[Press Release] Generative AI platform "illuminAI" receives major update! Adds Google-based models "Nano Banana" and "Imagen 4"

Beyond Inc. (headquartered in Osaka), a provider of cloud server managed services and system development, has implemented a major update to its AI platform "illuminAI," which can generate high-quality images and videos simply by entering text, including the addition of Google's latest generative AI models, "Nano Banana" and the "Imagen 4" series. This gives users greater flexibility in selecting models to suit a wider range of applications

Main update contents

① Adding the latest Google-based AI model

New models have been added: the Google-based "Nano Banana," "Nano Banana Pro," "Imagen 4," and "Imagen 4 Ultra." The "Nano Banana series" supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image generation, while the "Imagen 4 series" specializes in text-to-image generation

② Supports high resolution (up to 4K) on Seedream 4.0 models

The Seedream 4.0 model now supports 2K and 4K high resolution settings

With support for high resolutions up to 4K, you can use high-quality AI-generated images that are suitable for professional production environments, such as advertising creatives, print materials, and high-definition display content

3) Improved convenience and stability of the creation experience

In this update, we've improved the display and help for the number of images generated to make image generation more convenient. Specifically, we've added a help message for when the specified number of images is not generated, and changed the display specifications so that the "specified number of images" and "actual number of images that were successful" can be seen at a glance in the generation results area

Additionally, in order to resolve the issue of previous results and new progress information being mixed up when generating images consecutively, we have improved the image editing function so that the results area is automatically refreshed each time you press the generate button. We have also reviewed the behavior of generation retries and adjusted the retry start time when processing takes a long time, preventing unintended duplicate generation

Additionally, we've streamlined the size options for image and video generation, allowing you to smoothly select sizes supported by each model

④ Improvements to the billing system and dashboard

When switching from an annual plan to a higher plan, any remaining credits will be granted in one go before the plan can be changed. Additionally, the lump-sum grant of credits when upgrading from an annual plan is now reflected in your usage history. We've also adjusted the display of the AI ​​Tools section in the dashboard to make it easier to understand

The value of this update

This update, especially with the introduction of Google models, has dramatically expanded the expressive power and options that "IlluminAI" can offer. With a wide range of models and high resolution support, it meets even the most advanced creative needs and provides powerful support for the creativity of everyone, from professionals to casual users

Going forward, illuminAI will continue to strive to be a platform that is easier to use and supports creative expression through continuous feature additions and improvements
