## Why Seedream 5 Lite

The Lite route exposes prompt, up-to-ten references, 2K or 3K, eight ratios, seed, and output count. Compare each returned image with the exact submitted setup.

### Text-led and image-led modes

Text mode starts from a required prompt. Image mode requires reference media plus a prompt, so choose the mode from the inputs available for the task.

### Up to ten reference images

Image mode accepts one to ten files. References condition the run but do not lock identity, products, text, background, or composition.

### JPEG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB

Each reference must match one of the three declared formats and stay within the 10 MB file limit.

### 2K and 3K output

The resolution control offers 2K and 3K. Higher requested output size does not guarantee detail, factual accuracy, readable text, or identity preservation.

### Eight aspect ratios and seed

Choose 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16, 2:3, 3:2, or 21:9. Seed helps comparison but does not guarantee identical results across changes.

### Paid access with configured estimates

The catalogue requires paid-model access; metadata lists 4 or 8 credits and estimates about 30 seconds. Confirm the live debit before submitting.

## Who uses Seedream 5 Lite's 2K–3K form, and for what?

Creative teams prioritizing 2K/3K comparisons can use these candidate concept, product, campaign, illustration, and reference-led workflows; every returned result still needs review.

### Rapid concept comparisons

Hold the brief constant while testing prompt or seed changes, recording which returned image best fits the intended direction.

### Product mockups

Use product references for studio or lifestyle concepts and reject results that alter packaging, labels, proportions, colors, or regulated claims.

### Marketing and social drafts

Compare square, vertical, landscape, and wide layouts while checking text, logos, crop, and disclosure requirements.

### Illustration and concept art

Test characters, environments, and visual treatments while checking composition, anatomy, identity, and artifacts.

### Large-output comparisons

Compare 2K with 3K using the same setup and record delivered dimensions, artifacts, text quality, and debit.

### Reference-led changes

Use one clear requested change per run and compare the result for unintended changes to subject, style, background, and framing.

### What is Seedream 5 Lite?

Seedream 5 Lite is a selectable paid-access image workflow in this app with text-led and image-led modes. The live form defines its reference, resolution, ratio, seed, and output-count controls.

### Which input modes are available?

Text mode uses a required prompt. Image mode requires one or more references plus a prompt. Both expose ratio, resolution, seed, and output count.

### How many reference images can I upload?

Image mode accepts one to ten JPEG, PNG or WebP files up to 10 MB each. References guide rather than lock the result.

### Which resolutions are available?

The live form offers 2K and 3K. Inspect delivered dimensions, compression, fine detail, and text after each run.

### Which aspect ratios can I choose?

The form offers 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16, 2:3, 3:2, and 21:9.

### How much does a run cost, and what access is required?

The catalogue marks the model as paid access and metadata lists 4 or 8 credits. Confirm the live estimate before submitting.

### What do seed and output count control?

Seed supports controlled comparisons, while output count requests multiple results. Neither guarantees consistency, and count can change the debit.

### Can paid-plan output be used commercially?

Paid plans include this app's commercial license. You remain responsible for prompt and reference rights, applicable terms, and final use.

### What should I review before using an image?

Review prompt adherence, identity, anatomy, text, product details, background, crop, delivered dimensions, and unintended source changes.

### What limits should I check before using Seedream 5 Lite?

Generated output from Seedream 5 Lite can contain visual, audio, or factual errors. Review each result before publishing, and upload only material you are authorized to use. Where the form accepts a reference image, supported files are JPEG, PNG, WebP up to 10 MB each.

### What happens to the files I upload to Seedream 5 Lite?

An upload is stored against your own account, not pooled with other people's. Deleting the account removes it: the control is in Settings under Security, the request is confirmed by email, and the erasure removes the stored objects it owns. How long anything else is kept, and which processors handle it, is stated in the privacy policy.
