Gemini Omni Flash Text-to-Video API
Gemini Omni Flash Text-to-Video is a text-to-video model developed by Google DeepMind. Unveiled at Google I/O on May 19, 2026, it entered public preview on June 30, 2026, and officially opened its API in August 2026. As the first model in the Gemini Omni series, it combines Gemini's reasoning capabilities with Veo video generation and image generation technologies, supporting direct generation of high-quality 24 FPS dynamic videos with audio from text prompts.
The iCreat platform exposes its text-to-video capability via the endpoint https://api.icreat.ai/v1/task/submit/gemini-omni-flash/text-to-video, operating in an asynchronous three-step mode with the 720p resolution tier at $0.125/second.
Model Positioning
Gemini Omni Flash is the first model in Google DeepMind's Gemini Omni series, positioned as a unified multimodal generation model capable of "any input → any output." Built on a Transformer-based architecture with native multimodal support for text, image, audio, and video inputs, it eliminates the need for cascading multiple independent models. On the iCreat platform, the model focuses on text-to-video generation, enabling users to create 24 FPS high-quality dynamic videos from text prompts with conversational editing and multi-turn context retention. The official Omni 1.1 Flash update added 360p draft, 1080p, and 4K supersampling output capabilities.
Core Capabilities
Multimodal Input Processing
The model accepts text and image inputs, precisely parsing complex prompts to generate dynamic visual content, transforming text concepts into moving imagery.
High-Quality Video Output
The API generates dynamic video outputs at 24 frames per second with natively generated synchronized audio, supporting both 16:9 landscape and 9:16 portrait aspect ratios.
Flexible Duration Control
Supports integer-second duration settings from 3 to 10 seconds, allowing users to flexibly select video length based on their needs.
Conversational Video Editing
Supports multi-turn natural language conversational editing, enabling users to iteratively refine generated videos through follow-up instructions with context retention.
SynthID Digital Watermarking
All generated content is embedded with SynthID digital watermarking to ensure AI-generated content provenance and traceability.
Pricing
| Resolution | Unit Price | Billing | Example Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 720p | $0.125/second | Unit price × output duration | 5 seconds = $0.625 |
Note: The above is the iCreat platform price. The official Google Gemini API reference price is approximately $0.10/second (720p, token-based billing); as a third-party relay service, iCreat's price includes platform service fees, and the iCreat platform price shall prevail.
Application Scenarios
- Social media content creation and short-form video generation
- Dynamic product visualization and advertising video production for e-commerce
- Film pre-visualization and storyboard concept generation
- Creative design concept dynamic prototyping
- Educational and presentation content dynamic visualization

Architecture
The iCreat platform's Gemini Omni Flash Text-to-Video operates using an asynchronous three-step architecture. Users submit tasks via the submission endpoint, and the system returns a task ID. The task status is then polled via the query-status endpoint, and once complete, the final video result is retrieved via the get-result endpoint. Requests must include the API Key in the Authorization header for authentication, along with the X-ICREAT-AI-GROUP: atlas header. The request body contains the input array (multimodal input content) and the response_format object (output video specifications). The model ID is included in the submission endpoint URL path; the request body does not use a model field.
Notes
- The
durationparameter must be an integer between 3 and 10; non-integer or out-of-range values will be rejected - The iCreat endpoint currently only supports the 720p resolution tier; higher resolutions are not yet available
- Tasks use an asynchronous mode; a reasonable polling interval for status queries is recommended
- The price is the iCreat platform price, which differs from the official Google pricing; the iCreat platform price shall prevail
- Please safeguard your API Key and avoid hardcoding it in client-side code or public repositories
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the billing calculated?
Billing is calculated as the unit price multiplied by the output video duration. The current 720p resolution tier is priced at $0.125/second. For example, generating a 5-second video costs $0.625. The total amount is based on the actual output video duration.
Why is the price higher than the Google official price?
iCreat acts as a third-party relay platform, and the price includes platform service fees. The official Google Gemini API reference price is approximately $0.10/second, while the iCreat platform price is $0.125/second. The iCreat platform price shall prevail for billing.
What is the maximum single duration?
The video generation duration ranges from 3 to 10 seconds, with a maximum of 10 seconds. The duration parameter must be an integer within this range.
Does the model support audio generation?
Yes, Gemini Omni Flash outputs 24 FPS high-quality video that includes natively generated synchronized audio.
Why is the resolution only 720p?
The iCreat endpoint currently only exposes the 720p resolution tier. The official follow-up version Omni 1.1 Flash (released 2026-08-27) added 360p draft, 1080p, and 4K supersampling output capabilities, but the iCreat endpoint has not yet opened higher resolution tiers.
Can I use both text and image inputs simultaneously?
Yes. The input array supports multimodal inputs, allowing you to combine text prompts with publicly accessible image URLs to guide the video generation direction.
