APIXO has added Seedream 5.5, an image model from ByteDance, to its AI creation platform, making image generation, reference-based editing, and layer separation available through its browser workspace and API. The move gives creators another way to develop product visuals, campaign layouts, and other creative projects, according to the company.
Seedream 5.5 allows creators to start with a reference image, explore different settings, and revise individual details as a visual direction develops. BytePlus describes the model as improving consistency across repeated edits, alongside improvements in realism and the handling of small text. APIXO's implementation supports transparent PNG output for subjects and decorative elements that can be placed into new layouts. Layer separation offers another starting point: an existing composition. It returns individual assets for further work in a design editor, while optional text recognition provides information for subsequent copy changes.
The creative opportunity extends beyond the first image: refining details, adapting layouts, and reusing visual elements as a project develops. However, these are possible uses rather than guaranteed outcomes. Creators should review subject details, transparency edges, and generated text before using an image in published materials, the company noted.
Creators can explore the model and its available modes on APIXO. Developers can use APIXO's task API to integrate supported generation, editing, and layer separation capabilities into their applications. As part of APIXO's Black Friday promotion, Seedream 5.5 text-to-image API pricing currently starts at $0.014 per image. Charges vary with output size, reference inputs, and returned layers.
The addition expands APIXO's image tools alongside its video creation workspace, giving creators another source of visual material for subsequent design and video projects. APIXO is an AI video creation platform for creators, marketers, and teams. It helps users turn text and images into videos for storytelling, product presentations, and social content. The platform brings together multiple video models, complemented by image and audio creation tools, with API access for developers. APIXO is operated by ECHOFLUX LLC, registered in Wyoming, United States. Learn more about APIXO.
