What is the Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video API?

Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video is a Google model for video generation from images, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Google Veo 3.1 Lite Image-to-Video transforms static images into high-fidelity 720p or 1080p videos with natively generated audio. Supports many interpolation use cases, landscape and portrait aspect ratios, and customizable duration. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to "completed", then read the output URL from the result. The playground generates a ready-to-paste code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for whatever inputs you've set. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/google/google-veo3.1-lite-image-to-video.

How much does Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video cost per run?

Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video starts at $0.30 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video accept?

Key inputs: `prompt`, `image`, `aspect_ratio`, `resolution`, `duration`, `seed`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/google/google-veo3.1-lite-image-to-video.

How do I get started with the Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video API?

Sign up for a free WaveSpeedAI account to claim starter credits, copy your API key from /accesskey, then call the endpoint shown in the API tab of the playground. The playground also auto-generates a code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for the parameters you've set.

Can I use Veo3.1 Lite Image To Video outputs commercially?
