Affordable Seedream 4.5 API
Access ByteDance's Seedream 4.5 on Velokey — a unified text-to-image, image-to-image, and editing model with up to 4K output, precise text-guided editing, multi-image reference fusion, and fast generation, through one endpoint and below-list pricing.
Meet Seedream 4.5 and its API access
Seedream 4.5 is a ByteDance Seed image model in the Seedream 4.x line — the iteration between Seedream 4.0 and 5.0 — that unifies text-to-image, image-to-image, and image editing in a single architecture. It produces high-resolution output up to 4K (2K-4K range) with an adaptive aspect ratio that adjusts the canvas to semantic needs or custom dimensions, and supports precise text-guided editing that can add, delete, modify, or replace elements while keeping the rest of the image intact. Velokey provides an affordable, easy-to-integrate Seedream 4.5 API: a unified endpoint, one API key, and below-list pricing for content production, commerce visuals, and creative automation.
Precise text-guided editing
Add, delete, modify, or replace elements with simple text instructions while keeping image integrity — change one part of a scene cleanly without disturbing the rest, ideal for product retouching and iterative design.

Multi-image reference & feature fusion
Extract key information from reference images and fuse features across many references for coherent, multi-image output — fit for storyboards, series, and consistent character or product sets.
View Documentation →
Advanced text rendering up to 4K
Renders crisp text, formulas, tables, chemical structures, and statistical charts, and outputs ultra-high-definition images up to 4K with an adaptive aspect ratio that fits the content.
View Documentation →
Unified, fast generation & editing
A single architecture handles text-to-image, image-to-image, and editing with native visual-signal control (sketch, depth, mask) and no extra ControlNet, on a distilled DiT optimized for low-step, low-latency sampling.
