Good to know
What it is best for
The cheap way to a 2K frame. It draws from a description, and its photo variant edits or combines up to three photos, so it covers both jobs of Seedream 5 Lite for a little less. The trade is control: there is no aspect ratio chip, the size is picked for you. When the shape matters, take Seedream 5 Lite; when one face must not change, Seedream 5 Pro.
Choose the variant by what you have: text alone, or up to three photos plus an instruction. With several photos, say what each one brings: the face from the first, the jacket from the second, the street from the third. Then name what must stay as it is. PNG for text and flat graphics, jpeg for photos. At this price it pays to run three versions and keep the best one.
Process
Three steps to a finished image
- Open the bot@StarGenAI_Bot, and the Mini App from there. Nothing to download.
- Describe a shot or send a photoYour own prompt, or a ready preset in one tap. A photo gets reworked rather than redrawn.
- Take the image back to the chatIt lands in the same chat you started from, and it turns into a sticker pack.

Nano Banana 2
Google's flagship image model. It draws from a description and reworks whatever you send it, and text inside the frame comes out readable, which most models still cannot manage.
from 9 Stars
GPT Image 2
OpenAI's image model reads a long prompt closely and keeps things where you asked for them. Good when the frame needs legible text or a scene built exactly to description.
from 2 Stars
Nano Banana 2.1
Google's newest Nano Banana. It draws from a description or reworks up to three photos you send, and it costs less here than Nano Banana 2.
from 5 Stars
FLUX.1 Schnell
The quick draft model: you type a prompt and it draws it. Take it when you want to run through a dozen ideas rather than polish one.
from 1 Star
Nano Banana Pro
The bigger Nano Banana: 2K output, clean text inside the frame, and edits that keep the detail. It works from a photo or from a prompt alone.
from 20 Stars
Seedream 5 Pro
ByteDance's photo editing: it swaps clothes, backgrounds and style without redrawing the person. It will not start without a photo, text alone is not enough.
from 10 Stars
