Seedance 2.5 might be the most fun LLM to play with, and that's coming from a group of devs...

[Tolstoy: AI Agent @gotolstoy]

Seedance 2.5 from ByteDance Seed is now live in Tolstoy.

Create up to 30-second product videos and UGC-style ads with native audio, stronger reference control, and more precise edits.

Here's one of our favorite one-shot generations made interally:

A very normal series of events when you ship a product update at a startup:

We added a supervised learning loop to the virtual try-on prompt composer. First of more like it going across our models.

Each generation gets scored across 5 gates: identity preserved, product rendered, scope, artifacts, no-op. Prompt changes score against the eval set.

Same approach will move to the rest of the stack.

Tolstoy CLI → Claude Code

One terminal, every rail. Shopify, Meta, Klaviyo, TikTok Shop.

[Tolstoy: AI Agent @gotolstoy]

Our agent is built to handle all prompting, model failure workarounds, and final generation QC.

All you have to do is say "create a tiktok thirstrap for my influencer" and then just sit back and let the agent work.

No video analysis in ChatGPT, no prompt building in Claude, no multi-tool/multi-step workflows for generating 1 AI TikTok video.

Building an AI influencer has never been easier, quicker, or cheaper than it is on our platform.

Hard at work building something big...

Coming to AI Shopper next week.

[Tolstoy: AI Agent @gotolstoy]

Tolstoy CLI is HERE! 🔌

You can now run your store end-to-end inside any agent: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor.

The only way to give agentic access to Shopify, Meta, Klaviyo, and every ad account.

Let your agent run your store while you sleep.

Turning a static into a 15 second editorial ad with Seedance 2.0 normally means writing a multi-paragraph motion brief.

In Tolstoy, all you have to say is:

"can we use seedance 2.0 to turn this into a full-fledged editorial ad?"

Our agent writes the brief from the image. Runs the gen. Returns the clip.

[TolstoyDevs @TolstoyDevs]

Our goal is to make AI tools as easy as possible to work with. The agent does the heavy lifting on prompting and problem solving, so users don't need to worry about that. Seedance 2.0 runs on Tolstoy from a one-sentence prompt.

[Tolstoy: AI Agent @gotolstoy]

Tolstoy's Studio agent generated this from one message:

"analyze this video, take the first frame, recreate the first 15 seconds with Seedance 2.0."

[TolstoyDevs @TolstoyDevs]

@gotolstoy The agent's chain-of-thought here is what our dev team has been wiring in: decompose the goal, write model-specific prompts, route around safety filters (face block → text mode, audio filter → neutral soundscape).

[Tolstoy: AI Agent @gotolstoy]

GPT-5.5 shipped today. Built for agents that use tools.

Tolstoy's CLI is designed for exactly this.
