The model accepts text, images, video, and PDF inputs, supports interleaved text and image generation, and can ground outputs with Google Search and Google Image Search for long-tail entity recognition. It is priced at $1.5 per million input tokens and $7.5 per million output tokens, with a 128K context window, 12.4s latency, and 90.8 tokens per second throughput.", "body_md": "Gemini Nano Banana 2.1 is an upgraded multimodal reasoning image model for production-grade image generation and editing, with stronger prompt adherence, multi-reference editing, and improved visual fidelity. It understands text, images, video, and PDF inputs, supports interleaved text and image generation, and can reason over complex spatial and compositional instructions before generating images. The model also supports grounding with Google Search and Google Image Search for better long-tail entity recognition, visual understanding, and output accuracy.\n\n[Back to Models](https://zenmux.ai/models)\n\n## Providers\n\nRoute requests across multiple providers.
