Color palette specifications
Technical parameters (resolution, aspect ratio)

This step ensures even non-technical customers get professional results.

Step 3: Preview Generation

Call the Nano Banana Pro API at 2K resolution for a cost-effective preview. Use a code node to construct the API request with all necessary parameters:

Prompt from AI optimization
Reference images from customer upload
Professional controls (lighting, depth of field)
Resolution setting

Display the preview in a static image node with options to proceed or request revisions.

Step 4: Payment Integration

When the customer approves the preview, trigger the payment workflow:

API Call Node: Create Stripe payment intent with amount based on selected options
Wait Node: Await webhook confirmation of successful payment
Condition Node: Route to fulfillment on success or retry flow on failure

This automation eliminates manual payment tracking and ensures immediate fulfillment.

Step 5: Final Generation and Delivery

After payment confirmation:

Generate final 4K image with Nano Banana Pro
Apply SynthID watermark (or remove for premium tiers)
Send delivery email with:
- Download link (signed URL)
