Introducing ByteDance Seedream V4 Sequential: Multi-Image Generation with Unmatched Consistency

The AI image generation landscape just got a powerful new contender. ByteDance’s Seedream V4 Sequential is now available on WaveSpeedAI, bringing enterprise-grade sequential image generation capabilities to developers and creative professionals. This isn’t just another text-to-image model—it’s a purpose-built solution for creating cohesive visual series that maintain perfect consistency across every output.

What is Seedream V4 Sequential?

Seedream V4 Sequential is ByteDance’s state-of-the-art image model specifically designed for generating multiple images in a single pipeline while maintaining cross-image consistency. Built on a 12-billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, it represents a fundamental shift in how AI handles batch image generation.

Unlike traditional approaches that require generating images one at a time and hoping for visual coherence, Seedream V4 Sequential produces up to 9 matching images simultaneously. Each output maintains consistent identity, color palette, style, and layout—making it the first model truly designed for series-based creative workflows.

The model recently topped benchmark leaderboards for text-to-image generation, surpassing competitors like Google’s Imagen 4 and Nano Banana in prompt adherence and aesthetics according to Artificial Analysis rankings.

Getting Started with WaveSpeedAI

Using Seedream V4 Sequential on WaveSpeedAI is straightforward:

Set your parameters: Define the image size and set max_images to the number of outputs you want (up to 9)
Craft your prompt: Include the number of images directly in your prompt text. For example: “Generate a series of 4 images of a luxury watch in different settings; keep consistent metallic finish and brand aesthetic; vary backgrounds from office desk to outdoor adventure to formal dinner to casual beach”
Execute via API: Call the REST endpoint and receive your consistent image series

Prompt Tips:

Always declare the number of images twice—once in max_images parameter and once in your prompt text
Use descriptive style locks: specify palette, lighting, composition elements to maintain across the series
For editing: structure as “Replace [A] with [B]; keep [lighting/style]; preserve [logo/identity]”

Recommended Resolutions:

1:1 aspect ratio: 1448 × 1448 or 1024 × 1024
16:9 aspect ratio: 1936 × 1089 or 1920 × 1088
4:3 aspect ratio: 1672 × 1254 or 1664 × 1216

Pricing: Just $0.027 per image, with total cost calculated as max_images × $0.027. This makes batch generation remarkably affordable for large-scale projects.
