Google's Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash stretches single AI video clips to 15 seconds and cuts prices 30%
Google has launched Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, raising the single-generation video limit from 10 to 15 seconds and cutting 720p pricing by 30 per cent to $0.07 per second. It is generally available through the Gemini API and Google Cloud, with limited access in the Gemini app.
Google announced Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash this week, an update to its video-generation model that lets users create clips of up to 15 seconds in a single request. Durations can be chosen in one-second steps from 3 to 15 seconds; version 1.1 capped single generations at 10 seconds.
Pricing for 720p output falls by 30 per cent to $0.07 per second, according to reports of the launch. The model is generally available through the Gemini API and Google Cloud.
In the Gemini app, 15-second clips are initially rolling out to Google AI Ultra subscribers. In Google Vids, anyone with a Google account or Workspace subscription can generate up to three 15-second clips a month at no extra cost.
Google says clips can still be edited conversationally across the full 15 seconds, and that the model holds references together better than before.
Why it matters
Longer single-shot clips reduce the stitching work that makes AI video awkward for advertising and training content, while falling per-second prices make experimentation cheaper.
Bundling generation into Workspace shows how quickly video AI is moving from specialist tool to everyday office feature.
Indicops view
Marketing, e-learning and public-communication teams in India can pilot short multilingual explainer videos at low cost, but should set clear policies on disclosure, brand safety and synthetic-media labelling before putting such clips in front of citizens or customers.
