Get started

One product shot, every seasonal scene

An e-commerce team can shoot a product once, then use Seedream 4.5 to place it in seasonal scenes, lifestyle shots and clean white-background images, with the model working to keep the label, shape and color from the reference photo.

Event posters with small type that holds up

One client brief, several poster directions, all before the first review. For a freelance graphic designer, Seedream 4.5's improved dense text rendering is aimed at this: dates, venue names and ticket info set in small type.

Logo routes before the first design meeting

A brand designer can explore early logo routes with Seedream 4.5, then upload the client's existing storefront or packaging as a reference to see how each mark could sit against its lighting and color tone.

Beauty campaign key visuals

Start from the real serum bottle and test water, petals, silk or stone behind it. For a beauty brand's marketing team, Seedream 4.5 is designed to preserve the bottle's details, lighting and color tone from the reference photo.

Packaging mockups for sign-off

A packaging designer can show a new label on a bag, box or bottle, in context, before anything is printed. Seedream 4.5's improved dense text rendering helps here: ingredient panels and tasting notes in the mockup itself.

One winning ad, a second market

Take a winning ad into a new market. A performance marketing team can ask Seedream 4.5 to translate its headline and callouts, with the model designed to keep the layout, product and visual style from the original.

FAQs

What is Seedream 4.5, and who made it?: ByteDance Seedream 4.5 is an image generation and editing model from ByteDance's Seed team. Model hosts list its release in late 2025. It's built for consistent multi-image edits, portraits and text-heavy design. On ImagineArt it's listed as Seedream v4.5: pick it in the image tool's model picker.
Is Seedream 4.5 the newest Seedream model?: No. Seedream 5.0 Lite and Seedream 5.0 Pro are newer versions, and both are on ImagineArt. Pick 5.0 Pro for native 4K generation, spatial reasoning and infographics, and 5.0 Lite for fast, high-quality output. Seedream 4.5 suits quick generation and reference-faithful edits with readable text.
Is Seedream 4.5 free on ImagineArt?: Not necessarily. ImagineArt's free plan gives you 100 credits a day on a limited set of models, such as ImagineArt 1.0 Lite and Flux Dev, and premium models aren't included on it. Check the model picker or the pricing page to see which plan includes Seedream 4.5 before you start a project around it.
What changed from Seedream 4.0 to Seedream 4.5?: ByteDance says Seedream 4.5 improves on Seedream 4.0 in editing consistency, keeping subject details, lighting and color tone across edits.

On ByteDance’s internal MagicBench test, it scores higher for prompt adherence, alignment and aesthetics.
How does Seedream 4.5 compare with Nano Banana Pro?: We haven't found an independent benchmark of Seedream 4.5 vs Nano Banana Pro that we'd stand behind.

Both are listed among ImagineArt's image models, so the fastest way to decide is to run one prompt through each.
Can Seedream 4.5 edit an image using several references and keep text readable?: It's built for both. ByteDance says it identifies the main subjects across your references and keeps faces, lighting and color tone. ByteDance also improved its typography and dense text rendering.
