# Models

Find AI image and video models, their credit costs, reference support and prompting guides.

![The model menu with GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst highlighted. Its card shows its speed, quality, 30 credits per image, and that it works from text and from images.](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/models/model-picker.light.webp)

## Overview

Choose from AI image and video models with different styles, settings and credit costs. These tables use the app’s model catalog. Hover over a model in the app to see more detail, including speed and reference-image support.

For suggestions by task and example results, see [Which model for what](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/which-model).

## Image models

| Model | Best for | Credits per image | Reference images |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- |
| GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst | OpenAI's most capable image model, built for precise edits | 30 | Up to 8 |
| GPT Image 2.5 Flare | OpenAI's fastest model for everyday image generation | 30 | Up to 8 |
| Nano Banana 2.1 | Pro quality at Flash speed, up to 4K | 10 | Up to 14 |
| Nano Banana 2 Lite | Google's fastest and cheapest, built for iterating | 8 | Up to 14 |
| Nano Banana Pro | Highest quality from Google, up to 4K | 32 | Up to 14 |
| Flux 3 Image | Generation and editing in one model, with web search | 6 | Up to 10 |
| Seedream 5 Pro | Text-to-image and editing at 1K and 2K | 11 | Up to 10 |
| Seedream 5 Lite | Built-in reasoning with example-based editing up to 3K | 10 | Up to 14 |
| Krea 2 | Photorealism and expressive artistic styles | 14 | Up to 10 |
| Recraft V4.1 Pro | 2x resolution Recraft for print and large-scale work | 59 | None |
| Recraft V4.1 Pro SVG | High-resolution SVG vectors for large-scale production | 59 | None |
| Arrow 2 | Clean, editable SVG vectors from text | 59 | Up to 14 |
| Ideogram 4.5 | Typography and graphic design, with precise edits | 14 | Up to 5 |
| Recraft V4.1 | Art-directed images with precise text rendering | 10 | None |
| Recraft V4.1 SVG | Native editable SVG vectors from text prompts | 10 | None |
| Flux 2 Klein 9B | Enhanced realism, crisper text and better color adherence | 4 | Up to 5 |
| Flux 2 Klein 4B | Precise modifications using natural language descriptions | 1 | Up to 5 |
| Imagen 4 Ultra | Imagen 4 at its highest fidelity | 14 | None |
| Flux Kontext Max | Complex scenes with strong spatial awareness | 19 | Up to 8 |
| Imagen 4 | Photorealistic results with accurate text rendering | 10 | None |

**Credits per image** is the price at the model's default setting. Models with a **Resolution** or **Quality** setting cost a different amount at other steps; [Credit costs](https://batchbanana.com/docs/account-and-billing/credit-costs) lists every step.

**Reference images** is how many of your own images the model reads alongside the prompt. A model with none works from words alone.

## Video models

| Model | Credits per second | Length | Sound | Reference images |
| --- | ---: | --- | --- | --- |
| Seedance 2.5 | 54 | 4 to 30 s | Optional | Up to 30 |
| MiniMax H3 | 19 | 4 to 15 s | Always | Up to 9 |
| Seedance 2.0 | 42 | 4 to 15 s | Optional | Up to 9 |
| Flux 3 Video | 40 | 5 to 20 s | Optional | Up to 8 |
| Veo 3.1 | 94 | 4, 6, 8 s | Optional | Up to 3 |
| Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash | 35 | 10 s | Always | Up to 3 |
| Kling 3.0 | 53 | 3 to 15 s | Optional | None |
| Runway Gen-4.5 | 28 | 5, 10 s | No | None |

A video's price depends on its length, its resolution and whether it has sound. The figure here is the base rate per second; [Credit costs](https://batchbanana.com/docs/account-and-billing/credit-costs) gives the price of a full clip.

## Prompting guides

Seven model families have their own guide, with their makers' advice, our own tests and example images:

- [Nano Banana](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/nano-banana): Google's models, from quick drafts to 4K.
- [GPT Image](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/gpt-image): exact text, careful edits and layouts.
- [Ideogram](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/ideogram): posters, logos and anything with words on it.
- [Flux](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/flux): lettering in many languages, web search for real places, edits from up to 10 images.
- [Seedream](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/seedream): drafts, edits copied by example and precise layouts.
- [Recraft](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/recraft): designed images and real SVG files from words alone.
- [Arrow](https://batchbanana.com/docs/models/arrow): real SVG vectors for icons and marks.
