What is Veo 3.1 in Pictory?

Veo 3.1 is Pictory's premium AI video model, tuned for cinema-grade motion. It sits inside AI Studio at 20 credits per second, and it is the top tier of Pictory's three-model video lineup. Pick it for hero clips, brand-campaign centrepieces, and any shot that has to carry the whole video.

How much does Veo 3.1 cost per clip?

Veo 3.1 costs 20 credits per second. A 5-second clip runs 100 credits, an 8-second clip runs 160 credits, and a 10-second clip runs 200 credits. That makes it Pictory's most expensive video model. Veo 3.1 Fast costs 10 credits per second, and Pixverse costs 1.6 credits per second.

When should I pick Veo 3.1 over Veo 3.1 Fast?

Pick Veo 3.1 when the shot has to be the hero of the video. It is suited to brand-campaign centrepieces, product money shots, cinematic openers, and any clip where the motion itself has to sell the story. For mid-tier scenes and product motion shots, Veo 3.1 Fast at 10 credits per second is more efficient.

What clip lengths does Veo 3.1 support?

You can generate 5, 8, or 10-second clips with Veo 3.1. Pick the length before you generate. Because Veo 3.1 costs 20 credits per second, a 5-second clip runs 100 credits and a 10-second clip runs 200 credits. Match the length to the shot's purpose so you are not paying for seconds you will not use.

What aspect ratios does Veo 3.1 support?

Veo 3.1 generates clips in 16:9, which fits landscape video projects out of the box. If you are building a vertical or square video, you can crop or reposition the generated clip inside Pictory's video editor.

Is Veo 3.1 free to try?

You can try Veo 3.1 on Pictory's free plan. Starting a free trial takes under a minute and does not require a credit card. Because Veo 3.1 is Pictory's most expensive video model at 20 credits per second, many creators iterate their prompt with Pixverse first, then run the final version through Veo 3.1 once the shot is locked.
