A cutting-edge video generation model designed to empower filmmakers and storytellers with stunning realism, native audio, and advanced creative controls. Generate high-fidelity 8-second videos at 720p or 1080p with cinematic quality.
Veo 3.1 builds on Veo 3 with significant upgrades that give creators even more control over their video narratives.
Generate videos with natural dialogue, synchronized sound effects, and ambient noise. All audio is natively generated, creating a complete audiovisual experience.
Improved understanding of cinematic styles and better prompt adherence. Create videos that precisely match your creative vision with greater control over composition, lighting, and camera movement.
Superior audiovisual quality when converting images to videos. Maintain character consistency across multiple scenes with better prompt alignment and enhanced realism.
Veo 3.1 is Google DeepMind's most advanced video generation model, achieving state-of-the-art performance across multiple benchmarks. Built on the foundation of Veo 3, this model excels at a wide range of visual and cinematic styles while delivering stunning realism and true-to-life textures.
Building on Veo 3, version 3.1 delivers three major improvements: richer native audio with natural dialogue, sound effects, and ambient noise; enhanced narrative control with better cinematic-style understanding and prompt adherence; and superior image-to-video capabilities with better audiovisual quality and character consistency across scenes.
Veo 3.1 achieves best-in-class results across multiple benchmarks including MovieGenBench and VBench I2V. It outperforms competing models in overall preference, text alignment, visual quality, realistic physics, and audio-video synchronization based on human rater evaluations.
Transform text prompts into cinematic videos with native audio. Veo 3.1 understands complex instructions and generates videos with dialogue, sound effects, and ambient noise that perfectly match your description.
Bring static images to life with motion and audio. Upload an image or use one generated by Nano Banana, and Veo 3.1 will create a video that maintains the image's style while adding realistic movement and sound.
Guide video generation with up to 3 reference images of characters, objects, or scenes. This feature ensures consistency across multiple shots, making it perfect for multi-scene projects and maintaining brand identity.
Create smooth transitions by specifying the starting and ending frames. Veo 3.1 generates the perfect bridge between two images, complete with accompanying audio, ideal for creating seamless scene transitions.
Extend previously generated Veo videos by 7 seconds at a time, up to 20 extensions. Create longer narratives up to 141 seconds (over 2 minutes) while maintaining visual continuity and audio coherence.
Add new elements to any scene, from realistic details to fantastical creatures. Veo 3.1 automatically handles complex details like shadows and scene lighting, making additions look natural and integrated.

Single generation is limited to 8 seconds. For longer videos, use the Scene Extension feature to extend up to 141 seconds (approximately 2 minutes and 21 seconds) by extending 7 seconds at a time, up to 20 times.
Scene Extension only works with Veo-generated videos (not external videos). Input videos must be 720p resolution with 16:9 or 9:16 aspect ratio, and cannot exceed 141 seconds in total length.
Maximum resolution is 1080p (Full HD). 4K or higher resolutions are not currently supported. Frame rate is fixed at 24 FPS (cinematic standard).
Video generation is an asynchronous operation that requires polling to check completion status. Generation time varies based on complexity and may take several minutes.
The Ingredients to Video feature supports a maximum of 3 reference images per generation. This feature is only available in Veo 3.1 models, not in earlier versions.
Experience the future of AI video generation with state-of-the-art quality, native audio, and unprecedented creative control.
