Introducing ByteDance Seedream Portrait: Professional-Grade AI Portrait Enhancement Now on WaveSpeedAI

The art of portrait photography has entered a new era. WaveSpeedAI is thrilled to announce the availability of ByteDance Seedream Portrait, a specialized AI model that transforms ordinary portraits into stunning, professional-quality images with intelligent enhancement technology that preserves natural beauty while elevating every detail.

Whether you’re a professional photographer, content creator, or business professional seeking polished headshots, Seedream Portrait delivers studio-grade results in seconds—without the studio.

What is ByteDance Seedream Portrait?

ByteDance Seedream Portrait is a state-of-the-art image effects model built on ByteDance’s acclaimed Seedream foundation. While the Seedream family has earned recognition as a leader in AI image generation—achieving top rankings on major text-to-image leaderboards—the Portrait variant focuses specifically on what matters most: making people look their absolute best.

This specialized model intelligently refines facial features, balances skin tones, and optimizes lighting while maintaining the authentic characteristics that make each portrait unique. The result is enhancement that feels natural, not artificial—professional polish without the “AI look” that plagues lesser solutions.

ByteDance’s portrait technology draws from their extensive research in facial analysis and enhancement, including innovations from systems like SeedEdit 3.0, which excels at preserving image subjects, backgrounds, and details during editing tasks such as portrait retouching and lighting adjustments.

Use Cases

Professional Headshots

Transform casual photos into polished business portraits suitable for LinkedIn profiles, company websites, and professional directories. Perfect lighting and refined features convey competence and approachability without requiring a professional photo session.

Portrait Photography Enhancement

Photographers can streamline their post-processing workflow by applying intelligent enhancements that would typically require extensive manual retouching. Batch process event photos or fine-tune individual portraits for client delivery.

E-Commerce and Personal Branding

Entrepreneurs, influencers, and personal brands can maintain a consistent, polished visual presence across all platforms. Quality imagery builds trust and credibility with audiences and potential clients.
