# Seedream-5.0-Pro Image Generation

>  - Asynchronous processing mode, returns a task ID for subsequent queries
- Supports text-to-image, single-image-to-image, and multi-reference image-to-image (up to 10 reference images)
- Supports 1K / 1.5K / 2K resolution tiers, or exact pixels via `size`
- Single-image model: one image per request; PNG / JPEG output
- Generated image links are valid for 72 hours; please save them promptly

## Authorizations

<ParamField header="Authorization" type="string" required>
  All API endpoints require Bearer Token authentication

  Get your API Key:

  Visit the [API Key Management Page](https://apimart.ai/keys) to get your API Key

  Add it to the request header:

  ```
  Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
  ```
</ParamField>

<Info>
  **Single-image model**: `doubao-seedream-5-0-pro` generates only 1 image per request. The following are **rejected** (HTTP 400, no task, no charge):

  * `n > 1`
  * `sequential_image_generation: "auto"` (group generation not supported)
  * more than 10 items in `image_urls`

  The following are **silently ignored**: `tools` (web search), `stream`, `optimize_prompt_options`.
</Info>

## Body

<ParamField body="model" type="string" default="doubao-seedream-5-0-pro" required>
  Image generation model name

  * `doubao-seedream-5-0-pro` (recommended)
  * Also accepted: `doubao-seedream-5.0-pro`
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="prompt" type="string" required>
  Text description for image generation

  > **Tip:** Keep it within 600 English words; overly long descriptions may lose detail.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="resolution" type="string" default="1K">
  Resolution tier (lowercase accepted)

  * `1K` (default)
  * `1.5K` (same price as 1K, better quality — prefer 1.5K unless you have a reason not to)
  * `2K`

  Unsupported tiers such as 3K / 4K return 400.

  <Warning>
    When `size` is an **exact pixel value** (e.g. `2048x1024`), this field is **ignored** and dimensions come only from `size`.
  </Warning>
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="size" type="string" default="auto">
  Aspect ratio, `auto`, or **exact pixels**. Do **not** mix the two styles:

  ### Style ①: tier + aspect ratio

  Used with `resolution`. Supported ratios:

  * `1:1`, `4:3`, `3:4`, `16:9`, `9:16`, `3:2`, `2:3`, `21:9`
  * Also accepts `16x9`-style `x` separators
  * `auto` (default): only the resolution tier is applied; final aspect ratio is chosen from the prompt / references

  Ratios outside the list (e.g. `9:21`) return 400 — **no silent fallback to 1:1**.

  **Tier × ratio → output pixels:**

  | Resolution | 1:1       | 4:3       | 3:4       | 16:9      | 9:16      | 3:2       | 2:3       | 21:9      |
  | ---------- | --------- | --------- | --------- | --------- | --------- | --------- | --------- | --------- |
  | **1K**     | 1024×1024 | 1152×864  | 864×1152  | 1312×736  | 736×1312  | 1248×832  | 832×1248  | 1568×672  |
  | **1.5K**   | 1536×1536 | 1792×1344 | 1344×1792 | 2048×1152 | 1152×2048 | 1872×1248 | 1248×1872 | 2352×1008 |
  | **2K**     | 2048×2048 | 2304×1728 | 1728×2304 | 2560×1440 | 1440×2560 | 2496×1664 | 1664×2496 | 3024×1296 |

  ### Style ②: exact pixels

  When `size` is `widthxheight`, pixels are used as-is and `resolution` does not apply. Accepts `2048X1024` / `2048×1024`.

  | Constraint                    | Range                                                        |
  | ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
  | Total pixels (width × height) | `[921600, 4624220]` (about `1280×720` \~ `2048×2048×1.1025`) |
  | Aspect ratio (width / height) | `[1/16, 16]`                                                 |

  <Warning>
    Limits apply to the **product** of width and height, not each edge alone. Example: `512×512` is too small (400); `2048×1024` is valid.
  </Warning>
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="image_urls" type="array">
  Reference image URL list for single / multi-reference image-to-image, **up to 10**

  Two formats:

  **1. Public URL**

  * `http://` or `https://`
  * Example: `https://example.com/image.jpg`

  **2. Base64 (Data URI)**

  * Format: `data:image/<format>;base64,<data>` — `<format>` must be **lowercase**
  * Example: `data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQEAYABg...`

  **Per-image limits:**

  * Formats: jpeg / png / webp / bmp / tiff / gif / heic / heif
  * Aspect ratio (w/h): `[1/16, 16]`
  * Each edge > 14 px
  * Size ≤ 30 MB
  * Total pixels ≤ `6000×6000` (36,000,000)

  > **Billing:** First reference image free; each additional image has a fixed surcharge.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="output_format" type="string" default="jpeg">
  Output image format

  * `jpeg` (default)
  * `png`

  > **Compatibility:** `response_format` is equivalent to `output_format`; other values are treated as `jpeg`.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="watermark" type="boolean" default="false">
  Whether to add an "AI generated" watermark at the bottom-right

  * `true`: add watermark
  * `false`: no watermark (default)
</ParamField>

## Request Examples

### Text-to-image (tier + ratio)

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "doubao-seedream-5-0-pro",
  "prompt": "Cyberpunk city night scene, neon reflections on wet streets",
  "resolution": "2K",
  "size": "21:9",
  "output_format": "png"
}
```

### Text-to-image (exact pixels)

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "doubao-seedream-5-0-pro",
  "prompt": "Minimal e-commerce hero image, white background, product centered",
  "size": "1600x1600"
}
```

### Multi-reference

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "doubao-seedream-5-0-pro",
  "prompt": "Replace the outfit in image 1 with the outfit in image 2",
  "image_urls": [
    "https://example.com/person.jpg",
    "https://example.com/dress.jpg"
  ],
  "resolution": "2K",
  "size": "auto"
}
```

### Recommended: 1.5K same price, better quality

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "doubao-seedream-5-0-pro",
  "prompt": "A cute orange cat on a windowsill in afternoon sun, cinematic",
  "resolution": "1.5K",
  "size": "16:9"
}
```

## Billing Notes

```
Total = output unit price + reference surcharge × max(0, ref_count − 1)
```

Output is priced by **actual total pixels** (\~2.61M = 2,601,124):

| Condition                                                                                             | Unit price          |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| ≤ 2.61 million pixels (1.5K or lower: `resolution` `1K` / `1.5K` / omit, or exact pixels ≤ 2,601,124) | **\$0.045** / image |
| > 2.61 million pixels (higher than 1.5K: `resolution: "2K"`, or exact pixels > 2,601,124)             | **\$0.09** / image  |

* **1.5K costs the same as 1K** (\$0.045).
* With exact-pixel `size`, billing uses **actual output area**; `resolution` is ignored (e.g. `size: "2048x2048"` → \$0.09).
* First reference image is free; each additional reference has a surcharge.
* Failed tasks are fully refunded.

## Common Errors

| Case                            | Notes                          |
| ------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| Unsupported `resolution` tier   | e.g. 3K / 4K → 400             |
| Ratio outside the list          | e.g. `9:21` → 400              |
| Exact-pixel total out of range  | Must be in `[921600, 4624220]` |
| Exact-pixel aspect out of range | Must be in `[1/16, 16]`        |
| `n > 1` / sequential group mode | Single-image model             |
| More than 10 references         | Rejected                       |

  ⏱️ **Slower generation**: \~90s for 1K, \~160s for 2K (quality first). Poll [Get Task Status](/en/api-reference/tasks/status) every 5–10 seconds; client timeout **5 minutes**. Generated image links are valid for **72 hours**; please save them promptly.
