Seedream 5.0 Flash turns a written description, with up to 14 reference pictures if you have them, into one image in HD or 2K, in shapes from tall 9:21 to wide 21:9. It is the quick version of Seedream 5.0, made for interactive use and for runs of many images. Pick it while you refine a look or fill a catalogue.
Seedream 4.5 takes a written description and up to 14 reference pictures and draws up to ten images per request, in HD, 2K or 4K. Its strength is editing consistency: when you change a picture it keeps the subject's details, so a product or a face stays the same across variations. Pick it for batches of variants on one subject.
Seedream 5.0 Pro creates and edits images: send a written description and up to 14 reference pictures, and get one image in HD or 2K. It is the version for commercial visual work where an edit has to change exactly what you asked and leave the rest alone, and where scenes must look lifelike.
Seedream 5.0 Lite makes images from a written description plus up to 14 reference pictures, in 2K or 4K, and returns up to four per request. It works out what you mean and can look things up online, so requests about current news or real places draw from fresh information. Use it for complex briefs and for large prints or posters. Seedream 5.0 Flash is quicker but tops out at 2K; Seedream 5.0 Pro is the one for precise edits.
