Google Introduces Nano Banana Pro

Just a few months ago Google released Nano Banana, our Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model. From restoring old photos to generating mini figurines, Nano Banana was a big step in image editing that empowered casual creators to express their creativity. Check out whats new in the release below

Today, we’re introducing Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image), our new state-of-the art image generation and editing model. Built on Gemini 3 Pro, Nano Banana Pro uses Gemini’s state-of-the-art reasoning and real-world knowledge to visualize information better than ever before. 

How Nano Banana Pro helps you bring any idea or design to life 

Nano Banana Pro can help you visualize any idea and design anything – from prototypes, to representing data as infographics, to turning handwritten notes into diagrams. 

With Nano Banana Pro, now you can:

Generate more accurate, context-rich visuals based on enhanced reasoning, world knowledge and real-time information 

With Gemini 3’s advanced reasoning, Nano Banana Pro doesn’t just create beautiful images, it also helps you create more helpful content. You can get accurate educational explainers to learn more about a new subject, like context-rich infographics and diagrams based on the content you provide or facts from the real world. Nano Banana Pro can also connect to Google Search’s vast knowledge base to help you create a quick snapshot for a recipe or visualize real-time information like weather or sports. 

Generate better visuals with more accurate, legible text directly in the image in multiple languages 

Nano Banana Pro is the best model for creating images with correctly rendered and legible text directly in the image, whether you’re looking for a short tagline, or a long paragraph. Gemini 3 is great at understanding depth and nuance, which unlocks a world of possibilities with image editing and generation – especially with text. Now you can create more detailed text in mockups or posters with a wider variety of textures, fonts and calligraphy. With Gemini’s enhanced multilingual reasoning, you can generate text in multiple languages, or localize and translate your content so you can scale internationally and/or share content more easily with friends and family.

 

Create high-fidelity visuals with upgraded creative capabilities 

  • Consistency by design: With Nano Banana Pro, you can blend more elements than ever before, using up to 14 images and maintaining the consistency and resemblance of up to 5 people. Whether turning sketches into products or blueprints into photorealistic 3D structures, you can now bridge the gap between concept and creation. Apply your desired visual look and feel to your mockups with ease, ensuring your branding remains seamless and consistent across every touchpoint.

  • Studio-quality creative controls: With Nano Banana Pro’s new capabilities we are putting advanced creative controls directly into your hands. Select, refine antransform any part of an image with improved localized editing. Adjust camera

angles, change the focus and apply sophisticated color grading, or even transform scene lighting (e.g. changing day to night or creating a bokeh effect). Your creations are ready for any platform, from social media to print, thanks to a range of available aspect ratios and available 2K and 4K resolution.

How to identify AI-generated images in the Gemini app 

We believe it’s critical to know when an image is AI-generated. This is why media generated by Google’s tools are embedded with our imperceptible SynthID digital watermark. 

Today, we are putting a powerful verification tool directly in consumers’ hands: you can now upload an image into the Gemini app and simply ask if it was generated by Google AI, thanks to SynthID technology. We are starting with images, but will expand to audio and video soon. 

In addition to SynthID, we will maintain a visible watermark (the Gemini sparkle) on images generated by free and Google AI Pro tier users, to make images even more easy to detect as Google AI-generated.

 Recognizing the need for a clean visual canvas for professional work, we will remove the visible watermark from images generated by Google AI Ultra subscribers.
