1. Studio-quality image generation

• Built on Gemini 3 Pro for exceptionally high fidelity.
• Improved accuracy in composition, physics, lighting, and artistic style.

2. Precise creative controls

• Fine-tune lighting, camera, color grading, focus, and physical realism.
• Ideal for professional production workflows requiring creative direction.

3. Advanced text rendering & localization

• Produces crisp, accurate text inside images (signs, menus, labels, UI elements).
• Can localize text across different languages while preserving layout and style.

4. Multi-input creative workflows

• Supports up to 14 reference images for composite ads or mockups.
• Generates consistent resemblance for up to 5 individuals.
• Works with 2K and 4K resolution outputs.

5. Strong world knowledge

• Understands and reasons about real-world concepts.
• Generates factual assets like diagrams, maps, and educational content.

6. Google Search grounding (when enabled)

• Retrieves real-time web data to improve factual accuracy.
• Useful for data-driven graphics, infographics, and historically accurate visuals.

7. Enhanced editing capabilities

• Handles local edits, transformations, pose changes, and reference-based modifications.
• Maintains stylistic consistency during image-to-image operations.

8. Developer-friendly ecosystem

• Fully integrated into Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, and Antigravity platform.
• Supported in Adobe, Figma, and agentic development workflows.

9. SynthID provenance watermark

• Every generated or edited image includes an invisible SynthID watermark.
• Ensures content authenticity and responsible AI usage.

1. Frontier-level coding at small-model speed

• Similar coding performance to Claude Sonnet 4 at one-third the cost.
• Runs 4-5x faster than Sonnet 4.5 for many tasks.
• Ideal for real-time pair programming, prototyping, and rapid iteration.

2. Excellent computer-use abilities

• Surpasses Claude Sonnet 4 in certain computer-control tasks.
• Great for agents requiring low-latency tool use (Chrome automation, coding agents, etc.).

3. Perfect for real-time, low-latency applications

• Chat assistants
• Customer support agents
• Interactive development loops
• Multi-agent orchestration

4. Works seamlessly with Sonnet 4.5 in hybrid agent setups

• Sonnet 4.5 plans complex workflows.
• Haiku 4.5 executes subtasks in parallel for speed and cost-efficiency.

5. High alignment & safest Claude model by metric

• Lower misaligned behavior rates than Haiku 3.5, Sonnet 4.5, and Opus 4.1.
• Limited CBRN risk → released under AI Safety Level 2 (ASL-2).
