The Power of Structure
WIIFM: Master structured prompting to reduce token waste and get predictable, brand-aligned outputs from Seedream 5.
Experiment
How does structured prompting change output? Select a basic prompt to see the "Seedream Protocol" version.
Select a prompt above to begin...
Structured prompts acts as design blueprints for the model.
Step 2 • Foundation
Optimized Architecture
Model Strengths
Seedream 5 is custom-tuned for developers building real products. It prioritizes layout stability and visual hierarchy.
- Multi-step reasoning for complex scenes
- Superior text rendering in mockups
- Highly responsive to seed images
Seedream balances creative freedom with production constraints.
Step 3 • Protocol
Subject → Setting → Style → Technical
Prompt Layering
The "Golden Template" follows a strict hierarchy. Select a vertical to see how it layers.

Step 4 • Consistency
Seed Images & Edits
Maintaining Brand Identity
When you pass a seed image, your prompt should focus exclusively on the Delta (the changes).
keep the same hero layout and headphones, change the background to a neon city at night, add subtle reflections
The model uses the seed for layout and the text for variation.
Step 5 • Guardrails
Negative Prompting
Reactive vs. Preemptive
Only use negative prompts to fix specific artifacts observed in early generations. Avoid "bloat" lists.

Step 6 • Implementation
API Integration
Pseudocode Pattern
In production, treat prompts as data structures, not strings.
const input = {
prompt: buildProtocolPrompt(config),
negative_prompt: config.negatives.join(', '),
image: config.seedUrl
};

Key Takeaways
- Follow Hierarchy: Subject → Setting → Style → Technical
- Pass seeds for brand consistency; prompt only the delta
- Use surgical negative prompts only when artifacts appear
- Integrate prompts as structured objects in your stack
