| Modality | Description |
|---|---|
| Seedream 5.0 Pro T2I API (Text to Image) | Turn a prompt into a polished image with the Seedream 5.0 Pro Text to Image API, complete with accurate multilingual text and clean, information-dense layouts. It renders at 2K and 3K with cinematic realism for marketing, editorial, and product visuals. |
| Seedream 5.0 Pro Edit API (Image to Image) | The Seedream 5.0 Pro Edit API places edits exactly where you want them with anchors and coordinates, separates images into editable layers, and fuses up to 10 reference images. It matches exact colors and materials while keeping identity consistent, ready for e-commerce, retouching, and asset iteration. |
Every Seedream 5.0 Pro API edit lands exactly where you place it, guided by selections, sketches, color codes, and references, and the model returns cleaner, more cinematic results across many languages.

Point to exactly where an edit should happen using selections, points, arrows, boxes, coordinates, or anchor points. The Seedream 5.0 Pro API changes only that region with high precision, and anchor grounding works best on clear row-and-column layouts.

Feed doodles, color blocks, lines, or rough sketches as a reference, then pair them with a natural-language instruction. Seedream 5.0 Pro turns those marks into real objects or refined image content.

Seedream 5.0 Pro splits an image into independently editable layers you can drag, scale, and recompose afterward. This layer freedom turns a flat render into fine-grained, reusable building blocks.

Provide exact color codes and material requirements, and the Seedream 5.0 Pro API restores or adjusts the target region to match with high precision. This keeps brand colors and surfaces accurate.

With a single instruction, the Seedream 5.0 Pro API fuses objects, styles, and materials from several reference images into one target image. It holds perspective, lighting, and material detail across the composite.

Turn data, text, key concepts, and report content into professional, visually compelling layouts with the Seedream 5.0 Pro API. It lifts information density and layout quality for infographics, decks, and reports.

Seedream 5.0 Pro stably renders text across many languages, including Arabic, Korean, Thai, French, Russian, and Japanese, with accurate character structure. Deeper cultural understanding also restores local attire and patterns more faithfully.
Teams reach for the Seedream 5.0 Pro API across e-commerce, advertising, portrait retouching, film and gaming, and presentation design, wherever identity and scene need to stay consistent through edits.
Change a product's color, material, or background with the Seedream 5.0 Pro API while its structure and scene composition stay intact. Faces, identity, and lighting stay natural, which suits colorways, hero images, and marketplace listings.
The Seedream 5.0 Pro API reuses the same product, character, or brand element across many ad scenes while holding style consistent. This turns campaign posters, social assets, and seasonal variants into a reusable asset workflow.
Restyle a headshot by changing outfit, hair, background, or lighting while the Seedream 5.0 Pro API keeps the same identity and natural skin texture. Controllable local edits make retouching precise rather than destructive.
With layer separation, the Seedream 5.0 Pro API splits character, prop, and background so each can be iterated across shots and scenes. Cross-shot consistency and fast concept iteration support storyboards, key visuals, and visual development.
The Seedream 5.0 Pro API produces clean visual layouts for decks, event posters, and report covers, and refines text-heavy or small-element areas through targeted edits. Small-text rendering is significantly improved, though not yet perfect.
When a campaign ships in multiple markets, the Seedream 5.0 Pro API renders text across 15 prompt languages, including Arabic, Thai, Korean, and Japanese. Localized posters and product visuals keep layout and identity consistent across every version.

No. Seedream 5.0 Pro outputs at 2K and 3K only, so it does not support 4K. If you need 4K, use Seedream 5.0 Lite instead, which supports 2K, 3K, and 4K.
Seedream 5.0 Pro uses usage-based pricing: input images plus the output image by resolution. The first input image is free and each additional input image is $0.003, while output is $0.045 at 1.5K and $0.09 at 2K. This reflects real cost, since extra reference images raise generation cost, and it keeps the common single-image case effectively unchanged, as over 80 percent of requests use no more than one reference image.
At the same 1:1 resolution, Seedream 5.0 Pro is cheaper than Nano Banana 2, roughly 55 percent lower at 1.5K and about 11 percent lower at 2K. Against GPT Image 2 at its native sizes of 1024x1024, 1024x1536, and 1536x1024, the flat $0.045 output price sits far below GPT Image 2 High at $0.165 to $0.211 and is roughly in line with GPT Image 2 Medium at $0.041 to $0.053 for output alone. GPT Image 2 also charges for every input image, whereas Pro includes the first reference image free and charges only $0.003 for each additional one, so with one or more reference images Seedream 5.0 Pro comes out ahead across the board.
Text rendering is significantly improved and good enough for most commercial use cases. Seedream 5.0 Pro natively supports 15 prompt languages, including Arabic, Russian, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Thai, Korean, and Japanese. Like other models, it can still produce the occasional typo, so it is not flawless.
Seedream 5.0 Pro's layer separation splits an image into one background layer plus N element layers, exported as PNG files with an alpha transparency channel. It returns between 2 and 20 images, billed per image, and N is set by the prompt rather than a manual cap. This is what makes the assets editable and reusable in downstream work.
Seedream 5.0 Pro accepts up to 10 input images, while Seedream 5.0 Lite accepts up to 14. The first reference image is free, and each additional image is $0.003.
Yes. Images from Seedream 5.0 Pro are trusted inputs across the Seedance family, including 2.5, 2.0, Fast, and Mini. Text-to-image outputs are trusted automatically, while image-to-image outputs become trusted once the account passes KYC. This exempts input moderation only, not output moderation.
Seedream 5.0 Pro tends to run slower than Lite because it prioritizes higher controllability and quality. It uses parallel processing rather than streaming or progressive output.
