#What it costs
These are credits per clip, as of 2026-10-10. The Studio shows the live quote for your settings before you generate, and the total it charges is that quote multiplied by Count.
| Length | 720p and 1080p, sound off | 4K, sound off | 720p and 1080p, sound on | 4K, sound on |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 s | 735 | 2,205 | 1,103 | 3,308 |
| 6 s | 1,103 | 3,308 | 1,654 | 4,962 |
| 8 s | 1,470 | 4,410 | 2,205 | 6,615 |
The Studio starts with sound on, so the first quote you see is the sound-on price. Switch sound off to pay the lower price.
#Use it in Studio
Step 1: Open Create Video
In Studio, open Create Video. Sign in when the Studio asks, because every generation needs an account.
Step 2: Choose Google Veo 3.1 Fast
Open the model picker, which groups models by maker, and choose Google Veo 3.1 Fast.
Step 3: Write your prompt
Describe the clip. To start from a picture, attach one start image (JPEG, PNG or WEBP, up to 20 MB).
Step 4: Set the output
Set aspect ratio, resolution, length, sound and Count from 1 to 4.
Step 5: Check the price and generate
The Studio shows the credit price for your settings. Videos run in the background: the card updates in place when the clip is ready, and the clip is saved to your Library.
#Limits
- You need to be signed in to generate. Google Veo 3.1 Fast is available on every plan, including Free; credits are the limit.
- One start image only. The Studio has no end frame, no multiple reference images and no video-to-video input.
