> A production model for coherent scenes, accurate edits and reference-heavy creative work.

Canonical URL: https://allimageai.com/models/seedream-5-pro/

Website: All Image AI

Language: English

Seedream 5 Pro combines prompt-based generation with editing from as many as ten reference images. It is strongest when a scene must keep several products, people or visual cues coherent instead of treating every reference as a loose suggestion.

## Best for

- Multi-reference composition
- Product and campaign scenes
- Prompt-driven edits
- Consistent subjects across variations

## How to use

1. Choose a mode and upload references when needed.
2. Describe what to preserve and what to change.
3. Generate at 1K while iterating.
4. Render the chosen direction at 2K.

## Settings explained

### Reference Images

Upload up to ten and identify each one by order in the prompt.

### Resolution

Use 1K for iteration and 2K for the selected final composition.

## Prompt examples

### Campaign scene

> Place the product from image 1 in the studio setting from image 2, preserve the package design exactly, soft side light, premium editorial photography

### Controlled edit

> Keep the subject and pose unchanged; replace only the jacket with the navy garment shown in the reference

## Limitations

- 2K maximum output
- Ten references still need clear roles in the prompt
- Dense small typography should be checked before publishing

## Pricing and credits

Credits for one image at default quality and mode. Resolution, quality, reference inputs, edit mode and output count can change the total. Check the Generate button before submitting.

| Resolution | Credits / image |
| --- | --- |
| 1K | 4 |
| 2K | 7 |

Failed generations cost 0 credits. Catalog availability does not guarantee runtime availability; the workspace reports whether the selected model can run.

## Commercial use and image handling

Commercial use is governed by ByteDance's model terms and the selected service terms.

Uploads are processed by the configured inference service. You can delete a generation from your history.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can it combine more than one reference?

Yes. It accepts up to ten; numbered instructions make the relationship between them clearer.

### Does editing silently replace the model?

No. Editing uses a documented Seedream 5 Pro operation for the same model generation.
