What image to image can do
Image to image uses your pictures as references instead of starting from text alone. The AI keeps the subject, such as a product, a person or a building, and changes what you describe: the background, the lighting, the style or the setting.
You can upload several reference images in one generation. Combine a product with a scene, a person with an outfit, or a sketch with a style example, and Seedream brings them together.
Every Seedream model on Dola AI Video can edit images. Seedream 5.0 Pro gives the most detail, while Seedream 4.5 and 5.0 Lite are good at combining many references.

Frequently asked questions
Can I change only the background?
Yes. Describe the new background and say that the subject should stay the same, for example: keep the product unchanged and place it on a beach at sunset.
How many reference images can I upload?
Several per generation. The limit depends on the model and is shown in the upload area of the generator.
Which model is best for editing?
Seedream 5.0 Pro gives the most detail. Seedream 4.5 and 5.0 Lite handle many references well, and 5.0 Flash is the cheapest for quick tests.
Will the result look exactly like my original?
The main subject stays recognizable, but the image is redrawn, so small details can change. Use a sharp reference and say clearly what must not change.
Can I edit photos of people?
Only photos you have the right to use. Do not upload images of other people without their consent. See our Terms of Service for the rules.
Are the edited images watermark-free?
Yes. We do not add a watermark, and you can use the images in commercial projects, subject to our Terms of Service and the terms of the model provider.
