Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 pricing on Google's API is about $0.07 a second at 720p, so a full 15 second clip costs about $1.04, and Google has no free tier for it. We read these prices on 6 November 2026, the day after Google launched the model as Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash. This guide covers the rate at each resolution, what changed from 1.1 and three worked budgets. It also prices the same model in credits on Wireflow, which runs it as a node next to 100+ AI models.

On Wireflow, Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 costs about 89 credits for an 8 second clip at the default 720p and up to about 167 credits for 15 seconds. At about 1.35 cents a credit on monthly plans, or about 1.13 cents on yearly billing, that's $1.00 to $1.20 for 8 seconds and $1.88 to $2.26 for 15. That's about 1.8 to 2.2 times Google's own price per clip, depending on plan.

That 8 second figure is 30% below Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 in the same catalog. It matches the cut Google made on its own API. Our page on Gemini Omni Flash on Wireflow covers the model family as a whole. It shows each mode and how to test one prompt on Veo 3.1 and Seedance 2.5 as well.

Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 prices per second on Google's API

Google bills the model's video output at $12.00 per million tokens. Its pricing page turns that into a rate per second for each resolution. Google lists 1080p and 4K as upsampled output, which is why they cost more per second. The rates below come from Google AI Studio's pricing page on 6 November 2026, and we worked out the clip prices from them.

ResolutionPrice per second8 second clip15 second clip
360pabout $0.023about $0.18about $0.35

1080p, upsampled$0.104about $0.83$1.56
4K, upsampled$0.209about $1.67about $3.14

There is no free tier on the Gemini API or in Google AI Studio, so every clip bills to a paid account. On Google Cloud the model runs on Standard pay as you go or Provisioned Throughput, in the global region only. It has no batch mode, so a big overnight run costs the same per second as a single test.

Clips come in 16:9 or 9:16 at any whole-second length from 3 to 15 seconds. Google also puts an invisible SynthID watermark on every clip it makes.

What changed from Gemini Omni Flash 1.1

Google cut the 720p price by about 30% in 1.2. It went from about $0.10 a second on Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 to about $0.07. A 10 second clip at 720p, the longest 1.1 could make, now costs about $0.69 instead of about $1.00.

  • Clips now run up to 15 seconds, where 1.1 stopped at 10.
  • From 3 December 2026, Google routes API requests for gemini-omni-1.1-flash to 1.2 and bills them at 1.2 rates, so old code gets the lower price and also the newer model's output.
  • Google says you can draft at 360p or 720p and upscale the take you keep to 1080p or 4K.
  • Google also claims steadier characters and products across a clip, fewer jump cuts and clearer lip-sync, though we haven't seen an independent test of any of that yet.

On Wireflow the three versions are separate nodes, each with its own rate. The catalog quotes video rates per second at a 5 second reference clip. The dollar column uses Starter's $36 for 2,660 credits.

Node on WireflowCredits a second, 5 second rate8 second clip at default settings8 second clip, Starter monthly
Gemini Omni Flash 1.2about 1489 creditsabout $1.20
Gemini Omni Flash 1.116128 creditsabout $1.73
Gemini Omni Flash, the original20160 creditsabout $2.17

Shorter clips cost a bit more per second on 1.2. Its rate of about 14 credits a second at 5 seconds falls to about 11 at 8 and 15 seconds.

What Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 costs on Wireflow

Wireflow bills the model in credits from your plan. On 6 November 2026 the plans were Starter at $36 a month for 2,660 credits and Professional at $59 for 4,370. Team was $299 for 22,140 credits, and all three come to about 1.35 cents a credit. On yearly billing, $360 a year for Starter or $590 for Professional, a credit costs about 1.13 cents. Credits you don't use carry over to the next month on every plan.

Wireflow publishes no separate credit figure for 360p, 1080p or 4K, so we quote only the 720p default here. The board shows the estimate for your length and resolution before you run, and you're charged for the real length.

The node takes a prompt, a start frame with an optional end frame, or up to 6 reference images. It also takes reference videos of up to 3 seconds each, or a clip of up to 15 seconds to edit. It switches mode by what you wire in. Every clip comes with native audio and there's no switch to turn sound off. If nobody should speak, the prompt needs to say "No dialogue".

Per clip, Google's API costs less, about $1.04 for 15 seconds at 720p against $1.88 to $2.26 in credits. On Wireflow you don't need a Google Cloud project, an API key or any code. You run the node on the canvas, or from Claude through the Wireflow connector, and one credit balance covers it and the rest of the 100+ AI models on Wireflow. You can compare video models side by side on one prompt and cut the takes in the Video Editor, whose exports use no credits.

Our page on making Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 clips in Claude shows the Claude route step by step.

What a 15 second ad, a 30 second spot and a draft-first clip cost

A 15 second ad

One 15 second clip at 720p costs about $1.04 on Google's API, or $1.56 if you want 1080p. On Wireflow the same clip at 720p costs about 167 credits, which is about $2.26 on Starter monthly or $1.88 on yearly billing. Fifteen seconds is also the longest single take 1.2 can make.

A 30 second spot from two clips

Since 1.2 tops out at 15 seconds, a 30 second spot is two clips cut together. That comes to about $2.08 at 720p on Google's API. On Wireflow it costs about 334 credits, which is about $4.52 on a monthly plan or $3.77 on yearly billing, and both clips feed the Video Editor on the same board. Wiring the same reference images into both clips keeps the product and the presenter matching across the cut. Our page on multi-shot video stitching walks through that job.

With one retake of each clip, the spot comes to about $4.16 on Google's API or about 668 credits on Wireflow.

Draft at 360p, then finish at higher resolution

On Google's API, three 15 second drafts at 360p cost about $1.04 in total. Upscaling the one you keep to 1080p adds about $1.56, assuming the upscale bills at Google's listed 1080p rate. On that assumption the finished clip comes to about $2.60, where four takes rendered at 1080p would cost $6.24.

Wireflow's model guide says 1080p and 4K make a new take from the same prompt, which won't match your draft. So on Wireflow you use 360p drafts to settle the prompt, then run the final at 720p as a new take for up to about 167 credits. To get more pixels from that exact take, you can upscale it with the Topaz Upscale Video node, estimated at about 4 credits a second, or roughly 60 credits for 15 seconds.

Ways to spend less on Gemini Omni Flash 1.2

  • A 360p draft on Google's API costs about a third of the 720p price, about $0.35 for 15 seconds.
  • Billing is per second, and 1.2 takes any whole second from 3 to 15, so a 6 second product shot at 720p is about $0.42 on Google's API instead of $1.04 for the full length.
  • Reference images cut down on re-rolls when a character or product has to look the same. Google's Cloud docs list up to 10 images a prompt and Wireflow's node takes 6, with up to 3 per character, and the guide suggests saying in the prompt what each image is for.
  • The model cuts between shots by default, so writing "single continuous shot, no scene cuts" saves the takes you'd throw away for an unwanted cut.
  • On Wireflow you can run one prompt into Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 and a second model and keep whichever earns its credits.

Of the five video nodes below, Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 has the lowest rate per second. The figures are from the catalog on 6 November 2026.

It suits a clip that's one step in a longer job with other models and the editor, starting from the AI video generator.
