When to use Veo 3

Updated 2026-07-31

Where this model earns its cost — and where it doesn't.

Veo 3 is Google’s flagship video generation model. It produces 1080p clips with native audio output, handling dialogue, ambient sound, and lip-sync alignment. The model accepts text prompts and reference images.

On Kyma, this model runs on a premium cost tier with slower generation speeds. It supports prompt caching, which bills repeated input prefixes at 10% of the standard rate. All requests route through Kyma’s OpenAI-compatible endpoint using a single API key, include automatic failover, and return exact billing data in usage.cost.

The model does not support reasoning, vision analysis, or structured outputs. It is billed per second of generated output and is optimized for final-quality assets rather than high-throughput or low-latency workflows.

Talking head avatars
