Seedream 5 Flash Edit: AI Image Editor Online
Bottom line
Seedream 5 Flash Edit: fast reference-image edits with up to 10 photos for 2 credits. Open the Image Edit tool, select Seedream 5 Flash Edit, upload your image, and the exact credit cost appears before the edit runs.
Seedream 5 Flash Edit is the image-to-image side of ByteDance's fastest Seedream 5 tier. Upload up to ten reference images, describe the change in plain language (up to 5,000 characters), and it returns a 1K or 2K result that keeps the parts you didn't mention. On VdoBloom it is 2 credits per edit, and since 29 September 2026 it is also the first model the Auto — Smart Edit chain tries, with WAN 2.7 as the fallback.
What it costs on VdoBloom
2 credits per edit, the same at Basic (1K) and High (2K). A failed edit is refunded automatically, like every model on the platform.
Prompting tips
