Top-down arranged compositions and aesthetic product flat lays — see how these models compare with real AI-generated outputs.
Full comparisonCompare Models (select 4)
Flat lay content lives or dies on composition: clean top-down geometry, believable object spacing, cohesive styling, and the small details (labels, packaging, shadows) that make a scene feel curated rather than cluttered. In Influencer Studio, both Reve and Seedream 4.5 can generate polished flat lays, but they shine in different parts of the workflow.
Below is a practical comparison focused specifically on top-down arranged compositions—product spreads, desk setups, skincare routines, recipe ingredient layouts, and branded scenes where text on items (labels, cards, packaging) matters.
Flat Lay — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"Top-down flat lay shot on a light oak kitchen table by a sunny window: a 20s woman with shoulder-length wavy brown hair, minimal makeup, wearing an oversized gray hoodie, leans into the frame from the top edge and looks up toward the phone camera with a candid “about to eat” expression. Aesthetic overhead arrangement includes an iced matcha, avocado toast on a ceramic plate, a small bowl of berries, earbuds, a scrunchie, lip balm, and an open journal with a pen, neatly balanced on a clean surface. Soft natural daylight, slight phone-camera imperfection, casual everyday UGC vibe like an Instagram story."

Reve Strengths
- Strong aesthetic cohesion for styled flat lays (color palettes, prop harmony, and editorial polish)
- More reliable text rendering on flat lay elements like labels, cards, book covers, and packaging
- Great for creative, brand-forward compositions where typography is part of the design
- Efficient for high-volume flat lay ideation thanks to lower cost per image (8 credits)
Seedream 4.5 Strengths
- Powerful image-to-image editing for refining an existing flat lay (swap props, adjust styling, iterate on layout)
- High-quality output suited to crisp top-down product details and clean surfaces
- Versatile style range for flat lays (minimal, luxury, playful, seasonal, textured, etc.)
- High-resolution friendly results that hold up for tighter crops and multi-platform deliverables
Verdict
If your flat lay relies on readable typography—think product labels, price tags, menu cards, or branded inserts—Reve is often the better first pick. It tends to keep the overall scene looking intentionally styled while maintaining clearer text elements, and it’s also the more credit-efficient option at 8 credits per image.
If your workflow involves iterating on a chosen flat lay (starting from a reference or a first draft and then making targeted changes), Seedream 4.5 stands out for editing and flexible style exploration. It costs more at 16 credits per image, but can pay off when you need controlled revisions and high-quality refinements rather than repeated full regenerations.
