Google’s Veo 3.1 Lite Cuts API Costs in Half as OpenAI’s Sora Exits the Market

Google just cut Veo 3.1 API prices across

the board today (April 7).

Lite tier is now $0.05/sec — less than half

the cost of Fast. Timing is interesting given

OpenAI killed Sora last week after burning

~$15M/day with only $2.1M total revenue.

Google now basically owns the AI video API

space with no real competitor left standing.
