1<br />23**Nano Banana 2 Lite** is designed as the efficiency specialist of the image4generation family, offering ultra-low latency and cost-effective image5generation and editing. By targeting a sub-2 second latency and significantly6reduced TPU compute costs, this model enables high-volume interactive developer7use cases and real-time consumer applications.89**Key capabilities:**1011- **Sub-2 second end-to-end latency**12- **Interleaved generation and editing** with native support for Text -\> Text + Image(s) and Image + Text -\> Text + Image(s).13- **Optimized for lower resolutions** of 1K (1024x1024px).14- Supports a discrete set of **14 aspect ratios** including standard formats.15- **Fast multi-turn local edits** (swapping colors, sticker creation, background adjustments).16- Maintains high character alignment matching original Nano Banana standards.17- New `1:1`, `3:2`, `2:3`, `3:4`, `4:3`, `4:5`, `5:4`, `9:16`, `16:9`, `21:9` aspect ratios.18- Supported `image_size` values: `1024px` (1K). *(Note: 2K and 4K are unsupported).*19- **SynthID watermarking (Always On) + C2PA**.2021[Try in Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com?model=gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image)2223## Documentation2425Visit the [Image generation](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/image-generation) page for full26coverage of features and capabilities.2728## gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image2930| Property | Description |31|---|---|32| Model code | `gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image` |33| Supported data types | **Inputs** Text, Image, Video, and PDF **Output** Image and Text |34| Token limits^[\[\*\]](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/tokens)^ | **Input token limit** 65,536 **Output token limit** 4,096 |35| Capabilities | **[Audio generation](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/speech-generation)** Not supported **[Caching](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/caching)** Not supported **[Code execution](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/code-execution)** Not supported **[File search](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/file-search)** Not supported **[Function calling](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/function-calling)** Not supported **[Grounding with Google Maps](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/maps-grounding)** Not supported **[Image generation](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/image-generation)** Supported **[Live API](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/live-api)** Not supported **[Search grounding](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/google-search)** Not supported **[Structured outputs](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/structured-output)** Not supported **[Thinking](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/thinking)** Supported (minimal and high) **[URL context](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/url-context)** Not supported |36| Consumption options | **[Batch API](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/batch-api)** Supported **[Flex inference](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/flex-inference)** Not supported **[Priority inference](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/priority-inference)** Not supported |37| Versions | Read the [model version patterns](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/models/gemini#model-versions) for more details. - Stable: `gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image` |38| Latest update | June 2026 |39| Model card | [Model card](https://deepmind.google/models/model-cards/gemini-3-1-flash-lite-image/) |
