Google's newest image model, released October 6, 2026. Here is what changed from Nano Banana 2, and how to start making images (and videos from them) today.
Coming soon to this site. Google has released Nano Banana 2.1, but the API providers we run on haven't opened it yet. Until they do, you can make images with Nano Banana 2 below.
Last checked: October 7, 2026.
Google says visual quality and realism improve at all three output sizes, 1K, 2K and 4K.
Better prompt adherence: more of what you describe ends up in the picture, in the place you asked for.
Multi-turn character consistency: a person or product stays recognizable as you keep editing in follow-up messages.
Improved text rendering and infographic layouts, for posters, labels and diagrams.
Wide and tall panoramas (up to 8:1 and 1:8) at 2K and 4K, without the tiling artifacts earlier versions could show.

Google's newest image generation and editing model, released on October 6, 2026 as gemini-nano-banana-2.1. It follows Nano Banana 2 and keeps its speed, with better image quality, prompt following, character consistency and text rendering, up to 4K output and up to 14 reference images.
Not yet. The API providers we run on have not opened it so far. Leave your email above and we'll send one message the day it's live here. Nano Banana 2 is available now.
As announced by Google: sharper, more realistic images, closer prompt following, characters that stay consistent across edits, cleaner text and infographics, mask-based editing, and wide panoramas (1:4, 4:1, 1:8, 8:1) at 2K and 4K without tiling artifacts.
Google is rolling it out in the Gemini app, AI Mode in Google Search (the banana icon under the search box in the Google app), Google AI Studio and Flow. Developers can call it through the Gemini API.
We'll price it from our provider's rate once it opens, like every other model. Nano Banana 2 costs 4 credits per image here, and failed images cost nothing.
Yes. Every image you make here has a one-click button that opens it in Image to Video, where you pick a video model and animate it.
No. Nano Banana and Gemini are Google products. This site is independent: it reaches image and video models through an API and bills per image or clip in credits.
