Nano Banana 2 LiteAI image generator
Lightest Nano Banana — cheapest drafts. Pay only for the takes you keep — kill the rest for a full refund.
Nano Banana 2 Lite is the lite image model in Google's Nano Banana family. On Elyum it runs as text to image for cheap drafts: prompt a scene, check composition and style, and iterate without spending like you would on a heavier model.
Use it for moodboards, social drafts, layout tests, and prompt exploration before you spend on a heavier model. Fair-use unlimited on the Pro plan ($29/mo), on the same credit balance as 50+ other Elyum models.
