Create images with Seedream 5.0

Seedream 5.0 is an image generation model from ByteDance Seed. Its key features are web search right during generation, multi-step reasoning before rendering, and learning transformations from before/after pairs. Flami offers Seedream 5.0 Lite, a version with deep thinking and online search.

The key difference: it's the only model in Flami's catalog that searches the web during generation. That matters when you need current events, new products, real locations, or current trends. Seedream can also learn an edit from a before/after pair: give it one example of a transformation, and it repeats it on new images.

Seedream 4.5 focuses on photorealistic imagery and character consistency. Seedream 5.0 adds real-time web search, multi-step reasoning, and example-pair training. Version 5.0 is about intelligence and accuracy with up-to-date information, while 4.5 is about pure visual quality.

If the prompt involves time-sensitive topics, current events, real locations, or specific products, Seedream 5.0 automatically searches the web for up-to-date information. There's nothing to turn on manually: the model decides on its own when a search is needed.

It's a mechanism where you show the model two images, the original and its edited version, and Seedream 5.0 learns the transformation you want. You can then apply the same edit to new images without describing it in words every time. Handy for transferring filters, color grading, swapping objects, and style tweaks.

The price depends on resolution, whether online search is used, and task complexity. On the Start and Pro plans, you get a monthly credit pack with a fixed price per image. See the pricing section for the exact cost.

The base render is 2K, with the option to upscale to 4K. Formats include 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, and more. That covers square Instagram posts, vertical stories, horizontal banners, cinematic formats, and print materials.

15 to 40 seconds, depending on task complexity. When the model needs to search the web for up-to-date information or work through multi-step scene logic, generation takes a bit longer than usual.

No. Seedream 5.0 is available right inside Flami with a regular Start or Pro subscription. No need to sign up with ByteDance or Dreamina or pay for anything separately: all models live in one account.

Every generation uses credits. On a paid plan, you get a monthly credit pack and spend it on creating images. If you run out, you can buy extra credits as a one-time purchase.

Credits refresh automatically at the start of each billing period. Unused credits from last month don't carry over, so if you didn't use up your allowance, you can switch to a smaller plan next month.

You can buy extra credits as a one-time purchase or switch to a bigger plan. The new pack becomes available right after payment, no need to wait until the end of the month.

Yes, anytime. In the Subscriptions section, turn off auto-renewal: your current paid period runs its course, and nothing gets charged after that.
