From your idea to a download

  1. Start with an idea

    Write a prompt or choose an example. Add a reference photo when you want to edit an existing image.

  2. Choose the finish

    Select 1K, 1.5K or 2K. Use PNG for transparency, or JPEG for a photograph with a solid background.

  3. Create, refine, download

    Generate your image, continue editing from the result, and download the version you like.

Keep refining the same image

Change the setting, adjust a small detail or try a different material. Seedream 5.5 is designed to keep the surrounding image consistent across edits. Continue with your result to build on the last version.

Make room for your design

Choose Transparent to create a PNG with an alpha channel. Make cutout products, stickers, characters and lettering that can sit naturally in your next layout.

Bring texture and type together

Describe the light, surface and composition for a believable scene. For posters and infographics, include the exact words and a clear hierarchy to guide the layout.

What is new in Seedream 5.5?

Can I edit the same photo again?

Yes. Upload a reference photo and describe what to change. You can then continue editing from your result, keeping each version in your workspace.
