ByteDance · ~2 min
from $0.077per picture

ByteDance's top image model: accurate text, up to 2K, up to 10 photos.

Seedream Pro is ByteDance's flagship image model. 1K, 1.5K and 2K pictures from a description or your photos (up to 10). Strong text on images and character consistency.

One model, seedream-pro: no photos = generate from scratch; with photos = edit or references.

Prompt only — the model creates the picture from scratch.

Compatibility

Requests in the OpenAI format and other popular API formats work too:

  • model: seedream-pro, seedream-5-0-pro, seedream-5.0-pro, doubao-seedream-5-0-pro.
  • size instead of aspect_ratio: a ratio (16:9) or exact pixels (1600x1200) — we use the closest supported ratio.
  • Photos can go in image_urls, image_input or input_urls. Parameters may also be sent at the top level of the body, without the input wrapper.
  • resolution in any case (1k, 2K); jpg and jpeg are the same. n must be 1 (one image per request).
  • nsfw_check, official_fallback, google_search are accepted but do not change the result.

Result

Same as any task: call recordInfo or receive a callback. Image links are in resultJson (kept for 24 hours).

Upload your photos via files/upload or pass any public https links.

Error handling

API responses are JSON {"code", "msg", "data"}; errors also have a string error field (type). On /api/v1/* the HTTP status matches body code.

Example response bodies

400

{
  "code": 400,
  "msg": "input.duration: must be between 4 and 30, or \"auto\" / -1",
  "data": null,
  "error": "invalid_request_error"
}

401

{
  "code": 401,
  "msg": "Authentication failed. Please check your API key",
  "data": null,
  "error": "authentication_error"
}

402

{
  "code": 402,
  "msg": "Insufficient balance. Please top up and try again. Available: $0.01, required: $0.015. Top up at https://ai.aimixmedia.site/cabinet/billing",
  "data": {
    "balance": "0.0100",
    "required": "0.0150",
    "currency": "USD",
    "topUpUrl": "https://mixmedia.tech/cabinet/billing"
  },
  "error": "payment_required"
}

429

{
  "code": 429,
  "msg": "Rate limit exceeded: 10 createTask/upload requests per 10 s per key. Retry after 8s",
  "data": null,
  "error": "rate_limit_error"
}

500

{
  "code": 500,
  "msg": "Internal server error",
  "data": null,
  "error": "server_error"
}

Task errors (recordInfo)

If the task was created and then failed: state: "fail" (alias status: "failed"), failCode / failMsg, and error: { code, message, type }. Money is refunded (refunded: true).

failCodeerror.typeMeaning
400nsfw_content_detected / invalid_request_errorModeration / safety rules
422invalid_request_errorThe model rejected the parameters (e.g. a photo could not be downloaded)
501server_errorThe model could not generate (failMsg)
504timeout_errorTimed out — retry
500 / 503server_errorService temporarily unavailable

Rate limits

WhatLimit
createTask and upload20 per 10 s per key
recordInfo / list / balance100 per 10 s per key

Over the limit — HTTP 429 and Retry-After.
