Image model
Seedream 5 Lite API
Seedream 5 Lite is an image model from ByteDance, not available right now. Makes images for artistic, photorealistic and text-focused work, in 7 shapes.
Two ways to run it
Name Seedream 5 Lite, or let Corent choose
You pick
POST /v1/images/generate{ "prompt": "a lighthouse at dusk", "model": "corent-seedream-5-lite"}
Seedream 5 Lite is not available right now, so a request that pins it will fail until it is back. Nothing else is substituted for a pinned model.
The router picks
POST /v1/images/generate{ "prompt": "a lighthouse at dusk", "quality": "best"}
Leave the model out and Corent reads the prompt and picks a live image model for it. Seedream 5 Lite is not among them while it is unavailable. The receipt shows the exact charge.
First call
One key, one request
curl -X POST https://api.corent.tech/v1/images/generate \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $CORENT_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"prompt": "a fox reading a book"}'
This call leaves the model out, so Corent picks a live image model. The response carries the result and a receipt: the model that served you and the exact cost in cents. Full request and response shapes are in the docs.

FAQ
Common questions
Does Seedream 5 Lite have an API?
Seedream 5 Lite is listed on the Corent API on POST /v1/images/generate, but it is not available right now. A request that pins corent-seedream-5-lite will fail until it is back. Leave the model out and Corent picks a live image model instead, on the same key.
How much does Seedream 5 Lite cost on Corent?
You pay the model’s price plus Corent’s fee, and the exact charge comes back on every response. An image on Corent typically costs $0.03 to $0.25, depending on the model. Typical prices for every kind of result are on the pricing page.
Do I have to pick Seedream 5 Lite?
No. Leave the model out and Corent reads each prompt, picks the cheapest live model that does the job well (or the top one with "quality": "best"), and switches models if one fails. Seedream 5 Lite is not available right now, so pinning corent-seedream-5-lite will fail until it is back.
