Nano Banana 2

Google's flagship image model — our go-to for overall quality and reliable text-in-image rendering.

Strengths

  • Best overall quality and prompt adherence of the three backing models
  • Strong text rendering, fewer artifact fingers / tails vs prior gen
  • Mature image-to-image editing (closest thing to ControlNet without ComfyUI)

Limitations

  • Per-image cost is higher than Seedream Lite
  • Available via Gemini API; requires Google account for direct access
  • Artistic / stylized output is less expressive than Seedream 5.0
