Kunavo vs calling ByteDance directly

Same Seedance 2.5 weights, same responses. What a gateway changes is the account, the SDK and the bill — here is the honest side-by-side.

BillingOne Stripe balance, pay-as-you-go, never expires; failed requests unbilledA separate invoice per provider
Rate limitsShared gateway capacity, no contractual per-account limitByteDance's own tier limits, raised by usage history or contract
