Tech giant Google (GOOGL) just launched Nano Banana Pro, an AI-powered image editing and generation tool, just days after releasing its Gemini 3 model. The tool is built on Gemini 3 Pro and can create infographics, slide decks, and maintain consistent characters across multiple images. Josh Woodward, a Google Labs and Gemini executive, said that users have already tested it by turning things like LinkedIn resumes and code into visuals. He noted that one of its standout features is helping people visualize things that aren’t typically seen as visual content.

Notably, the original version of Nano Banana gained attention earlier this year for turning user and pet photos into realistic 3D figurines. This quickly added 13 million new users to the Gemini app. Nano Banana Pro builds on that popularity and is now available in the Gemini app with limited free use. It’s also available in Google’s writing tool, NotebookLM, as well as tools for developers, businesses, and advertisers. In addition, paid Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers can use Nano Banana in Google Search’s AI Mode, and it will soon roll out to Ultra users in Google’s filmmaking tool, Flow.
It’s worth noting that Google is expanding its AI tools as it competes with OpenAI (PC:OPAIQ), which recently upgraded its GPT-5 model to sound more natural and be easier to use. While ChatGPT is the top free app on Apple’s (AAPL) App Store, Google’s Gemini app is in second place, with over 650 million monthly users. Moreover, its AI-powered search feature, AI Overviews, now serves 2 billion monthly users. Woodward said that the demand for Google’s AI tools is growing fast, with more people subscribing to increase their usage limits.
