Overview

What is the Seedance image generator?

Seedance itself is ByteDance’s video model family; the images come from its sibling, Seedream, built by the same ByteDance Seed team. When people search for a Seedance image generator, Seedream is the model they are actually after, and this page runs its flagship: Seedream 5.0 Pro.

Inside the Seedance image generator, Seedream 5.0 Pro creates and edits images from text and visual references. Give it a prompt on its own, or up to 10 reference images for guided edits and composition. Each render returns one image at 1K or 2K, as JPEG or PNG, and it handles readable text inside the image better than most models.

A 1K image costs 3 credits and new accounts start with 5, so the Seedance image generator is free to try the moment you sign up. No ByteDance account, no API key, nothing to install.

Photo editing with references

Stack up to 10 reference images in the Seedance image generator to restyle a product, swap a background, or keep a face consistent.
