        "content": "## Veo 3.1 after the Gemini API shutdown\nGoogle turned off the Veo 3.1 preview models in the Gemini API on 22 October 2026 (https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/veo), so workflows built on the **Google Gemini → Generate a video** node stopped working. This is the same workflow on UberLLM: same steps, same output, one key.\n\n### Swap the model names\n| Gemini model | UberLLM model |\n|---|---|\n| `veo-3.1-generate-preview` | `fal-ai/veo3.1` |\n| `veo-3.1-fast-generate-preview` | `fal-ai/veo3.1/fast` |\n| `veo-3.1-lite-generate-preview` | `fal-ai/veo3.1/lite` |\n| Veo 3.1, from a picture | `fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video` (add `image_url`) |\n| Veo 3.1 Fast, from a picture | `fal-ai/veo3.1/fast/image-to-video` (add `image_url`) |\n\n### Move your own workflow\nDelete the Gemini **Generate a video** node and paste the nodes from **Generate Video with Veo** to **Video** in its place. **Video** gives what the Gemini node gave: the file as binary `data`, and `url`. The UberLLM link needs your key, so a step that posts by link (Instagram, Blotato) needs the file uploaded first (Drive, S3), or add `output_upload_url` to the start request.\n\n### Setup (2 minutes)\n1. Get a key at https://uberllm.dev (sign in with your email, add credit).\n2. Open any **UberLLM** HTTP node → Credential → **Create new** → *Header Auth*:\n   - Name: `Authorization`\n   - Value: `Bearer YOUR_UBERLLM_KEY`\n   Every UberLLM node in this workflow uses this one credential.\n3. Edit the **Settings** node, then click **Execute workflow**.\n\n### Price\nVeo 3.1 Fast: $0.1275 per second at 720p with sound → $1.02 for 8 s (price on 2026-10-30; live prices: https://uberllm.dev/fal-api-pricing)\nVeo 3.1: $0.34 per second at 720p with sound → $2.72 for 8 s (price on 2026-10-30; live prices: https://uberllm.dev/fal-api-pricing)\nVeo 3.1 Lite: $0.0425 per second at 720p with sound → $0.34 for 8 s (price on 2026-10-30; live prices: https://uberllm.dev/fal-api-pricing)\n\n### What you pay\n- The job's cost is shown before it starts (`max_cost_usd` on the reply) and held from your balance. It is never billed more than that.\n- A video that fails or runs out of time costs nothing: the whole hold comes back.\n- Credit you buy does not expire while your account is open.\n- No UberLLM fee on requests. Adding credit by card costs 5.5% + $0.50.\n",
