generative video

Google released Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash on 27 August 2026, the production version of its generative video model, and the headline change is output above 720p. The model now accepts resolution values of 360p, 720p, 1080p and 4K, extends an existing clip in ten-second increments to a cumulative forty seconds, and interpolates footage between a start frame and an end frame you supply. It is paid-tier only, billed on output tokens at a rate Google states as 5,792 tokens per second of 720p video — roughly $0.10 per second — with a 360p draft tier at a third of that cost and up to 60% faster. This breakdown covers exactly what shipped, why the 1080p and 4K figures are documented as upscales rather than native renders, how the token billing compares against Veo 3.1, which surfaces the model is live on today, and the limitations list that blocks editing uploaded video for users in the UK, the EEA and Switzerland.
