Where to Use Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 5, Flux 2 & More

Where to use Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 5.0, Flux 2, GPT Image 2, Qwen Image and Recraft online, with credit prices, plus Midjourney and Ideogram.

By VdoBloom Team

You can use Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 5.0, Flux 2, GPT Image 2, Qwen Image 2.1 and Recraft V4 in one browser tab on VdoBloom's AI Image Generator, paying per image with credits instead of a subscription. Prices run from 3 credits (GPT Image 2 or Qwen Image 2.1 at 1K) to 24 credits (Nano Banana Pro at 4K). New accounts get 10 free credits. VdoBloom does not offer Midjourney or Ideogram; for those, use their own websites.

Each model also has an official home. This page lists both, so you can choose between going direct and using one account for many models.

Where can I use Nano Banana Pro?

Nano Banana Pro is Google's image model. Officially, you reach it through Google's Gemini app and Google's developer tools, where access and limits depend on your Google plan. On VdoBloom it is in the AI Image Generator at 18 credits per image at 1K or 2K, or 24 at 4K. Use it when the image has to carry readable text, or when you edit a photo and want the person to stay the same. Our Nano Banana Pro how-to and prompt list cover the details.

Where can I use Seedream 5.0?

Seedream is ByteDance's image model family. Officially it appears in ByteDance's own creative apps and its cloud API. On VdoBloom you get three versions: Seedream 5.0 Pro (10 credits Standard, 19 High), Seedream 5 Lite (6 credits) and Seedream 5 Flash (2 credits), which is one of the cheapest ways to draft ideas. We wrote a full page on where to use Seedream 5.

Where can I use Flux 2 online?

Flux 2 is made by Black Forest Labs, which offers it through its own API and partner apps. On VdoBloom, FLUX.2 [dev] makes images from text or a reference for 4 credits, and Flux 2 Pro image-to-image edits with 1 to 8 input images for 12 credits. See how to use FLUX.2 [dev] and how to use Flux 2 Pro image-to-image.

Where can I use GPT Image 2 without ChatGPT Plus?

GPT Image 2 is OpenAI's image model. Inside ChatGPT, how much you can use it depends on your plan, and developers can call it through OpenAI's API. If you do not want a monthly ChatGPT plan, VdoBloom runs GPT Image 2 per image: 3 credits at 1K, 5 at 2K and 8 at 4K, for both text-to-image and image-to-image. GPT Image 2.5 costs the same. The 10 free sign-up credits cover three 1K images. Guides: GPT Image 2 text-to-image and GPT Image 2.5.

Where can I use Midjourney-style models without Discord?

Midjourney is not available on VdoBloom, and no other site can sell you real Midjourney access. You do not need Discord any more, though: Midjourney has its own web app on its website, which needs a Midjourney subscription.

If what you want is the look, painterly, cinematic and high on style, several models here can get close with the right prompt. Seedream 5.0 Pro and Nano Banana Pro handle cinematic and illustrated styles, and Recraft V4 is strong on design and illustration. Our Midjourney alternatives guide compares them. Describe the style in words ("matte painting, soft volumetric light, muted palette") rather than writing a Midjourney parameter, which other models ignore.

Where can I use Qwen Image?

Qwen Image is Alibaba's image model family, offered through Alibaba's Qwen apps and cloud. On VdoBloom, Qwen Image 2.1 costs 3 credits at 1K and 5 at 2K, for both text-to-image and image-to-image. Its standout feature is a real transparent background (a PNG with an alpha channel), which is handy for logos, stickers and product cut-outs. See the Qwen Image 2.1 guide and transparent background images.

Where can I use Ideogram 3 or Recraft?

Ideogram is not on VdoBloom; use Ideogram's own website for it. Recraft is: Recraft V4 costs 12 credits, Recraft V4 Pro 22 (2K), and the vector versions 14 and 24. Recraft is the better fit when you need brand colours, clean design or a vector file. If you came for Ideogram's text rendering, try GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana Pro, which are both strong at lettering. Read the Recraft V4 guide and Ideogram alternatives.

Should I go direct or use one account for all of them?

Go direct if you use one model every day and its plan suits you. One account makes more sense if you switch between models. You can run the same prompt on GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 5.0 Pro and keep the best, with one balance and no stack of monthly plans. Our side-by-side test of Nano Banana Pro vs GPT Image 2 vs Seedream 5 shows how they differ on the same prompts.

  1. Sign up and open the AI Image Generator.
  2. Pick a model and resolution; the credit cost shows on the button.
  3. Type the prompt, or upload a photo in the AI Photo Editor to edit.
  4. Generate, compare, and switch models with the same prompt if the first does not land.

Every model also has a page in the model directory.
