Google releases Veo 3.1 Lite in paid preview at under half the cost of Veo 3.1 Fast

Google has released Veo 3.1 Lite in paid preview through the Gemini API and Google AI Studio, positioning it for high-volume video generation applications.
Google says Veo 3.1 Lite costs less than 50% of Veo 3.1 Fast while generating video at the same speed.
The model supports text-to-video and image-to-video, with 16:9 or 9:16 framing and 720p or 1080p output.
Developers can select 4-second, 6-second, or 8-second video durations, with pricing adjusted by duration.
Google will reduce Veo 3.1 Fast pricing on April 7.
