| Which plan to pick | There's nothing to buy for the names themselves. If you want a logo for the name you pick, Brandmark sells one-off logo packages from $35, but you can take the name anywhere. | 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 adds 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. | Try it free first. If you have a pile of old photos to restore, pay for a week, do them all, then cancel before it renews. Weekly billing gets expensive if you forget. |
