What changed: Google announced Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, which now generates videos from 3 to 15 seconds (in one-second increments), adds multi-turn conversational editing, improves reference adherence for characters, products and style, and lowers 720p video pricing to $0.07 per second, a 30% cut from Omni 1.1. The model is now generally available on the Gemini API and Google Cloud.
Who is affected
Businesses, startups, creatives and developers using the Gemini API, Google Cloud, Google Vids, Gemini for business and Google Ads for video generation are affected; no country restriction is stated in the source.
What it means for your business
For businesses producing video ads or content through the Gemini API or Google Cloud, this means longer clips (up to 15 seconds) at 30% lower cost, plus the ability to fix details through conversational edits instead of regenerating entire clips.
What to do
If your video production workflow uses the Gemini API or Google Cloud, check the updated pricing and test the 15-second clip length and multi-turn editing features on your current projects.
