Today Google introduces Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3.1 Flash Image), its most powerful image generation and editing model yet. What does this mean for you if you create images, build creative apps, or manage products that need visuals at scale? A lot: more fidelity, more speed, and more control without blowing your budget.
What's new in Nano Banana 2
Nano Banana 2 combines the improved Flash architecture with the breadth of knowledge from the Gemini model to produce high-fidelity images and edit images with greater precision. It's designed for large-scale deployments and offers an attractive price-performance ratio.
A paid API key is required to use the model in Google AI Studio, and it's also available via Gemini API for enterprise deployment in Vertex AI and ready to integrate with tools like Google Antigravity and Firebase.
Standout capabilities
-
Improved world knowledge. The model can rely on reference images found on the web to generate more detailed and believable scenes. Want a view from a window inspired by a real city and its weather? That's where “visual grounding” comes in.
