Nano Banana — AI Image Generator
Turn text and photos into images in seconds, powered by Google Gemini 2.5 Flash Image.
Nano Banana is the AI image generator that turns a text prompt or a reference photo into a finished image in seconds. Built on Google’s Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model, Nano Banana handles text-to-image, image-to-image editing, and consistent character generation without any design skills — just describe what you want and generate.
What is Nano Banana?
Nano Banana is the original model in the Nano Banana family and a fast, approachable way to get started with AI image generation. It runs on Google’s Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, the model people first nicknamed “Nano Banana,” and produces sharp 1K images from a short prompt.
You can describe a scene in plain language, upload up to four reference images to guide style or subject, and iterate instantly. Because it’s the lightweight tier, Nano Banana is ideal for quick concepts, social posts, and everyday edits — then upgrade to Nano Banana 2 or Nano Banana Pro when you need higher resolution.
