No plan needed: 14 credits / second at 720p with sound, on every account including pay-as-you-go. ## At a glance | | | | --- | --- | | Price | 14 credits / second at 720p with sound · 1080p costs more · silent costs less | | Length | 4, 6 or 8 seconds | | Resolution | 720p (default) · 1080p | | Formats | 16:9 · 9:16 | | Sound | Native — dialogue, ambience and effects · Soundtrack toggle | | Inputs | Text · start frame · end frame · negative prompt · seed — cast and elements ride as text | | Access | Every account, including pay-as-you-go | | Content | Moderated upstream — SFW work only | ## What Veo 3.1 Lite is for Lite puts Veo's native audio within reach of any account: a talking-head line, a product beat with its sound, an ambient loop with real room tone. It is also the cheapest place to test a Veo sound prompt before rendering it on Fast or 3.1 — the prompts carry over. ## How to prompt it - Name what we hear as precisely as what we see, and keep dialogue short, in quotes, after the speaker. - No reference pictures on Lite: describe your cast concretely, or set a start frame of the character for an exact face — then describe only the motion. - Use an end frame to land on a precise last image, such as a final pose or a product shot. - Put what should not appear in the Avoid field rather than in the prompt. - Turn the soundtrack off for B-roll: silent clips cost less per second. ## Where it sits in the Veo family Veo 3.1 Fast (from Hobby) and Veo 3.1 (from Creator) add up to three reference pictures for identity, with the same lengths and controls. Among the engines that need no plan, Lite is the Veo; Seedance 2.0 Mini adds reference pictures and a voice sample, Wan 3.0 is the long-clip engine, and Motion One is the uncensored one. ## Starting points - **Talking-head hook** — A woman in a bright home studio looks into the camera and says "Three things nobody tells you about moving abroad," soft key light, gentle push-in, quiet room tone - **Porch in the storm** — A cabin porch in a summer storm, rain hammering the tin roof and dripping from the eaves, a rocking chair creaking in the wind, static wide shot, dusk light - **Needle drop** — Macro close-up of a vinyl record spinning as the needle lands with a soft crackle, warm lamp light, shallow depth of field ## FAQ ### Do I need a plan for Veo 3.1 Lite?
