Overview
- Nano Banana Pro (officially Gemini 3 Pro Image) launches today inside the Gemini app worldwide with a limited free quota that falls back to the original Nano Banana once exhausted, with higher limits for Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers.
- The model promises correctly rendered, legible text in multiple languages, supports 2K and 4K output, allows localized edits, and adds studio‑grade controls for lighting, camera angle, focus, and color grading.
- Users can blend up to 14 input images while maintaining resemblance for up to five people, and can generate context‑rich visuals grounded by Google Search for tasks like infographics and diagrams.
- Provenance tools include embedded SynthID and in‑app verification of whether an image was generated by Google AI, with a visible watermark for free and some paid tiers that Google removes for Ultra; several outlets also report C2PA metadata tags.
- Google is rolling Pro into AI Mode in Search for U.S. Pro/Ultra subscribers, NotebookLM for paid users globally, Flow for Ultra, Workspace apps (Slides and Vids), and developer platforms including the Gemini API, Google AI Studio, Vertex, Antigravity, and Google Ads; TechCrunch reports per‑image pricing of $0.139 for 1080p/2K and $0.24 for 4K.
