Overseas markets now account for 50% of revenue from ByteDance’s Seedance video-generation model, according to a November 3 report by 36Kr’s AI publication Zhinen Yongxian. A person close to ByteDance’s cloud business, Volcano Engine, told the outlet that Seedance’s overseas revenue had increased nearly fivefold over the past six months.
The report also identified major Chinese internet companies as significant customers. Tencent ranks among Seedance’s top three customers in China by token consumption and revenue contribution, while Bilibili ranks in the top 10, according to people familiar with the business. The figures offer a glimpse of enterprise demand for ByteDance’s video-generation technology, although the report did not disclose absolute revenue. [36Kr, in Chinese]
