Seedream 4.5 is ’s latest high-resolution image generation model, upgraded through large-scale training and architecture refinement. It is especially strong at typography, poster composition, and branded visuals, with clear text rendering and strong prompt adherence.
Enter your prompt Describe the subject, composition, text elements (e.g., title / subtitle / tagline), and overall style.
Set size (width & height)
Choose pixel dimensions for your image. The model supports custom sizes as long as
the total pixel count is within 2560×1440 ≤ width × height ≤ 8192×8192.
Run the job Click Run to generate the image, then refine your prompt or size for the next iteration.
Below are example resolutions that work well in practice and stay within the supported pixel range:
| Aspect Ratio | Suggested Resolution (W × H) |
|---|---|
| 1:1 | 2048 × 2048 |
| 4:3 | 2688 × 2016 |
| 3:2 | 2688 × 1792 |
| 16:9 | 2560 × 1440 |
| Square 4K | 8192 × 8192 |
You can freely adjust width and height as long as they respect the total pixel range.
Use Seedream 4.5 together with other models, depending on your priorities:
google/nano-banana-pro/text-to-image – Google’s Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3.0 Pro Image family) is ideal for ultra-low cost, multi-image generation, great for large batches and exploratory runs.
Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo (available as Z-Image on WaveSpeedAI) – Tongyi-MAI’s 6B, 8-step turbo model focuses on maximum speed and throughput while keeping photorealism and bilingual (EN/ZH) support.
wavespeed-ai/flux-2-pro/text-to-image – FLUX.2 [pro] is a flagship, general-purpose model for cinematic quality and complex scenes, great when you need broad stylistic range beyond typography-heavy posters.
/seedream-v4 – The previous Seedream generation, strong at high-resolution illustration and diverse styles; Seedream 4.5 builds on it with noticeably better text rendering and layout control for branding work.
Rule of thumb:
Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/bytedance/seedream-v4.5 with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id. Start polling the result endpoint around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. On completed, read output values from data.outputs.

time.sleep(2)Seedream v4.5 is a ByteDance model for image generation, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Seedream 4.5 is a next-gen text-to-image model optimized for typography—crisper text rendering, stronger prompt adherence, and up to 4K output for posters and brand visuals. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no cold starts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.
POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID. Poll the result endpoint starting around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. The playground generates production-oriented Python, JavaScript, and cURL examples with timeouts, transient-error handling, and safe GET retries. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/bytedance/bytedance-seedream-v4.5.
Seedream v4.5 starts at $0.040 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.
Key inputs: `prompt`, `size`, `enable_base64_output`, `enable_sync_mode`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/bytedance/bytedance-seedream-v4.5.
Median end-to-end generation time on WaveSpeedAI is around 14 seconds per request, based on recent successful runs. Queue time varies with global demand; live status is visible in the prediction record.
Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (ByteDance). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
