Nano Banana Pro
google's gemini 3 pro image — the accuracy specialist, now overpriced
still the best model for grounded, factually accurate imagery — but its own cheaper stablemate now beats it at editing, which makes the price hard to defend.
nano banana pro is gemini 3 pro image, and its distinguishing trick is that it can search the web mid-generation. for infographics, diagrams with real data, or anything where the picture makes a factual claim, that grounding produces results the others simply can't.
it was google's quality flagship from november until february, and google's own guidance still points here for high-fidelity work requiring maximum factual accuracy.
