Verification of Veo (Video Generation) Feature Data

1. Pricing Tier Availability

Status: PARTIALLY INCORRECT

Your stored data lists "Google AI Plus" as a plan option, but the search results reference "Google AI Pro" and "Google AI Ultra" instead[3]. Here's what the current data shows:

• Free: ❌ Not available[3]
• Google AI Pro: ✅ Available with full access to Veo 3.1[3]
• Google AI Ultra: ✅ Available (mentioned as having access to video generation)[3]
• Workspace add-on: ⚠️ Limited access to Veo 3.1 avatars in Google Vids[6]

Your stored entry for "AI Pro" with "Veo 3.1 via Gemini app and Flow" is correct[3]. However, you should verify whether "Google AI Plus" exists as a current plan name, as it does not appear in the search results.

2. Platform/Surface Availability

Status: MOSTLY CORRECT with clarifications needed

The search results confirm availability on most platforms you've listed[2][3]:

• Windows: ✅ Correct (web-based via gemini.google.com)[3]
• macOS: ✅ Correct (web-based)[3]
• Linux: ❌ Correct (no mention of support)
• iOS: ✅ Correct (Gemini app)[3]
• Android: ✅ Correct (Gemini app)[3]
• Web: ✅ Correct (gemini.google.com and Flow)[3]
• API: ✅ Correct (Gemini API with model codes veo-3.1-generate-preview and veo-3.1-fast-generate-preview)[2]
• Chrome and Terminal: No data in search results to confirm or contradict your "❌" status

3. Current Status

Status: CORRECT

The feature is GA (generally available)[2][3]. The search results reference "Veo 3.1" as the current stable model with preview variants also available[2].

4. Access Gating

Status: CORRECT

The feature is paid-only[3]. It requires either a Google AI Pro or Google AI Ultra subscription, with no free tier access[3].

5. Regional Availability

Status: CANNOT VERIFY

The search results do not contain information about regional restrictions or country-specific limitations. Your stored note about "supported regions where Gemini is available" and "some features limited in EU" cannot be confirmed or contradicted by these results.

6. Official URL

Status: CORRECT

The official product page is **https://gemini.google.com/overview/video-generation/**[3], which matches the search results and appears active.

7. Recent Changes

Status: SIGNIFICANT UPDATES DETECTED

Recent updates include:

• January 2026: Veo 3.1 and Veo 3.1 Fast Preview models were released with new capabilities including portrait videos, video extension, frame-specific generation, and image-based direction[2]
• February 2026: Google released significant improvements to Gemini and Veo benefiting video creators[4]
• Upcoming (May 19-20, 2026): Google I/O 2026 is expected to feature additional Gemini and Veo updates, with predicted improvements including higher resolution outputs (4K), longer single-clip duration, and better motion physics[1]

Your stored data does not reflect these recent January-February 2026 updates or the upcoming May announcements.
