Only a few months after launching the Nano Banana model, Google is already releasing an improved version, which is the Nano Banana Pro. Using Gemini 3 Pro as its foundation, Nano Banana Pro is described as a “state-of-the-art” model that draws on Gemini’s strong reasoning abilities and broad real-world knowledge to generate visuals with improved accuracy and creativity.
While the original Nano Banana gave casual users playful tools for photo restoration and mini-figurine generation, Nano Banana Pro sets its sights higher. It’s built to help anyone turn nearly any idea or design into a finished visual.
So what’s new?
Google points to three areas where Nano Banana Pro clearly surpasses current tools.
1. Smarter, Context-Rich Visuals
Nano Banana Pro isn’t focused solely on making visuals look good, its real aim is usefulness. With the improved reasoning abilities of Gemini 3, it can produce accurate educational explainers, convert data into meaningful infographics, and turn handwritten notes into clean, readable diagrams. Perhaps most notably, the model can pull in real-time information through Google Search.
2. Flawless Text Generation Within Images
AI image tools have always struggled with readable text, but Google says Nano Banana Pro finally nails it. They’re calling it their best model yet for the job, able to drop in anything from quick taglines to full paragraphs that actually look clean and correct.
This feature also supports multiple languages, enabled by Gemini’s multilingual reasoning. It allows users to build mockups for international campaigns, translate text within posters, or share visual creations across language barriers with minimal effort.
3. High-Fidelity Visuals and Studio-Quality Control
The model is designed for strong visual consistency. It can combine up to 14 images and still maintain accurate resemblance for up to five individuals. This makes it useful for creating photorealistic product mockups, generating 3D visualizations from architectural plans, and keeping branding aligned across outputs.
Google is giving users far more control over their creative output. With the new tools, you can refine specific parts of an image, shift camera angles, adjust focus, apply color grading, and even change the lighting, turning daytime scenes into night or adding a bokeh effect. Support for 2K and 4K resolutions and multiple aspect ratios means these visuals are suitable for everything from social posts to professional print.
How to Get Nano Banana Pro
Google is bringing Nano Banana Pro to the rest of its ecosystem, letting users decide what they need in the moment, either the original Nano Banana for quick touch-ups or the Pro version for richer, more involved creations.
For consumers and students, the feature is launching worldwide in the Gemini app. Free-tier users will have a limited number of Pro uses before the system switches back to the original model, while Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers will receive larger quotas. It’s also coming to AI Mode in Search for U.S. users and to NotebookLM for subscribers globally.
For professionals, Google is upgrading its image generation system in Google Ads to Nano Banana Pro, giving advertisers far more powerful creative and editing tools. The same capabilities begin rolling out today in Google Slides and Vids for Workspace customers.
For developers and enterprise teams, the update is now accessible through the Gemini API, Google AI Studio, and Google Antigravity. Companies can also begin using it in Vertex AI to start building right away.
For creatives, the update is rolling out to Google AI Ultra subscribers in Flow, giving filmmakers and marketers more precise control over their visual storytelling.
