Seedream 5.5

Higgsfield added Seedream 5.5, ByteDance's new image model and the successor to Seedream 5.0. The main addition is transparent backgrounds at generation. Pick transparent in the Background setting and you get a PNG with nothing behind the subject.

ByteDance says that compared with 5.0, edits stack one after another while the parts you didn't touch stay as they were. It also says small and multilingual text stays legible on labels, packaging, signs, and posters. Output is 1K, 1.5K, or 2K, with nine aspect ratios from 1:1 to 21:9.

To try it, open Image, choose Seedream 5.5, set Background and Resolution, and generate. It's currently available in all regions except the US.
