About this model

## Overview Nano Banana 2 Lite, from Google, is the flat-rate member of the family: fast image generation and multi-image composition at 1K, charged the same whatever parameters you choose. If you want a predictable cost per image and do not need higher resolutions, this is the straightforward option. It generates from a text prompt and can combine or edit up to 14 reference images. ## What it does well - **A flat price.** No parameter changes what an image costs, so budgeting is simple. - **Multi-image composition.** Combine up to 14 images into one scene or edit them with a prompt. - **Reasoning depth.** A thinking level setting trades speed against care on complex prompts. - **Nine aspect ratios,** from square to 16:9 and 9:16. - **A system prompt** for standing instructions, up to 2,000 characters. ## Prompting tips Describe the scene as a photographer would, and when composing from several images, say what each contributes. Use the system prompt for a consistent look across a batch. Because the cost is the same per image, it is a sensible model for generating many variations and choosing the best. ## Limits to know Output is 1K only; use Nano Banana 2 or Nano Banana Pro for higher resolutions. Prompts can be up to 4,000 characters. Safety tolerance runs from 1, the strictest, to 6. The price is fixed per image, and the Run button shows it before you spend. ## FAQ ### Does the price change with my settings? No. It is a flat rate per generation regardless of parameters. ### When should I use Lite instead of Nano Banana 2? When 1K is enough and you want a fixed, predictable cost. Choose Nano Banana 2 when you need higher resolutions, extreme aspect ratios or web search.
