SeedEdit v3 — bytedance/seededit-v3
SeedEdit v3 is a prompt-based image editing model for fast, high-quality transformations. Provide a source image and a short instruction, and the model performs targeted edits—such as changing hair, clothing, colors, backgrounds, or adding/removing elements—while keeping the overall composition and identity stable.
Key capabilities
- Prompt-driven image editing from a single input image
- Strong preservation of subject identity and scene structure for everyday edits
- Works well for localized edits (hair, face details, clothing) and global adjustments (color/lighting)
- Efficient for rapid iteration with controllable randomness via seed
Use cases
- Portrait edits: hair color/style changes, light makeup tweaks, accessory edits
- E-commerce variants: recolor outfits/products, background cleanup, consistent product shots
- Marketing creatives: quick visual iterations (color mood, props, text-free adjustments)
- Photo cleanup: remove small distractions, fix minor inconsistencies, improve overall clarity
- Content localization: adapt visual details (e.g., wardrobe color/style) while keeping the same subject

Prompting guide
For clean edits, be explicit about what must stay the same:
Template:
Keep [identity/pose/background]. Change [target]. Maintain [lighting/style realism].
Example prompts
- Keep the face and pose unchanged. Change the hair to short, curly, rainbow-colored hair. Keep natural lighting and realistic texture.
- Keep the subject identity and background unchanged. Change the jacket color to black and add subtle fabric texture.
- Remove the object in the background and keep the subject sharp and unchanged.
