Create a Prediction
Send a POST request to create a new prediction. This will return a prediction ID that you'll use to check the result. The request should include your model inputs and API key.
Get Prediction Result
Poll the prediction endpoint with the prediction ID until the result is ready. The API uses long-polling, so you'll need to repeatedly check until you receive a success status.

Overview
veo-3 — Text to Video AI Model
Veo-3, Google's flagship text-to-video model, transforms written descriptions into cinematic 8-second videos with synchronized audio—eliminating the need for traditional video production workflows. Unlike standard text-to-video AI models, veo-3 generates native audio alongside visuals, capturing dialogue, sound effects, and ambient soundscapes that match the visual narrative precisely. This integrated approach solves a critical gap in AI video generation: most competitors require separate audio processing or lack sound generation entirely, forcing creators into post-production workflows. Veo-3 delivers production-ready videos in a single generation pass, making it ideal for developers building AI video generator platforms and creators seeking rapid content iteration.
Technical Specifications
What Sets veo-3 Apart
Native Audio Generation with Semantic Accuracy
Veo-3 generates synchronized dialogue, sound effects, and ambient audio directly within the video output, responding to natural language audio cues embedded in your prompt. This eliminates separate audio synthesis steps and ensures perfect lip-sync and environmental sound matching—a capability that distinguishes veo-3 from competitors offering only visual generation.
Extended Duration and Resolution Control
Generate videos up to 8 seconds at 720p, 1080p, or 4K resolution, with native support for both landscape (16:9) and portrait (9:16) aspect ratios. The 4K capability and vertical format support address mobile-first creators and high-end production workflows that require sharp, platform-optimized output without cropping or quality loss.
Multi-Image Reference Consistency
Use up to three reference images to maintain unwavering character identity, object consistency, and stylistic coherence across every frame—even during complex actions and scene changes. This "Ingredients to Video" approach ensures brand-aligned characters and serialized storytelling at production-ready quality, surpassing single-image animation tools.
Advanced Temporal Control
Specify first and last frames to generate seamless interpolations with authentic motion trajectories, or extend previously generated videos with frame-specific continuity. This frame-level control enables storyboard execution and controlled scene transitions without manual keyframing.
Technical Specifications:
- Duration: 8 seconds per generation
- Resolution: 720p, 1080p, or 4K (4K available for preview models)
- Aspect Ratios: 16:9 (landscape) and 9:16 (portrait/vertical)
- Frame Rate: 24 FPS default
- Audio: Native generation with dialogue, SFX, and ambient sound support
Key Considerations
Video duration is fixed to short clips and cannot be extended beyond a few seconds per run.
Input text is the sole control mechanism; no image, audio, or video input is supported.
Outputs may occasionally contain unnatural object deformations or flickering.
Explicit, graphic, or flagged terms may cause failure or result in blank output.
Abstract prompts may lead to hallucinated or visually ambiguous results.
Real names, brands, or sensitive entities should be avoided in prompts.
Tips & Tricks
How to Use veo-3 on Eachlabs
Access veo-3 through Eachlabs via the Playground for instant experimentation or integrate it into your application using the API. Provide a text prompt describing your scene (including audio cues for dialogue, sound effects, and ambient noise), optionally supply reference images or first/last frames, and specify your desired resolution (720p, 1080p, or 4K) and aspect ratio (16:9 or 9:16). Veo-3 returns fully synchronized audiovisual content ready for immediate use in production workflows, web apps, or social platforms.
Capabilities
Generate short cinematic-style videos from natural language.
Supports descriptions of motion, objects, scenery, and atmosphere.
Capable of handling various themes like nature, futuristic, urban, fantasy, and more.
Supports camera controls like zoom, pan, dolly, and aerial views through language.
What Can I Use It For?
Use Cases for veo-3
Product Marketing and E-Commerce
Marketing teams can generate cinematic product reveals by combining a product image with a text prompt like "Create a single continuous 8-second cinematic product reveal for a premium wireless headphone. 0–3 seconds: Open on a dark, minimalist studio setup with the headphone in soft silhouette. 3–6 seconds: Introduce a slow side-light sweep as the camera gently pushes closer, revealing form and texture. 6–8 seconds: Bring the headphone fully into focus in a clean close-up." Veo-3 renders the complete sequence with synchronized ambient audio, eliminating studio shoots and post-production editing for product videos.
Social Media Content Creation
Creators building content for YouTube Shorts and TikTok leverage veo-3's native 9:16 vertical format to generate full-screen storytelling without cropping or quality degradation. The integrated audio generation enables creators to produce ready-to-publish short-form videos with dialogue and sound design in seconds, accelerating content velocity for social platforms.
Advertising and Narrative Prototyping
Advertising agencies use veo-3's text-to-video capability to rapidly prototype campaign concepts with full scene autonomy—transforming detailed creative briefs into finished 8-second clips with synchronized soundscapes. This workflow powers quick ideation cycles and client previews without waiting for production timelines.
Developers Building AI Video APIs
Developers integrating veo-3 into web applications and production pipelines access Google Cloud infrastructure for scalable, high-quality video generation through the Gemini API or Vertex AI. The model's support for multiple input modes (text, image, reference images, frame interpolation) enables flexible API design for diverse user workflows.
Things to Be Aware Of
Combine camera directions with settings:
“A slow pan across a desert at golden hour”
Mix motion and mood:
“A handheld shot following a child running through a sunflower field in slow motion”
Experiment with time of day and lighting:
“A mountain village at dusk, with lights flickering on and smoke rising from chimneys”
Add genre-based visual tones:
“Cyberpunk city with neon signs and rainy streets, drone footage”
Limitations
Realism may degrade with overly abstract prompts
May generate flickering or frame inconsistencies
No interactive editing or feedback loop — one-shot generation
Prompts involving copyrighted characters or brands may fail
