Veo 3.1 Lite is Google’s most cost-effective video generation model, now available via the Gemini API.
It solves the biggest bottleneck in AI video — high costs — by offering <50% pricing compared to Veo 3.1 Fast, without compromising on speed.
What makes it different is this strong cost-to-performance balance, enabling high-volume video creation.
It supports Text-to-Video and Image-to-Video, 720p/1080p resolution, flexible aspect ratios (16:9, 9:16), and adjustable durations (4s, 6s, 8s).
Perfect for developers building scalable video apps where efficiency and iteration matter.

@rohanrecommends How does Lite's quality hold up on image-to-video for things like personalized marketing clips? Any prompt tweaks you've seen work best?
I have made hours of videos on my YT channel with previous versions, I tried today 3.1 and all I can say it's, amazing job, still.
