Google: Veo 3.1 Fast
google/veo-3.1-fast
Our take
AI-assisted analysis based on the sources below. Suitability is an editorial assessment; test it on your own workload.
According to its OpenRouter catalog entry, google/veo-3.1-fast is a Google video generation model positioned as a mid-tier option balancing speed and quality. The catalog reports that it accepts text or image prompts and outputs video with natively synchronized audio, and the provider description claims faster turnaround than Veo 3.1. Generation controls such as seed and temperature are listed as supported parameters. No independent model card was available in this source pack, and no benchmark results were included, so its capabilities remain source-reported rather than measured.[1]
Strengths
Limitations
- Evidence is limited to a single OpenRouter catalog entry; no independent model card was available in this source pack, so claims are unverified.[1]
- No benchmark results or technical specifications such as duration, resolution, or frame-rate limits are documented, so quality claims need workload validation.[1]
- Described as a mid-tier trade-off between speed and quality, but the degree of compromise relative to the full Veo 3.1 is not quantified.[1]
Where to use it
- Rapid draft or prototype video clips from text prompts where turnaround may matter more than maximum fidelity.[1]
- Image-to-video animation with accompanying audio for short-form content experiments.[1]
- Iterating on prompt variations using seed and temperature controls for more reproducible comparisons.[1]

Tasks and capabilities
A grade appears only where the source supplies a matching measurement for that task, the model is active and the cohort holds at least 10 comparable models. The capability column lists facts the source declares — supported formats, reasoning and tool parameters — which are not measured quality.
| Task | Grade | Source-declared capability |
|---|---|---|
| General quality | No measurement | — |
| Coding | No measurement | — |
| Agents | No measurement | — |

How grades work
Each letter grade compares a model only against other models scored by the same source and metric in the current snapshot. S means the top 10%, A the next 20%, B the next 30%, C the rest. Models without a published measurement are shown as not rated — a supported format alone never implies measured quality.
- S — S — top 10% of the cohort
- A — A — next 20% of the cohort
- B — B — next 30% of the cohort
- C — C — below the B band
