Google's Nano Banana 2.1, model gemini-nano-banana-2.1, is now available and is said to outperform the previous Pro model at about a quarter of the price, $0.034 per image versus $0.134.
The quoted post lists improved instruction following, better in-image text rendering, grounding with Google Image Search, and up to 5 characters of consistency plus 14 reference images.
It is available in Google AI Studio, the Gemini API, Google Cloud, the Gemini app, and Flow. The author's own post is a playful reaction praising its design ability and shows a generated vegan basketball food truck poster.
