What Bytedance Image is for
Bytedance Image from ByteDance is a text-to-image model. You describe the frame and it returns a still image in about 10 seconds, billed at Credits. This page groups 2 modes (Seedream 4.0 Edit and Seedream 4.0 Text to Image) so you are not hunting separate URLs for the same family.
Bytedance Image is cheap enough that a generation usually fits the free Knowlify plan's credits. A typical run is about 10 seconds.
