Upgraded to Nano Banana 2: Better Image Generation

Shortodella now runs on Nano Banana 2, a faster and higher-quality image generation model. Better details, sharper text, and improved reference image handling.

Upgraded to Nano Banana 2: Better Image Generation

We just shipped a major upgrade to the image generation engine behind Shortodella. All image generation now runs on Nano Banana 2, our new default model.

Every image you create or edit on Shortodella now goes through Nano Banana 2. No settings to change, no buttons to click. It just works, and it works better.

What Changed

Better image quality. Sharper details, more accurate colors, and improved consistency when editing existing images. Text rendering in images is noticeably better.

Faster generation. The new model delivers results faster than its predecessor, especially for complex edits with reference images.

Same pricing. Generation still costs 1 energy credit, same as before.

Better Reference Image Handling

One of the biggest improvements in Nano Banana 2 is how it works with reference images. When you upload a photo and ask for edits, the new model stays much closer to the original. Colors, composition, and key details are preserved more accurately.

This makes iterative editing more predictable. You can refine an image step by step without the model drifting away from what you started with.

Whether you are adjusting a product shot, tweaking a design, or building on a previous generation, Nano Banana 2 keeps the context and delivers consistent results.
