Nano Banana 2 — Google's Gemini image model

Nano Banana 2 is Google's image generation and editing model, built on Gemini 3.1 Flash Image and announced on 26 February 2026. Google highlights world knowledge grounded in real-time web search, precise text rendering and translation, and subject consistency for up to 5 characters and 14 objects. On Kenerate it comes in a standard and a Fast version, both with up to 14 reference images.

Yes, in effect. Nano Banana is Google's name for its Gemini image models, and Nano Banana 2 is built on Gemini 3.1 Flash Image. So it is the same Google model family behind Gemini image generation. On Kenerate it runs in the browser next to 80+ other image models, and Google's content filter still applies, so some prompts may be refused.

It is credit-based, and the cost of each image is shown before you generate. Nano Banana 2 Fast uses fewer credits than the standard version, so it suits drafts. Credits come in one-time packs that never expire, with no subscription required, and current packs are on /pricing. Nano Banana 2 is not on the free plan, but any credit pack unlocks both versions.

Up to 14 on Kenerate, on both Nano Banana 2 and Nano Banana 2 Fast. You can combine people, products and places in one edit, as in our example that placed a woman in a red gown into a masquerade ballroom from a second image. Say in the prompt which image gives what, such as the person from image 1 and the room from image 2.

Not on Kenerate yet. Google's model supports 512 px up to 4K, but on Kenerate it currently returns square 1K images whatever size you pick, while size support is being fixed. For larger sizes, upscale the result. For other shapes and 4K output today, Seedream 5.0 Lite is the better pick, or crop the square image to the ratio you need.

Yes, it is one of its strengths. In our tests it produced clean text in posters and infographics on the first try. Put the exact words in quotes and say where they go in the image. Long layouts can slip, though: our infographic repeated one step title, so check every word before you publish.
