Full comparisonCompare Models (select 4)
For stock photography, “good” isn’t just pretty—it needs to be versatile, commercially usable in look and composition, and consistent across variations (poses, lighting, backgrounds, and crops). In Influencer Studio, Reve and Seedream 4.5 both generate high-quality images, but they differ in how they approach realism, iteration, and post-generation control.
This comparison focuses on stock-ready results: clean, licensable-looking visuals, repeatable series creation, accurate text-in-image when needed (e.g., product labels or signage), and workflow efficiency relative to cost per image.
Stock Photography — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"A diverse woman in her mid-20s with shoulder-length curly dark hair, wearing a casual oversized hoodie and high-waisted leggings, holds her phone at arm’s length for a selfie video and looks slightly past the camera with a relaxed half-smile. She’s in a bright kitchen making iced coffee, one hand stirring a glass while the counter has a laptop and a few groceries, clean stock-photo composition with natural window light and soft shadows. Candid, everyday UGC vibe like an Instagram Story frame—sharp but not editorial, realistic skin texture and minimal makeup."

Reve Strengths
- Strong aesthetic polish that can elevate stock-style lifestyle and editorial images with minimal prompting
- Accurate text rendering for stock scenarios involving signage, packaging mockups, menus, or storefront details
- Cost-efficient at 8 credits per image for generating many options and selecting the most stock-appropriate frames
- Great for “conceptual stock” (simple metaphors, clean compositions, copy space) where visual clarity matters
Seedream 4.5 Strengths
- Image-to-image editing enables stock workflow staples: refining expressions, adjusting backgrounds, changing wardrobe colors, and iterating on composition
- High-resolution output suited to common stock needs like cropping for multiple aspect ratios and maintaining detail
- Versatile styles help cover multiple stock libraries: lifestyle, business, travel, food, product-on-white, and editorial-leaning looks
- Better for building consistent series (same subject, setting, and lighting) through iterative edits rather than full re-generation
Verdict
If your priority is producing lots of attractive, stock-friendly options quickly and economically—especially when text in the scene must be legible—Reve is the stronger value at 8 credits per image. It’s a good fit for high-volume exploration and clean conceptual stock with dependable typography.
If your stock workflow depends on controlled revisions (keeping what works while fixing what doesn’t), Seedream 4.5 is the better choice despite the higher 16-credit cost. Its editing strength and high-resolution output make it more reliable for polishing images into consistent, licensable-looking sets across a campaign.
