What is Nano Banana Pro?
Nano Banana Pro is a distinct Google image model on Kie, available on monalisa-1 for new generation and for edits from references. It is listed as its own page rather than as a quality tier of Nano Banana 2, so its cost and its limits stay explicit.
The differences from Nano Banana 2 are concrete: monalisa-1 charges 45 credits per run instead of 15, and the reference cap is 8 images instead of 14. Prompt length, aspect ratios and 4K output are comparable, which makes the two a clean matched-comparison pair.
Evaluate the higher-cost entry on your own brief
Pro costs more credits than every other entry on monalisa-1. This site does not translate that price into a quality ranking, because no matched evaluation has been published here to support one.
The useful test is your own: run the same prompt and the same references through Nano Banana 2 and through Pro, look at the two results side by side, and decide whether the difference is worth three times the credits for your project.

How to run a Nano Banana Pro comparison on monalisa-1
At 45 credits a run, Pro rewards a deliberate test on monalisa-1 rather than casual iteration.
- 1
Fix the prompt before you spend
Draft and refine on a cheaper entry first — Z-Image at 4 credits or GPT Image 2 at 6 — so the brief is settled before Pro starts charging.
- 2
Run the same brief on both Nano Banana entries
Generate with Nano Banana 2 and Nano Banana Pro on an identical prompt, ratio, resolution and reference set. Keeping the eight-image cap in mind from the start keeps the two runs comparable.
- 3
Decide on the output, not the label
Put the two results next to each other and let them settle it. Pro is worth three times the credits only when the difference shows up in the work you are actually delivering.
Nano Banana Pro vs the other models on monalisa-1
Pro is the most expensive entry on monalisa-1, so the comparison matters more on this page than anywhere else. What follows is the concrete differences — credits and reference caps — rather than a quality ranking.
Nano Banana Pro vs Nano Banana 2
The direct comparison: 45 credits against 15, and 8 references against 14. Both cover generation and editing with the same seven ratios and the same PNG or JPG output. If your work depends on stacking many sources, Nano Banana 2 is the more capable of the two on that specific axis.
Nano Banana 2Nano Banana Pro vs GPT Image 2
GPT Image 2 runs at 6 credits, takes up to 16 references and is the entry this site points to for layouts with readable words. Pro costs seven and a half times as much per run, so reserve it for the frames that justify it rather than for the exploration phase.
GPT Image 2Nano Banana Pro vs monalisa-1
monalisa-1 is an art-first model still in development, with every specification listed as TBA and no credit price at all — it cannot be selected or charged. Pro is available now, so the two are not alternatives to each other today.

Nano Banana Pro FAQ
Why does Nano Banana Pro cost more?
It is a separate upstream model with a higher configured platform price: 45 credits against 15 for Nano Banana 2. That price is a cost, not evidence of a quality advantage.
Can I use reference images with Nano Banana Pro?
Yes. The image-to-image workflow accepts up to 8 references — fewer than Nano Banana 2's 14, so plan the composite around that cap.
Should I use Pro for drafts?
Usually not. Settle the prompt on Z-Image or GPT Image 2 first, then spend 45 credits once the brief is fixed.
How many credits does one Pro generation cost?
A fixed 45 monalisa-1 credits, resolved on the server from the same catalog the interface reads, regardless of resolution or reference count.
Is Nano Banana Pro better than Nano Banana 2?
monalisa-1 does not claim a ranking, because it has not published a matched evaluation. The comparison that counts is the one you run on your own brief, and the generator above makes that a two-run test.
Which aspect ratios and resolutions does Pro support?
The same seven ratios as Nano Banana 2 — 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16, 2:3 and 3:2 — with 1K, 2K and 4K where the upstream model supports it.
Do Pro and Nano Banana 2 share the same settings?
The control surface is the same, so a prompt, ratio, resolution and format carry over unchanged. Only the reference cap differs, at 8 instead of 14.
Is Nano Banana Pro the most expensive model here?
Yes. At 45 credits it is the highest fixed price in this catalog, against 15 for Nano Banana 2, 6 for GPT Image 2 and 4 for Z-Image.
