How AI text to image works
A text to image generator turns a written description into a picture. Dola AI Video uses ByteDance's Seedream models, which handle realistic photos, illustrations and designed graphics.
Good prompts describe the subject, the setting, the lighting, the composition and the style. Mention the purpose too, such as 'product photo on a white background' or 'poster for a summer festival'.
Seedream 5.0 Pro gives the best quality, Seedream 5.0 Flash is the cheapest for drafts, and Seedream 5.0 Lite and 4.5 sit in between.
