The recent Google AI push has brought a whole bunch of new features that were unimaginable before. Along with a major push on agentic features, Google are trying their best to make video editing more accessible to everyone. During their recent Google I/O 2026, they announced the new Gemini Omni model, marking Google’s most aggressive move into the AI video creation space. It goes head-to-head with Adobe’s Firefly, a popular AI video editing tool in the market. Let’s take a look at how it works and how you can use it for yourself.

What Is Gemini Omni
First and foremost, what exactly is Gemini Omni? Well, it combines Gemini’s capabilities with generative tools to create video from text, images, audio, and video inputs.
It’s the first model in the family, and it’s called Gemini Omni Flash. What makes Gemini Omni different is its focus on multimodal prompting. So instead of relying only on a written prompt, you can combine text, images, video clips, and audio references to guide the final result. Compared to traditional video editing, it works much differently, and it will surely give some unique results.
How it works
The biggest difference when compared to traditional AI video tools is how editing actually happens. Unlike older tools that only take text, Omni allows you to mix and match inputs as prompts. You can feed it an image reference, an audio track, and a rough text prompt all at once, after which it will combine them into a single video.
If you find that the clip isn’t perfect, you simply chat with the AI to change specific parts of the clip, too. A large part of the video remains consistent across scenes, while the edits retain context from earlier prompts, and videos can be modified without restarting the creative process.
Who can access it and how
Gemini Omni Flash is rolling out globally to Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers and will also become available on YouTube Shorts and YouTube Create. Indian users can access it via the Gemini app. Meanwhile, the developer API access is coming in the next few weeks, and the pricing is yet to be confirmed.
