Get started with Google Flow

For the best experience, we recommend using Google Flow on a desktop computer with a Chromium-based browser, such as Google Chrome.

While Google Flow may work on other browsers and mobile devices, they are not yet fully optimized. You may encounter bugs or unexpected behavior on unsupported browsers. We are working to improve the experience on other browsers and mobile devices.

• Model costs are evolving fast. You can find the latest costs in the product when you select a model. In your prompt box, at the top right, click Settings .

• We offer two tiers of models (Fast, Quality), but some features only exist for certain models.

• You can check the model and related credit costs in settings before confirming.

• All outputs generated in Google Flow using Veo and Imagen include invisible SynthID watermarks. SynthID identifies AI-generated content by embedding digital watermarks directly into AI-generated content.
• To further help you identify AI-generated content, videos generated in Google One Free, Plus, and Pro tiers contain a visible watermark that indicates the content is made with Veo. Videos generated in the Google One Ultra tier contain a visible watermark if required by local regulations.

• To balance the available resources for all users and prevent abuse of our platform, we may rate-limit the number of generations you can make, particularly for zero-credit models.
• After you've made a large number of generations in a day, the number of generations you can make within a minute will decrease.
• We're constantly tuning these limits to try and offer the best experience possible within our constraints.

• We want the Google Flow experience to be fun and safe. Therefore, we prohibit users from knowingly generating harmful, illegal, or inappropriate content.
• For example, Google Flow features precautions to protect minors and uploaded photos of people, and certain queries might not be generated.
• Find more details about content categories and our policies in our Generative AI Prohibited Use Policy.
• If you’re facing difficulties or getting blocked in unexpected ways, send us your feedback.

If a "Pending" or error card persists, check the top right corner for system notifications. If a generation fails due to policy or credit limits, the generation may require a manual retry or deletion.

If a content generation fails with a message "We noticed some unusual activity":

• Retry after a couple of minutes.
• Disable VPNs or proxies.
