Plan a campaign scene
Start with the product or subject, its setting, and the intended layout. Leave room for copy rather than asking the image to carry every element.

The bigger picture
Build a visual series around a consistent brief
Seedream is ByteDance’s image generation family. A useful starting project is a set of related visuals: a product in several settings, illustrations for a story, or images for a campaign. Write down the subject and style that should remain consistent before you compare variations.
Version numbers and suffixes both matter. Seedream 4 and 4.5 are separate releases, while Lite and Flash identify distinct options in the 5 generation. The table covers the versions available in Quickmake. Use the linked release guides for individual workflows and the source links to distinguish an announcement date from an integration listing.
Ways to use Seedream
Develop a visual series
Reuse a clear description of the palette, framing, and materials across your briefs. Compare the set for consistency.
Refine with a reference
Provide a source image and specify the intended change. Check the original against the result before continuing your design.
Where to start
- Compare Lite and Flash within one image-generation workflow.
- Use text prompts for concepts and references for directed variations.
- Keep your visual brief specific enough to judge whether a result meets it.
What to check
- Lite and Flash are distinct integrations; check their available settings and estimates individually.
- A coordinated series still needs review for lighting, palette, and subject consistency.
- Reference-based edits can alter details outside the intended change; inspect the whole result.
