From eWeek: Google on Tuesday released Nano Banana 2 Lite, the newest addition to its Gemini image generation lineup.
The model, officially named Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image, can turn a text prompt into an image in about four seconds, roughly five times faster than the standard Nano Banana model. It also costs just $0.034 per 1,000 images, making it one of the cheapest options on the market.
Alongside the image model, Google widened access to Gemini Omni Flash, a video generation and editing tool first shown off at Google I/O earlier this year. Omni Flash is now available to developers through Google AI Studio and the Gemini API for the first time, priced at $0.10 per second of video, matching the cost of Google's Veo 3.1 Fast model.
