Seedream 5.0 model family

Use Seedream 5.0 when layout control and reference editing matter

SciFig exposes two Seedream 5.0 variants. Pro focuses on flagship image quality and controlled composition; Lite trades some polish for cheaper, larger-output drafting. Check the live capability table before committing a figure to one of them.

One family, two working modes

Seedream 5.0 Pro is preselected below as the higher-quality option for figures headed toward submission. Switch to Seedream 5.0 Lite when you want many cheap variations, larger raw output, or more reference images in a single edit pass.

Where this family fits well

  • Multi-panel graphical abstracts where panel balance and reading order matter
  • Mechanism and pathway drafts that must keep a stable composition across revisions
  • Reference-guided editing when several verified sketches or prior drafts should steer the result
  • Journal-cover directions plus high-volume exploration on a limited figure budget

What to plan around

  • Seedream produces a visual draft, not evidence — invented labels, arrows, and structures are common.
  • Both variants use a fixed aspect-ratio list with no auto option, so odd journal trim sizes need cropping.
  • Pro and Lite expose different output sizes; Lite does not offer the smallest 1K option at all.
  • Chinese and English text render better than in many models, but every rendered character still needs proofreading.

Provenance: SciFig reads these limits from its shared model registry. The public panel may accept fewer reference images, so use the active generator controls as the current product limit.

Tasks to test across the family

These examples show useful comparison tasks, not certified model benchmarks. Run the same prompt through Pro and Lite to compare layout control, label legibility, and cost per usable draft.

Structured scientific diagram of a metabolic pathway with a legend

Ordered pathway with a legend

Test whether reaction order, branch alignment, and a separate legend stay stable between Pro and Lite.

Single-panel metabolic pathway figure, reactions arranged left to right in numbered order, one clearly separated branch, inputs and outputs distinguished by shape, compact legend in the lower right, thin arrows, white background, restrained blue and teal palette, short English labels only; author will verify every label

Mechanism figure with an inset

Check spatial hierarchy between the main structure and a magnified binding-site inset.

Mechanism figure of a small molecule binding a membrane receptor, main view on the left, circular magnified inset of the binding pocket on the right, thin leader lines connecting inset to source region, three concise labels, white background, soft violet and grey palette, publication illustration style
