doubao-seedream-5-0-260128Doubao Seedream 5.0 Lite is ByteDance Doubao's image model, accessed through the official Volcano Ark API for stable, first-party quality. One endpoint covers both text-to-image (omit `image`) and image-to-image / multi-image fusion editing (pass one or more `image`s), auto-routing by whether a reference is present. Output is clean 2K or 4K PNG with no watermark, ready to drop straight into e-commerce and design pipelines. Note that image-to-image whose output still carries a real person's identity is rejected by Volcano content review (anti-deepfake); use synthetic or non-real-person references. About $0.055/image, well under official pricing.

Doubao Seedream 5.0 Lite is ByteDance Doubao's image model, accessed through the official Volcano Ark API. One endpoint covers both text-to-image (omit `image`) and image-to-image / multi-image edit (pass `image`), with 2K or 4K PNG output and no watermark.
It auto-routes by whether you pass `image`: no reference image → text-to-image; one or more reference images → image-to-image / multi-image fusion edit. Output is 2K / 4K PNG with no watermark, ready for e-commerce and design production.
Image-to-image with a real photo whose output still carries a real identity is rejected by Volcano content review (anti-deepfake) — that is the platform rule. The compliant path is to use synthetic faces from text-to-image or non-real-person assets; if you genuinely need film-grade real-person references, consider the Seedance Cinematic channel and follow applicable likeness/deepfake rules.
