| Which plan to pick | An individual should take Professional: the free redo is worth the extra $10 over Basic. Companies should use the Team plan, where credits never expire and the per-person price drops as you buy more. | Pro covers most sellers who design regularly and need print-quality exports. Only move to Expert or Max if you generate lots of AI product images or video every week. Monthly billing costs roughly a third more than yearly. | Start free in the Gemini app to see if it suits your work. If you make images most weeks, Google AI Pro is the one to buy because it unlocks Nano Banana Pro and comes with Gemini, video credits and storage. Developers should use Nano Banana 2 on the API and save Pro for hero images. |
