TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, has introduced its latest image generation artificial intelligence tool, Seedream 4.0, with strong image editing capabilities, the tech company Seed Department, responsible to administer its AI capabilities, said on Tuesday.

Seedream 4.0 is expected to directly compete with Google DeepMind’s Nano Banana, also known as Gemini 2.5 Flash Image. ByteDance states that Seedream 4.0 outperformed Gemini 2.5 Flash Image in its internal evaluation benchmark Magicbench for image generation and editing, with better performance in prompt adherence, alignment, and aesthetics, according to a report by South China Morning Post.

Features of Seedream 4.0

Seedream 4.0 provides a range of features such as text-to-image generation, image editing, reference-based generation and multi-image creation. Here are the key features of Seedream 4.0 —

1. Image editing: Seedream 4.0 allows image editing such as adding, deleting, replacing, and modifying using text prompts. It is advisable to use clear and concise language to accurately specify the elements to edit and the specific changes needed.

2. Use of reference images: Seedream 4.0 claims to extract key details from reference images, including character design, artistic style, and product features, which enables tasks such as character creation, style transfer, and product design.
