Google on Thursday introduced Nano Banana Pro, an upgraded image-generation model built on its Gemini 3 Pro foundation and designed to handle more complex visual tasks than the version released earlier this year. 

While the 2024 Nano Banana model focused on quick edits and lightweight creative use, the new Pro version is aimed at diagrams, prototypes, educational explainers and multilingual posters that require both visual accuracy and factual grounding.

Google DeepMind said the system brings stronger reasoning, better real-world context and the ability to draw on live information when generating images. 

The company is positioning the model as a tool for producing visuals that are not only aesthetically refined but also structurally correct and contextually coherent, a shift from the more free-form imagery typical of earlier models.

The release places particular emphasis on improving text rendering, a weakness across most image generators. 

Nano Banana Pro is intended to produce clearer, more consistent text across languages and handle a wider range of fonts, calligraphy styles and longer passages without distortion.

Google is rolling the model into consumer, professional and developer products simultaneously. It will appear in the Gemini app worldwide under the Create Images option, with free users receiving limited access before the app switches back to the original version. 

Professional tools such as Google Ads, Slides, Vids and Search’s AI Mode in the US will use the Pro model as part of their image-generation features. 

Developers can access it through the Gemini API, Google AI Studio and Vertex AI, and the company said the model will also come to Flow, its AI-assisted filmmaking tool, for subscribers on the Ultra tier.

Alongside the new model, Google is expanding its SynthID watermarking system. Users can upload an image to the Gemini app and ask whether it was generated by Google AI. 

Visible watermarks will continue for free and Pro-tier users, while Ultra subscribers and developer-side deployments will be able to generate clean outputs, though Google said the underlying invisible markers will remain embedded to support provenance checks.
