Create professional infographics using Nano Banana Pro AI with smart iterative refinement. Uses Gemini 3 Pro for quality review. Integrates research-lookup and web search for accurate data...
Infographics are visual representations of information, data, or knowledge designed to present complex content quickly and clearly. This skill uses Nano Banana Pro AI for infographic generation with Gemini 3 Pro quality review and Perplexity Sonar for research.
How it works:
Quality Thresholds by Document Type:
| Document Type | Threshold | Description |
|---|---|---|
| marketing | 8.5/10 | Marketing materials - must be compelling |
| report | 8.0/10 | Business reports - professional quality |
| presentation | 7.5/10 | Slides, talks - clear and engaging |
| social | 7.0/10 | Social media content |
| internal | 7.0/10 | Internal use |
| draft | 6.5/10 | Working drafts |
| default | 7.5/10 | General purpose |
Simply describe what you want, and Nano Banana Pro creates it.
Generate any infographic by simply describing it:
