01 / What's new

Better than every Nano Banana before it.

Nano Banana 2.1 improves on the previous models across the board. Here is what changes for your images, and for the videos you make from them.

Better visual design

Cleaner layouts, typography and composition. Posters, thumbnails and product cards that look designed, not generated.

Mask-based editing

Select an area, describe the change, and only that part is regenerated. Fix a detail without losing the shot you love.

Subject consistency

The same person, mascot or product in every image. Build a whole campaign or story without the face or packaging drifting.

More natural images

Real-looking skin, light and materials. Less plastic, less "AI look", which also makes the animated version more believable.

02 / Image to video

From Nano Banana 2.1 still to finished clip.

Google AI Studio gives you the image. Nano Banana Video takes it all the way to a video you can post, with commercial rights on paid plans.

Generate the still

Describe your shot. Nano Banana 2.1 renders it in your format, with the natural light and design quality of the new model.

Refine with a mask

Paint over what is not right, a logo, a colour, a background, and fix it in one sentence. Lock your subject for the next shots.

Animate it

Send the image to Seedance 2.5 or MiniMax H3, add camera motion, and export in 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9 up to 1080p.

Nano Banana 2.1 FAQ

Something else? Contact us.

What is Nano Banana 2.1?
Nano Banana 2.1 is the latest version of the Nano Banana image generation model. It outperforms the previous Nano Banana models across the board, with better visual design, mask-based editing, stronger subject consistency and more natural-looking images.
What is new compared to Nano Banana 2?
Four things stand out: cleaner visual design (layouts, typography and composition), mask-based editing so you can change only the area you select, subject consistency so the same person or product stays identical across images, and more natural, less "AI-looking" results.
Can I turn Nano Banana 2.1 images into video?
Yes. That is what Nano Banana Video is built for. Generate or edit a still with Nano Banana 2.1, then animate it with Seedance 2.5 or MiniMax H3 in the same studio, in 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, up to 1080p.
How does mask-based editing work?
Paint over the part of the image you want to change, describe the change in one sentence ("make the bag red leather", "add rain on the window"), and Nano Banana 2.1 regenerates only that area. The rest of the image stays untouched, which is ideal before animating a shot.
Why does subject consistency matter for video?
A video series, an ad campaign or a story needs the same character or product in every shot. With Nano Banana 2.1 you keep the subject identical across stills, then animate each one, so your clips cut together without the face or the packaging changing.
Is Nano Banana Video made by Google?
No. Nano Banana Video is an independent studio by Lanne Tech. It gives you Nano Banana 2.1 for images plus leading video models (Seedance 2.5, MiniMax H3, Gemini Omni) in one subscription, with commercial rights on paid plans.
Is there a free plan?
No. Nano Banana 2.1 and the video models are included in every plan, from €19.99/mo (Basic), cancel anytime.
