What this means for you

If you price video generation into a product, replan around $0.07 per second of 720p, down 30%, with 15 seconds in one call. Edits no longer require regenerating the clip. There is no independent evaluation yet of the claimed reference accuracy.

Google made Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash generally available through its API and its business tier, a video generation and editing model that produces clips up to 15 seconds natively, up from 10, at $0.07 per second of 720p — 30% below Omni 1.1. Duration can be set in one-second steps from 3 to 15. Edits are conversational and multi-turn, so a detail can be fixed without regenerating the clip, and drafts can be made at 360p or 720p then upscaled to 1080p or 4K. The comparison with 1.1 rests on Google's own examples; no scores were published.
