the first month.An individual should take Professional: the free redo is worth the extra $10 over Basic. Companies should use the Team plan, where credits never expire and the per-person price drops as you buy more.There's nothing to buy for the names themselves. If you want a logo for the name you pick, Brandmark sells one-off logo packages from $35, but you can take the name anywhere.
