Seedream 5.5 and ChatCut
Is Seedream 5.5 available in ChatCut?
Not yet. ByteDance released Seedream 5.5 on November 9, 2026, and it is not in ChatCut's image model menu today. This page will be updated the day it is.
What is new in Seedream 5.5?
ByteDance lists two main changes: edits across many rounds that leave the untouched parts of the image as they were, and native transparent output. It also says generation is faster and small text is sharper.
Which image models can I use in ChatCut today?
GPT Image 2.6, GPT Image 2.5, GPT Image 2, Nano Banana 2.1, Nano Banana 2 and Nano Banana Pro, on an active Pro plan.
Can I make transparent images in ChatCut now?
Yes. GPT Image 2.6 outputs transparent PNGs. Ask for a transparent background in the prompt, then place the result over your footage.
How much will Seedream 5.5 cost in ChatCut?
That is not set yet. ChatCut image generation runs on credits, charged per image, and the price will be listed here when the model is added.
Can I use a generated image in a video?
Yes. Images land in My Assets. Use one as the first frame for Seedance or Kling, or place it on the timeline and keep editing.
