Google launches Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash with native 15-second video and 30% lower price
On November 5, Google launched Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash as generally available on the Gemini API and for business. Native clips stretch to 15 seconds (up from 10 on 1.1), with multi-turn conversational edits, and 720p pricing at $0.07 per second—about 30% below Omni 1.1. My take: short-video pipelines often break on full regenerations that are slow and pricey; turn-by-turn fixes feel closer to real editing. For SMEs making ads, lock character and product references first, then decide whether a pricier model is worth it.
