Luma Labs showed a new image model — Uni-1. On benchmarks it outperforms Nano Banana Pro in some areas.
They added reasoning to the model, so it understands physics and space better than competitors. And when it's added to the API, one generation will cost $0.09, and an edit $0.093. For comparison (these are also per-generation API prices): base Nano Banana 2 costs $0.101, and the Pro version $0.134. The price war continues.
Uni-1 is temporarily free right now. You can test it at Luma Labs.
