What is it?
Gemini Omni Flash is Google's new preview model for fast video generation with conversational editing — speak a follow-up like "make the sky purple" and the same clip is re-rendered. Nano Banana 2 Lite (model ID gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image) is a cheaper, faster sibling of Nano Banana 2 for everyday image generation. Both are accessible today in Google AI Studio, the Gemini API, and Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform.
How does it work?
Omni Flash accepts a text prompt plus an optional video reference up to 3 seconds long and renders up to 10 seconds of output, conversationally refinable in the Gemini app and Google Flow. Nano Banana 2 Lite is tuned for ultra-low latency over peak quality — it returns a 1K-resolution image in about 4 seconds and is wired into Search, the Gemini app, NotebookLM, Google Photos, and other consumer surfaces.
Why does it matter?
Pricing is the news: $0.10 per second of video and $0.034 per image bring generative media into per-call API budgets that previously fit only text. For app developers, Omni Flash and Nano Banana 2 Lite are the first Gemini media models cheap enough to run inline in product flows instead of as a special premium feature.
