Veo 3.1 Fast
A fast video generation model from Google designed for quick, high-quality AI video creation via Vertex AI and the Gemini API.
Fast video generation from text and images
Veo 3.1 Fast is a video generation model developed by Google, part of the Veo 3.1 model family. It is optimized for speed, making it suitable for workflows that require rapid video output at scale. The model is available through both the Gemini API and Vertex AI, giving developers two integration paths for production use. The stable endpoint identifier is veo-3.1-fast-generate-001, which replaced an earlier preview endpoint.
Veo 3.1 Fast accepts text prompts as well as image inputs, including single images and image arrays, allowing for both text-to-video and image-to-video generation workflows. It supports configuration options such as aspect ratio, duration, and resolution through toggle-based parameters. The model is best suited for developers and creators who need to generate video content quickly at scale and require a stable, production-grade API endpoint for integration into their pipelines.
