Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash builds on the previous Omni 1.1 release by extending native clip length from 10 seconds to 15 seconds and adding multi-turn conversational editing. Google says the model holds reference details—faces, garments, packaging typography, and brand colors—more consistently across camera angles, which it illustrates with a virtual try-on sequence that keeps a model's identity and each garment's cut and drape intact.
The pricing change is paired with a workflow that Google says keeps costs down: users can draft at 360p or 720p, fix a detail with a follow-up edit rather than re-generating the entire clip, and then upscale the best creations to 1080p or 4K. This is the first time Gemini Omni is generally available, backed by Google Cloud's enterprise-grade infrastructure and security, with outputs carrying an imperceptible SynthID watermark.
Google notes that development is ongoing to improve fast sports action, rapid script changes, and complex physics. The model is positioned for businesses, developers, and creators producing videos at scale, and Google says it is already being used by businesses, startups, and creatives in their workflows.
