01
Separate the change from the subject
Write the change you want, then list the subject details you will compare afterward. For example, change the background while checking the clothing, face, and pose against the reference.
Seedream Image Generator
Describe the image you want to change, identify details to keep, and use supported references to guide a new attempt. Compare the result with your original brief.
Prompt Examples
How can these concept references guide a Seedream Image brief?
The four images illustrate compositions you can describe and inspect. They are concept references, not verified outputs from this website or evidence of a model benchmark.
Image workflow
How do you build a reference-led revision with Seedream Image?
Work on one visual direction at a time. A clear brief makes it easier to inspect the result and decide what to change next.
02
Choose a supported reference input
If the selected model accepts reference images, choose one that clarifies your product or scene. Check the visible input limits and assign each reference a clear role in your brief.
03
Inspect one result at full size
Compare the output with the source image at full size. Check the requested change and the details you intended to keep; references guide the result but do not guarantee exact preservation.
04
Prepare the final asset externally
Finish exact typography, retouching, and layout in an external editor. A campaign set is planned through separate image requests; it is not an in-app batch or layout feature.
Technology
What does Seedream Image add to your image brief?
Seedream Image is an independent image workspace for reference-guided image creation and revision. Available Seedream choices include 5.0, 4.5, and 4.0; the selected model and its displayed settings determine each request.
Make the destination part of the brief
A product listing and a campaign concept ask different things of an image. Name the destination, then describe the crop, background, and space that will help the asset fit it.
- Choose one intended placement for the first attempt.
- Describe the subject size within the composition.
- Leave room for typography you will add externally.
Give each reference a clear role
When a model accepts references, explain which image guides the subject and which guides the setting or style. Check the available inputs instead of assuming every model accepts the same set.
- Identify the product or person reference explicitly.
- Describe which visual change matters for this attempt.
- Compare important source details after generation.
Review the details that affect use
Inspect the returned image beyond its overall mood. Packaging geometry, small type, hands, and reflections can require another attempt or work in an external editor.
- Zoom in on labels, logos, edges, and repeated shapes.
- Compare lighting direction with the original brief.
- Check the crop at the size of its final placement.
Build a set through separate decisions
Plan a small group of images by writing one brief for each placement. Save the direction that works, then make a deliberate change for the next request; there is no automatic campaign assembly here.
- Keep a note of the chosen crop and backdrop.
- Change one visual direction between attempts.
- Arrange final assets in an external design tool.
Real-world uses for Seedream Image
Where can Seedream Image fit into an image revision workflow?
Choose a concrete destination for the image before writing the brief. The crop and review criteria for a listing, portrait, presentation, and billboard can differ.
A packshot with room for listing copy
Plan the product size, background, and empty space needed for a listing. Use a supported product reference when useful, and compare the label, cap, and outline before preparing the final layout.
A fashion poster concept
The VELVET DROP poster illustrates how a subject, headline, and background can share a composition. Describe their placement in your brief, then inspect text and spacing in the generated result.
A home still life
Use the vase-and-books scene to practice a focused image brief. Specify object placement, light, and crop, then inspect edges and proportions before keeping the result.
A four-panel material moodboard
Use the illustrated board to describe texture, colour, and the relationship between panels. Review individual details and arrange your final selections in a separate design editor.
Review each revision
What should you check before a Seedream Image request?
Choose the model by the inputs and settings visible in the generator. Review the displayed credit cost before submitting; support varies between models and modes.
The inputs accepted by the selected model
Check whether the current mode accepts text, a reference, or other visible input options. Match your brief to those controls instead of relying on a capability from another model.
The format needed for your placement
Choose from the sizes and aspect ratios actually shown for the selected model. Plan any later crop in your external editor and inspect whether important content remains within it.
The cost shown before submission
Review the current credit estimate after choosing settings. New purchases are paused; an account needs an available credit balance to submit a generation request.
The result you will inspect afterward
Set review criteria before generating: subject details, composition, text, and the intended change from a reference. Keep or revise the attempt according to those criteria.
Credits
How do credits affect your Seedream Image workflow?
Check the account balance and current generation estimate before planning further attempts. New checkout is paused, so these pages do not promise free or unlimited generation.
Use the balance visible in your account
Sign in to check the credits currently available to that account. An existing balance is required for generation while new purchases remain paused.
Review the estimate after choosing settings
Model and output choices can affect the displayed credit cost. Read the estimate for the current request instead of assuming another model or earlier attempt has the same cost.
Keep each attempt focused
Give one request a clear review goal. Inspect the result before deciding whether another attempt is useful, and retain the details of the brief you want to revisit.
Check the recorded task and balance
If a request fails or its status is unclear, review the task status and account balance before resubmitting. Contact support with the task reference if the outcome needs investigation.
What should you know before using Seedream Image?
Answers about the site identity, request workflow, references, credits, and the limits of the concept examples.
Site identity and model selection
Distinguish the website brand from the actual model selected for a generation request.
References and result review
Check supported inputs and inspect the returned details before using an output.
Planning and external editing
Use separate requests for your planned assets and finish assembly or detailed editing externally.
Credits, checkout, and examples
Understand the paused purchase flow and the role of the concept illustrations.
Still tools for Seedream Image frames
Which image pages can support your Seedream Image brief?
These linked image pages offer other places to inspect available inputs and settings. Their illustrations are concept references, not comparative tests or verified outputs from the named model.
GPT-4o for a lettering brief
Open the image page to inspect its available inputs and cost. Use a lettering concept to plan composition, then check every word in the result.
Nano Banana pages for two reference directions
Inspect the Pro and Nano Banana 2 pages separately. The fashion and group portraits illustrate different briefs; they do not establish one model as better for either subject.
Seedream 4 for an illustrated scene brief
Review the image page before submitting an illustrated scene. Use the concept preview to think about subject placement and background detail, then inspect your own result.
Z-Image and Flux 2 for portrait and fashion concepts
Compare the settings available on each image page and decide what your brief needs. The portrait and monochrome fashion previews show visual directions, not performance rankings.

Concept reference: close-up portrait with cinematic side light. This illustration is not a verified GPT-4o output.
