Use Nano Banana 2.1 from the API

OpenAI-compatible. Same Faceb.ai tokens cover chat and API. Drop-in replacement for the OpenAI SDK.

curl https://api.faceb.ai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-faceb-YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "google/gemini-nano-banana-2.1",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
    "stream": true
  }'
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.faceb.ai/v1",
    api_key="sk-faceb-YOUR_KEY",
)

stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="google/gemini-nano-banana-2.1",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
    stream=True,
)
for chunk in stream:
    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="", flush=True)
import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://api.faceb.ai/v1",
  apiKey: "sk-faceb-YOUR_KEY",
});

const stream = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "google/gemini-nano-banana-2.1",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
  stream: true,
});
for await (const chunk of stream) {
  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content || "");
}

Also works for image generation (image-output model slugs return image_url content parts) and web search (add "web_search": true to the payload). Same endpoint, same wallet.
