Kino API — official Python SDK

Unofficial-free, zero-dependency Python client for Kino API — official full-strength Seedance 2.0 video and Seedream 5.0 image generation. Pure standard library, Python 3.8+.

pip install kinoapi

Quickstart

from kinoapi import KinoClient

kino = KinoClient("sk-YOUR_TOKEN")

# Video (async, ~30-90s, returns the finished video URL)
url = kino.generate_video(
    "seedance-2.0-mini",
    "Wind turbines on a green hillside at dawn, cinematic",
    duration=5,
    resolution="720p",   # 480p / 720p / 1080p / 4k (model-dependent)
    ratio="16:9",        # 16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1
)
print(url)

# Image (sync, ~30s, returns the image URL)
img = kino.generate_image("seedream-5.0-lite", "a tiny paper boat in a puddle")
print(img)

Low-level API

# Video is task-based — fine-grained control:
task = kino.create_video_task("seedance-2.0-mini", "a cat", duration=5,
                              resolution="480p")
print(task["task_id"])
state = kino.get_video_task(task["task_id"])
# state["data"]["status"] == "SUCCESS" -> state["data"]["result_url"]
