Seedream 4.0 – ByteDance’s newly launched image creation model.

What is Seedream 4.0?

Seedream 4.0 is ByteDance’s newly launched image creation model, positioned as a professional “generation-and-editing integrated” tool. It comes with five key highlights: precise instruction-based editing, strong feature preservation, deep intent understanding, multi-image input/output, and ultra-HD rendering. Covering a wide range of creative scenarios, it makes the journey from inspiration to final output more efficient and controllable. Users can describe their needs in simple everyday language, and the model can accurately perform add, delete, modify, replace, and reference edits. It is suitable for commercial design, artistic creation, and social entertainment. For example, it can faithfully preserve character traits across different creative formats, retain maximum details of the original image, and avoid the “AI greasy look” after editing, thus enabling lossless editing.
