Why developers choose Veo 3.1 Fast API

For teams requiring speed without sacrificing coherence, Veo 3.1 Fast offers the best price-performance ratio for commercial video generation.

Optimized for API speed

Significantly faster inference times compared to the standard model, enabling near-interactive workflows for end-users.

Cost-effective scaling

Lower compute costs per second make it feasible to run thousands of iterations for A/B testing ads or personalizing user content.

Production-ready outputs

Delivers 720p for drafts and 1080p for final export, with built-in watermarking to ensure safety and compliance.

How to integrate Veo 3.1 Fast

A simple API workflow to generate video with audio from text or images.

1

Step 1 — Configure parameters

Set your desired duration (4s, 6s, 8s), aspect ratio, and resolution (720p/1080p) in the API request body.

2

Step 2 — Send prompt & references

Submit your text prompt along with optional reference images for style control or specific start/end frames for transitions.

3

Step 3 — Retrieve video + audio

Receive the MP4 output with fully embedded, synchronized audio ready for immediate playback or publishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Veo 3.1 Fast API provides programmatic access to Google's speed-optimized video generation model. It prioritizes lower latency and cost while maintaining 1080p resolution and native audio capabilities, making it ideal for scalable applications.
Yes. Unlike many older models, Veo 3.1 Fast generates native audio (including dialogue, ambience, and music) that matches the video content in a single generation pass.
Absolutely. The API supports 'Reference Images' to guide the visual style or character consistency. You can also use 'First and Last Frame' inputs to control the exact starting and ending points of the clip.
Veo 3.1 Fast is significantly cheaper per second of generated video compared to the standard Veo 3.1 model. Through EvoLink routing, costs are optimized to start around $0.15 per second depending on volume.
The API outputs MP4 files in 720p or 1080p resolution. You can choose between 16:9 (landscape) or 9:16 (vertical) aspect ratios, with durations of 4, 6, or 8 seconds.
Yes, Veo 3.1 Fast is designed for commercial workflows, including advertising and social media automation. It includes SynthID watermarking to ensure transparency and compliance.
