What is Veo3.1 Video 4K?
**Veo3.1 Video 4K** is a video generation model available through UniAll AI with the public model id **`veo3.1-video-4k`**. It is designed for short, high-resolution AI video outputs and supports multiple production workflows, including text-to-video, image-to-video, first/last frame generation, reference-image guided video, and video-to-video extension or editing.
The API is asynchronous, which makes it suitable for product pipelines, creative tools, marketing automation, and batch content workflows where video generation may take longer than a standard synchronous request.
Core capabilities
Veo3.1 Video 4K supports:
- **Text to video**: generate a clip from a written prompt.
- **Image to video**: animate or transform a reference image.
- **First/last frame control**: guide the beginning and ending frames of the generated video.
- **Reference images**: use 2–3 reference images to influence style, subject, or composition.
- **Video to video**: edit, continue, or transform a source video.
- **Optional audio generation**: enable audio when supported by the selected resolution/audio option.
- **Aspect ratios**: `16:9` and `9:16`.
- **Durations**: 4, 6, or 8 seconds.
- **Output resolutions**: 720p, 1080p, or 4K.
Who should use it?
This model is useful for teams that need high-quality AI video generation through an API rather than a manual-only interface. Common users include:
- Creative studios producing concept clips, mood films, or pitch visuals.
- Marketing teams creating product reveals, social ads, and vertical short videos.
- E-commerce teams generating product motion shots from still images.
- App developers adding AI video generation to SaaS tools.
- Automation teams building content workflows with asynchronous video jobs.
For faster or lower-cost drafts, teams may compare 4K output with 720p, 1080p, or fast variants. For final visual assets where detail matters, the 4K option is the stronger fit.
API usage overview
Endpoint:
```http POST /v1/videos/generations ```
The request is async. Use `model: "veo3.1-video-4k"` and choose a `generation_mode` based on your input type.
Example: text to video
```json { "model": "veo3.1-video-4k", "generation_mode": "text_to_video", "prompt": "A cinematic product reveal of a matte black smartwatch on a reflective surface, soft studio lighting, slow camera push-in.", "duration": 8, "aspect_ratio": "16:9", "resolution": "4k", "generate_audio": true } ```
Example: image to video
```json { "model": "veo3.1-video-4k", "generation_mode": "reference_image_to_video", "prompt": "Animate the product with a smooth rotating camera move, premium commercial lighting, realistic reflections.", "image_url": "https://example.com/product.png", "duration": 6, "aspect_ratio": "16:9", "resolution": "4k" } ```
Supported generation modes
| Mode | Use case | Key inputs | |---|---|---| | `text_to_video` | Generate from a prompt | `prompt` | | `reference_image_to_video` | Animate one image | `prompt`, `image_url` | | `reference_media_to_video` | Generate with reference media | `prompt`, optional reference fields | | `first_last_frame` | Control start and end frames | `prompt`, `first_image_url`, `last_image_url` | | `video_to_video` | Edit or extend video | `prompt`, `video_url` |
Accepted image formats include PNG, JPEG, and WebP. Accepted source video formats include MP4, QuickTime, and WebM.
Pricing angle
UniAll AI lists Veo3.1 Video 4K with second-based billing. For the 4K option, the displayed user price is **$0.272 per second** without audio and **$0.408 per second** with audio. Actual cost depends on selected duration, resolution, and whether audio is enabled.
Example estimates:
- 4-second 4K video without audio: about **$1.088**.
- 8-second 4K video without audio: about **$2.176**.
- 8-second 4K video with audio: about **$3.264**.
Failed generations are marked as refundable when failure conditions apply. Pricing can change, so developers should check the live UniAll AI model page or API pricing response before production use.
Implementation tips
- Use detailed prompts with subject, motion, camera movement, lighting, and style.
- Use first/last frame mode when you need stronger narrative or transition control.
- Use 9:16 for short-form platforms and 16:9 for ads, web, and presentations.
- Start with 720p or 1080p for iteration, then switch to 4K for final outputs.
- Treat the API as async: submit the job, poll or receive the result, then store the generated asset in your workflow.
