How to split an AI image into editable layers

How do I separate an AI-generated image into layers?

Use Seedream 5 Pro Layerize. It takes a finished image and splits it into separate layers, such as subject, background and text, that you can move, edit or animate on their own. You can then finish the layers in Photopea, which is built into OTOY Studio.

Credits are OTOY Studio's currency: 1 credit = €0.01. Prices are list prices before plan discounts (paid plans take 10% to 25% off every run). Every model is on every plan, including Free.

How to do it in OTOY Studio

  1. Connect your image, generated or uploaded, to a Seedream 5 Pro Layerize node.
  2. Run it. Each layer comes out as its own image.
  3. Open the layers in Photopea to retouch, or send single layers to video and 3D nodes.
