How to write a Seedream 5 Pro prompt

  1. 1

    Write a photographic brief

    Seedream responds to camera language — lens, light, and material detail — and renders quoted display text well.

  2. 2

    Add references for consistency

    Upload up to 10 images to hold a character, product, or style steady across generations.

  3. 3

    Pick resolution and format

    Stay on 1K for iteration; switch to 2K — at double the price — for finals, across nine aspect ratios up to 21:9.

  4. 4

    Review and refine

    Check typography and fine detail, then adjust one constraint at a time.

  • The 2K tier costs double the 1K default — Made quotes the exact price before you generate.
  • It is the premium tier; draft in Seedream 5 Lite and upgrade winners here.

Iteration is cheap here: Seedream 5 Pro costs from 0.4 credits / image, so rewriting a prompt and rerunning it is a normal part of the workflow, not a budget decision. See the full Seedream 5 Pro pricing breakdown.
