What is Google Flow?
Google Flow is a creative studio in which video and images are produced with Google's generative models. Three model families are presented: Gemini Omni, which creates and edits video from text, image or video references; Veo 3.1, a video model with native audio; and Nano Banana, for image generation and editing. An agent built on Gemini follows the project and helps explore and revise ideas. Edits are requested in plain language and can be applied across a whole project. Users can also build small tools by describing them, then share or remix them; examples on the site include a video resizer, animated type overlays, a layered image editor and a storyboard builder. Access starts free with a Google Account and expands with Google AI subscription tiers, each carrying a credit allowance.
