Fast model-specific generation flow
Nano Banana Lite combines your request and one reference image into one image per turn, with automatic prompt refinement and follow-up editing.
Parameter guide
The page keeps the useful choices in one conversation: reference images and supported sizes where available. Each turn creates one image, and your request is refined automatically.
Forces the image request to the Nano Banana Lite model path instead of the default combiner routing.
Runs on the Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image engine and automatically uses the fastest available route, so you never manage providers.
Use one uploaded photo as visual context for a product, portrait, layout, or restyle request.
Describe the target image, retained subject details, camera style, lighting, background, and usage.
Create one image, then ask for a follow-up revision to refine composition, style, or details.
Your request is automatically prepared for the model while preserving your intent. There is no optimization switch.
Prompt examples

Neon platform portrait
Create a cinematic editorial portrait of a fictional adult industrial designer in a cobalt raincoat on a neon tram platform after rain, confident expression, reflective ground, layered background commuters as soft silhouettes, 50mm documentary realism, rich color separation, no celebrity likeness, no logos.

Library atrium concept

FAQ
Nano Banana Lite is a lightweight AI image model based on Google's Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image. This page gives it a dedicated editor so you can generate and edit images from one reference at low cost.
This model path accepts one reference image. The editor limits uploads to one image so requests match the model limit.
Not on this page. The editor hides image size controls because this model does not currently expose stable image size values, so the option is kept off to avoid unreliable results.
Each turn creates one image. Standard quality uses 1 credit, and HD quality uses 2 credits.
Lite is the lightweight, lower-cost route for fast drafts and variations. It takes one reference image and hides image-size controls to stay fast and simple. When you need multi-image composition, larger sizes, or the highest fidelity, use a heavier image model instead.
Use a clear reference and describe the subject, scene, lighting, composition, and intended use. Then ask for focused follow-up revisions to improve the result.
