  "title": "Start building with Nano Banana 2 Lite and Gemini Omni Flash",
  "why_included": "Two new Gemini API models: Nano Banana 2 Lite generates 1K images in ~4s at $0.034 each, and Omni Flash does video at $0.10/sec in public preview — cheap enough to wire asset generation into agent pipelines.",
  "summary": "**The gist** Google shipped two models to the Gemini API and AI Studio on June 30, 2026: **Nano Banana 2 Lite** (gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image), producing 1K-resolution images in about **4 seconds** for **$0.034** each, and **Gemini Omni Flash** (gemini-omni-flash-preview), a video generation and editing model priced at $0.10 per second of output.",
  "practical_implication": "**Why it matters** These are priced for programmatic use: image generation cheap enough to call in a loop from a coding agent, and video with **conversational editing** and multimodal inputs at **10-second** clips. Both are callable now through the **Gemini API**, so asset-generation steps can move inside your build pipelines instead of a separate design tool.",
