SeedEdit 3.0 | [image-to-image]
ByteDance's SeedEdit 3.0 delivers precise instruction-following image editing at $0.03 per image. Trading raw speed for accuracy, this model excels at preserving original image content while executing complex natural language edits, particularly on real-world photographs where context preservation matters. Built for developers who need reliable edits without manual masking or multi-step workflows.
Use Cases: Product photo refinement | Real estate staging | Creative concept iteration
Performance
At $0.03 per inference, SeedEdit 3.0 positions itself competitively for production workflows requiring content-aware editing without manual intervention.

What You Get With Instruction-Based Editing
SeedEdit 3.0 uses natural language processing to interpret complex editing instructions without requiring mask generation or region selection. Unlike traditional image-to-image models that rely on strength parameters and hope for the best, this architecture understands semantic relationships between prompt instructions and image content.
What this means for you:
-
Content preservation by default: The model actively protects unmentioned image regions, edit "add a winter background" without accidentally altering the subject's clothing or facial features
-
Complex multi-step edits in single passes: Execute compound instructions like "make it photorealistic, add snow, and give her a hat" without chaining multiple API calls
-
Real-world photo optimization: Specifically trained on realistic images rather than synthetic data, making it reliable for product photography, portraits, and architectural shots
-
Controllable edit intensity: Guidance scale parameter (0-1.0) lets you dial between subtle refinements and dramatic transformations
