Google, Thursday, announced the launch of Nano Banana Pro, its most powerful image generation and editing model yet, built on the advanced reasoning of Gemini 3 Pro.

This new model is designed to help everyone, from casual creators to global enterprises, turn their ideas into high-fidelity visuals with unprecedented control.

Just as the original Nano Banana model empowered everyday creativity, Nano Banana Pro represents a leap forward, blending state-of-the-art AI reasoning with creative precision.

“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,” said Naina Raisinghani, product manager at Google DeepMind.

The launch of Nano Banana Pro is especially exciting for creators and students in Nigeria, where the interest in AI tools is surging.

Search interest in ‘AI for studying,’ for example, has jumped by over 200% in the last year, demonstrating a strong desire to use AI for academic growth. Furthermore, ‘AI for graphic design’ is one of the top trending AI search queries, underscoring the demand for professional creative tools.

Nano Banana Pro is uniquely positioned to meet this demand, offering the perfect solution for Nigerian users who are learning new skills, creating content, and looking for AI that can deliver both factual accuracy and high-quality visual results.

Creativity Meets Intelligence

Nano Banana Pro brings four major enhancements to the creation process:

Factual Visuals and Infographics: Thanks to its foundation in Gemini 3, Nano Banana Pro connects to Google Search’s vast knowledge base.

This means it doesn’t just generate beautiful images; it creates context-rich, helpful content. Users can now generate accurate infographics, diagrams, or visualize real-time information like recipes and sports data.

Generate Legible Text in Images: A common challenge in AI imaging is garbled text, but Nano Banana Pro solves this.

It is the best model for creating images with correctly rendered and legible text directly in the image, supporting multiple languages. This unlocks new possibilities for designers creating posters, mockups, and campaigns that require precise typography.

Blend Multiple Elements for Consistent Scenes: For complex scenes or branding, Nano Banana Pro allows users to blend more elements than ever before, using up to 14 reference images to maintain consistent style, branding, and character likeness across entire compositions.

This bridges the gap between concept and production-ready assets.

Advanced Photo Editing and Control: For precise control, the model offers advanced localized editing features. Users can fine-tune images by adjusting camera angles, focus, and scene lighting (like changing day to night), with final outputs available in high-resolution 2K and 4K for any platform.

Committed to Transparency

Google is also expanding its commitment to transparency with new tools for verification. Google believes it is critical to know when an image is AI-generated:

• New Verification Tool: Users can now upload any image into the Gemini app and simply ask if it was generated by Google AI, thanks to our embedded, imperceptible SynthID digital watermark.

• Watermark Policy Update: To support professional creators, Google is removing the visible watermark (the Gemini sparkle) from images generated by Google AI Ultra tier subscribers in the Gemini app, while still keeping the invisible SynthID watermark active.

Availability of Nano Banana Pro

Nano Banana Pro is rolling out globally already across Google’s ecosystem. Consumers can access it in the Gemini app by selecting the ‘Thinking’ model, with Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers receiving higher usage quotas.

For businesses, it is available in Google Ads, Google Slides, and Vids, and accessible to developers through the Gemini API and Vertex AI for scaled creation.
