Seedream 5.0 (Build 260128)
Call the global BytePlus seedream-5-0-260128 route on GPTProto for $0.0298 per image. It points to the same Seedream 5.0 Lite release as Volcengine’s doubao-seedream-5-0-260128; the model string changes with the upstream regional gateway, not with the underlying image model.

Seedream-5-0-260128 API for BytePlus Global Access
Use this route when your documentation, configuration, or logs refer to BytePlus’s shorter global model ID. The sections below identify the endpoint, explain the regional naming difference, and show what must change when moving from a doubao- request.
What Does the seedream-5-0-260128 Model String Mean?
seedream-5-0-260128 is the model ID published in BytePlus ModelArk documentation for Seedream 5.0 Lite. BytePlus also recognizes seedream-5-0-lite-260128 as an alias. The 260128 suffix identifies the January 28, 2026 release; it does not describe image size, quality, or a separate pricing tier.
On GPTProto, the shorter ID has its own text-to-image route because model pages and request paths are generated from the exact model string. Use the ID displayed on this page exactly as written. Adding doubao- inside the URL does not select a higher or lower quality mode—it changes the route to the Volcengine-named version.

The prefix is the only model-name distinction documented for these regional environments. It should not be used to claim different generation quality, reasoning capability, or output style. Upstream base URLs, accounts, authentication, and regional availability can differ when calling BytePlus or Volcengine directly; through GPTProto, follow the route and bearer-key format shown on the selected model page.

The submit call returns a prediction identifier, and the result route is used to retrieve the completed image. Copy the live request from the API tab before deployment, since the displayed schema—not a provider example using another model ID—defines the accepted GPTProto fields.
Migrating from doubao-seedream-5-0-260128
- Change the model slug in the submit URL. Replace doubao-seedream-5-0-260128 with seedream-5-0-260128.
- Keep authentication tied to GPTProto. Continue using the GPTProto bearer key; do not insert a BytePlus or Volcengine key into the GPTProto request.
- Validate the live payload schema. Do not assume every regional provider parameter is exposed by both GPTProto routes. Compare the JSON or API tabs before reusing an existing payload.
- Run a regression set. Test the same prompts, output sizes, error handling, and result polling before changing the route in a customer-facing application.
Do not substitute a 260628 identifier during migration. That suffix belongs to Seedream 5.0 Pro, which is a separate model and price point rather than another alias for this route.

FAQs
What is the difference between seedream-5-0-260128 and doubao-seedream-5-0-260128?
The shorter ID is used in BytePlus documentation for the global service, while the doubao- ID is used by Volcengine in mainland China. Both identify the Seedream 5.0 Lite 260128 release family.
What is the seedream-5-0-260128 API endpoint on GPTProto?
The page currently shows POST https://gptproto.com/api/v3/bytedance/seedream-5-0-260128/text-to-image. Use the API tab to confirm the live endpoint and request fields before deployment.
How do I get a seedream-5-0-260128 API key?
Create one GPTProto API key from the dashboard and use it as a bearer token. The same GPTProto balance can be used for this route and other supported models.
Is there a limit to how many images seedream-5-0-260128/text-to-image can generate?
There are no hard limits as long as you have an active balance; you can simply recharge amount to continue your high-volume work with seedream-5-0-260128/text-to-image.
Is the BytePlus seedream-5-0-260128 API cheaper on GPTProto?
The page displays $0.0298 per generation, compared with BytePlus’s listed $0.035 rate for seedream-5-0-lite-260128. That is about 15% lower at the displayed prices. Recheck both rates before publishing a permanent saving claim.
Can I swap the two model strings without changing anything else?
Change the model slug in the GPTProto submit URL and compare both pages’ live payload schemas. Do not assume that every parameter or provider-specific option is interchangeable without testing.
Where can I find Seedream 5.0 Lite prompts and use cases?
Use the [main Seedream 5.0 Lite API page](https://gptproto.com/model/bytedance/doubao-seedream-5-0-260128). This page is intentionally limited to the BytePlus model ID, endpoint, access, and migration intent.
