Over the past couple of years, we’ve seen AI explode in popularity, with big names like Google, Microsoft, and even Apple trying to capitalize on it. With that said, it hasn’t been easy, but we’re getting to the point where there are now true leaders in the space, with companies like OpenAI and Google offering some truly unique tools that make the power of AI accessible.

While getting clever and genuinely informative answers to prompts is a fun experience, being able to see the true power of AI is what really gets most people excited. OpenAI’s Sora was first shown off towards the end of last year, receiving quite a big reaction, and now we’re seeing something similar with Google’s Veo.

A cheaper way to access Veo 3

Some are even saying that Veo 3 might even be in a league of its own, producing impressive video clips that look and sound really good. Of course, not many have had the chance to really mess with the technology, as it previously required a subscription to Google AI Ultra, which costs $250 per month.

Luckily, that’s now changed, with Veo 3 access coming to the Google AI Pro tier, which is just $20 per month (via 9to5Google). In addition to Veo 3, users will gain access to model 2.5 Pro and Deep Research when using Gemini, along with Google’s AI filmmaking tool, Flow. The brand also throws in AI tools that will be available in some of its more popular products and services, along with 2TB of storage across its platform and services.

For the most part, not a bad way to experiment with some powerful AI tools. If you’re not quite sure, you can always sign up to try a month of service for free. The Google AI plans are now available to people in 70 countries and regions. You can check the list to see if it is available for your area.

If not, you’ll have to be a little more patient as it will eventually roll out to more areas in the near future. With that said, we’re sure to see even more enhancements arrive to Google’s AI projects in 2025. And we should see more brands pushing AI forward as well.
