Nano Banana is the nickname the internet gave Google’s image generation model — the one behind the viral 3D figurine trend, the hyper-consistent character edits, and some of the most photorealistic AI images ever produced. CreateGlow gives you Nano Banana online with no API key, no waitlist and no Google Cloud setup: type a description, press Generate, and get your image in seconds. New accounts receive free credits, and a Nano Banana image costs just 3 credits, so you can experiment freely before spending anything.

The full Nano Banana family is here, not just the original. Nano Banana 2 is Google’s newest generation — one model that handles both creation and editing, with sharper text rendering, better instruction following and support for up to 14 reference images. Nano Banana 2 Lite is the fastest, cheapest way to draft ideas at 3 credits per image. When your prompt needs something different, the same input box drives GPT Image 2 (unbeatable at rendering readable text and precise layouts), ByteDance’s Seedream 4.5 and Seedream 5.0 Pro (the aesthetic powerhouses behind countless stylized social posts), Flux 2 Pro from Black Forest Labs, and xAI’s Grok Imagine.

Why does running models side by side matter? Because no single image model wins every prompt. Nano Banana produces the most convincing skin, lighting and camera realism. GPT Image 2 is the only one you should trust with a poster headline or a UI mockup. Seedream leans painterly and dramatic — ideal for fantasy art, album covers and anime-adjacent styles. Flux 2 gives you obsessive control over composition. On CreateGlow you write the prompt once, switch the model from a dropdown, and compare results in the same session instead of juggling five subscriptions.

Every generation is priced transparently in credits (roughly one cent each): Nano Banana and Nano Banana 2 Lite cost 3 credits, Grok Imagine 4, Nano Banana 2 and Flux 2 Pro 5, Seedream 5.0 Lite 6, Seedream 4.5 and 5.0 Pro 7, Flux 2 Flex 14. Failed generations are refunded automatically, results are yours to use commercially, and finished images can be sent straight into Image to Video to become motion.

How it works

  1. 1

    Open the generator above and pick a model — Nano Banana is the best default for photorealism; switch to GPT Image 2 if your image contains text.

  2. 2

    Describe the image: subject first, then style, lighting, mood and composition. “A ceramic teapot shaped like a snail, studio product shot, soft rim lighting, pastel background” beats “nice teapot”.

  3. 3

    Choose an aspect ratio — 1:1 for avatars and product shots, 16:9 for covers and thumbnails, 9:16 for Stories and wallpapers.

  4. 4

    Hit Generate. Most images land in five to twenty seconds depending on the model.

  5. 5

    Not quite right? Iterate on the wording, or run the exact same prompt through a different model — same credits, different eye.

  6. 6

    Download in full resolution, or continue the workflow: send the image to Image to Image for edits, or to Image to Video to animate it.

Frequently asked questions

What is Nano Banana AI?

Nano Banana is the community name for Google’s image generation model family (it first appeared as a mysterious model topping blind-vote leaderboards, and the banana codename stuck). It became famous for photorealism, character consistency across edits, and the viral collectible-figurine effect. CreateGlow runs the official model through a production API — same weights, no waitlist.

Can I use Nano Banana for free?

Yes. Signup credits are enough for dozens of Nano Banana images (3 credits each, about three cents). No credit card is required to start, and failed generations are automatically refunded.

What is the difference between Nano Banana and Nano Banana 2?

Nano Banana 2 is the newer generation: one model covers both text-to-image and editing, text inside images renders far more reliably, instructions are followed more literally, and it accepts up to 14 reference images for consistent characters and products. The original Nano Banana remains slightly cheaper and still excellent for straightforward photorealistic shots.

Do I need a Google account or API key?

No. CreateGlow handles the model access — you just need a CreateGlow account. There is nothing to configure, no Google Cloud project and no key management.

Which model is best for text inside images?

GPT Image 2, by a wide margin. If your prompt includes a headline, a logo word, a menu or any readable text, use GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana 2; classic diffusion models tend to scramble letters.

Which model should I pick for anime or illustration?

Seedream 4.5 and Seedream 5.0 Pro are the stylization champions — dramatic lighting, painterly color and strong composition. Flux 2 Flex is the pick when you need precise control or typography inside an illustration.

What resolution do the images come in?

Models output 1K–2K by default (Seedream 4.5 basic renders at 2K). Aspect ratios from 1:1 to 21:9 are supported depending on the model, and downloads are always the full generated file.

Can I use the generated images commercially?

Yes — images you generate are yours to use, including for commercial projects. You are responsible for the prompts you write and for respecting third-party rights (real people, trademarks).

How is this different from using the Gemini app?

Three things: model choice (seven image models side by side, not one), workflow (results flow into image editing and image-to-video in one click), and predictable credit pricing with automatic refunds on failure.

Does CreateGlow store my images?

Generated images appear in your Assets library so you can re-download them. Provider-hosted files expire after roughly 14 days, so download anything you want to keep long term.
