How It Works

From words to images in three steps

1

Describe your image

Write a prompt describing what you want — a product on a white background, a sunset over mountains, a fashion editorial. Be as detailed as you like.

2

Choose your resolution

Select 1K, 2K, or 4K resolution. Higher resolutions give you more detail for print and large-format use. The AI generates your image in seconds.

3

Download & use anywhere

Your image is ready instantly. Download as JPEG or PNG and use it for e-commerce, ads, social media, or as a starting image for video generation.

Capabilities

Powered by Seedream 4.0 & 5.0

BytePlus's latest text-to-image models, available through the same ARK API that powers Seedance 2.0 video generation.

Multiple model versions

Access Seedream 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, and 5.0 Pro — each tuned for different quality and speed trade-offs. Choose the model that fits your needs.

Up to 4K resolution

Generate images at 1K (standard), 2K (HD), or 4K (ultra HD). Higher resolutions deliver more detail for print, large displays, and professional use.

Reference image support

Seedream accepts up to 14 reference images to guide style, composition, and subject consistency across multiple generations. Great for brand-aligned content.

Negative prompts

Specify what you don't want in your image — remove unwanted elements, avoid specific styles, or exclude certain colors for precise creative control.

JPEG & PNG output

Both standard JPEG and lossless PNG formats are supported. Choose PNG when you need transparency or maximum quality for further editing.

Credit-based — no subscription

Pay only for what you generate. 1 credit for 1K, 2 credits for 2K, 3 credits for 4K. One-time credit packs, no recurring fees, use credits anytime.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is text-to-image AI and how does PicTV's work?+
Text-to-image AI generates images from written descriptions. You type a prompt describing what you want to see, and Seedream — BytePlus's state-of-the-art image generation model — creates it. PicTV supports Seedream 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, and 5.0 Pro, giving you access to the latest generation quality across resolutions from 1K to 4K.
What resolution and formats can I generate?+
Seedream supports three resolution tiers: 1K (standard), 2K (high definition), and 4K (ultra high definition). Output formats are JPEG and PNG. All images are watermark-free and suitable for commercial use.
How much does it cost to generate an image?+
Text-to-image generation uses PicTV's credit system. 1K resolution costs 1 credit, 2K costs 2 credits, and 4K costs 3 credits. Seedream 5.0 Pro costs 2 credits for 1K and 3 credits for 2K. Credits are purchased in one-time packs — no subscription, no recurring fees. Visit our pricing page for current pack options.
Can I use the generated images commercially?+
Yes. Images you generate on PicTV are yours to use. You retain full commercial rights to the images you create — use them for product listings, advertisements, social media, print materials, or any commercial purpose. PicTV does not claim ownership of your generated content.
How does text-to-image compare to PicTV's image-to-video?+
PicTV offers two complementary AI capabilities. Text-to-Image (powered by Seedream) creates still images from text prompts — ideal for product photos, concept art, and marketing visuals. Image-to-Video (powered by Seedance 2.0) animates a single image into a cinematic video — ideal for product showcases, social media reels, and advertising. You can even use a generated image as the starting point for a video: create your perfect product shot with text-to-image, then bring it to life with image-to-video.
How do I get started?+
Go to the generator page, select the 'Generate with AI' tab, type a description of the image you want, choose your resolution, and click Generate. New accounts receive free credits to try both text-to-image and image-to-video. No credit card required to start.
