New Video Models — Google Veo 3.1
The video tab gets a major upgrade: Google Veo 3.1 is now the flagship video model family in Veras. Pick the tier that fits your job:
- Veo 3.1 — highest quality, resolutions up to 4K
- Veo 3.1 Fast — faster, lower-cost generation with the same features
- Veo 3.1 Lite — the most cost-effective tier, up to 1080p
All three support text-to-video (no source image needed), image-to-video from any source image, and first + last frame animation — set a starting and an ending frame and Veo animates the transition between them. Add reference images to steer characters, objects, or style, choose 4, 6, or 8 second durations, and get native audio generated with every video (with a one-click “No audio” toggle when you want silence).
Wan 2.2 remains available in the model dropdown for existing workflows.

NOTE: Choose between Veo 3.1, Veo 3.1 Fast, and Veo 3.1 Lite — each shows its credit cost right in the dropdown
NOTE: Give Veo a start frame and an ending frame, and it animates the journey between them
3D Viewer in the Video Tab
The 3D viewer now works inside the video tab — the 2D/3D toggle is no longer limited to still images. Even better, there’s a brand new “3D Viewer” source option: point your video’s start frame (or ending frame) directly at the loaded 3D model, frame the shot with the viewer camera, and the live snapshot feeds straight into the render.
- Use the 3D Viewer as the Start and/or Last frame of a video — frame two different camera angles and let Veo animate between them
- Use it as the Source Image for still renders and as a reference image
- Each frame keeps its own frozen snapshot, while the active frame tracks your camera live
- Available wherever the 3D viewer exists: Revit, Rhino, SketchUp, and the web app
NOTE: Frame your 3D model in the viewer and use the live snapshot as a video frame — no exporting screenshots
Show Original for Video Renders
The Show Original button now works on video renders. Press it to see the source image behind any video — the same one-click compare you already use on still renders. Source images are carried with the video render itself, so Show Original keeps working when you come back to a video from the gallery or another machine.
NOTE: Toggle between a video render and its original source frame with one click
More Improvements
- Video renders are more reliable — status checks now ride out transient backend hiccups instead of failing mid-render with “Failed to check video status”
- 3D camera restore — loading a 3D render from the gallery now restores its camera position, even in a new session or on a different machine
- Show Original keeps your zoom/pan — toggling no longer resets the view, and the source stays aligned with the render
- Fixed Show Original with Rotate Image renders
- Upload image on every platform — the manual upload button is now available in all design integrations, not just the web app
- Style chips no longer appear wrongly selected when switching between image and video modes
- Fixed prev/next navigation when using a rendered image as a reference image
- Preview refreshes from the host app no longer override your selected source image
- Security updates for third-party dependencies
