Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash vs MiniMax Video API

Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash 45

Model reading for gemini-omni-1.2-flash on the Gemini API. Platform facts are the Gemini API listing's (gemini-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Status page at aistudio.google.com/status with no readable components or history (10 of 20) and no readable incident record (5 of 30). Platform rate-limit tiers; the public rate-limit page has no Omni 1.2 row (5 of 15). Backoff guidance for 429 and 503 and SDK retries (15). No SLA read for the Gemini API route, and the Omni guide says provisioned throughput isn't supported there; Google's post puts it on Google Cloud (0). Google's post of 5 November says generally available, and the SDK commit marks the model GA (10). 10 + 5 + 5 + 15 + 0 + 10 = 45.

MiniMax Video API 75

Atlassian Statuspage at status.minimax.io with a Video Generation component (20). Its incident history pages, read on 2 November, cover the whole 90 days from 4 August. One incident touched video. Elevated errors on Video Generation from 06:10 on 8 September to 01:55 UTC on 9 September, about 20 hours, labelled major, on the Video Generation component. The page says only "Elevated errors" and "We are currently investigating this issue", with no full outage stated, so it reads as partial, as argyle's and the earlier elevated-error incidents were read. The 1 October and 10 October checks couldn't read before 13 September. Every other incident in the window is on the LLM or Text-to-Speech components. Minor only (20). The rate-limits page lists 300 requests a minute and 30 tasks in flight for MiniMax-H3 on Video Generation V2, and 20 a minute for Hailuo (15). The OpenAPI file documents 429 for rate limits, and the error-code page says to retry later for code 1002, with no Retry-After or backoff guidance found. Failed and moderated jobs aren't charged on packages (10). No SLA found (0). The H3 models carry no preview label (10). 20+20+15+10+0+10 = 75.

Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash 69

Model reading for gemini-omni-1.2-flash on the Gemini API. Platform facts are the Gemini API listing's (gemini-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Called through the Interactions API, which the platform's Discovery document doesn't type; the SDK's generated Interactions types list the model (10 of 25). llms.txt with Markdown twins (10). The Omni guide, read on 11 November, covers Omni 1.1 Flash on the same API and lists what isn't supported (system instructions, temperature, negative prompts, audio references, YouTube sources) and the regional limits; it doesn't name 1.2 (16 of 20). Aspect ratio (16:9 or 9:16), resolution (360p, 720p, 1080p, 4k) and delivery are enumerated; length is set in the prompt, not a field (10 of 15). REST and SDK examples; a failed generation sets the file state to FAILED, and other error codes aren't documented beyond the platform's page (8 of 15). Dated SDK and platform changelogs (15). 10 + 10 + 16 + 10 + 8 + 15 = 69.

MiniMax Video API 96

OpenAPI 3.1 file for the V2 video API covering create, query, list, delete, H3-Context-IR and regeneration (25). llms.txt on the platform docs (10). Long descriptions on every endpoint and field, including which references each model accepts and how many (17). Required fields and enums for model, resolution and ratio, a 4 to 15 second duration range, typed content items. The duration enum doesn't say H3-Max starts at 5 (14). Examples for text, image, reference and regeneration requests, and documented 400, 401, 402, 422, 429 and 500 responses with typed error bodies (15). Versioned V1 and V2 paths and a dated model release page (15).

Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash 83

Model reading for gemini-omni-1.2-flash on the Gemini API. Platform facts are the Gemini API listing's (gemini-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Released and generally available on 5 November 2026; the SDKs added it to the Interactions model list on 10 November (30). Deprecations with earliest dates and no stated minimum notice (4 of 12). Churn in Google's video line: every Veo model on the Gemini API shut down by 22 October, and from 3 December 2026 requests to Omni 1.1 Flash are routed to 1.2 Flash and billed at its rates, four weeks after this release (4 of 8). Dated SDK and platform changelogs (15). SDK replies not sampled (5 of 10). Current SDKs in five languages (15). Runtimes stated (10). 30 + 4 + 4 + 15 + 5 + 15 + 10 = 83.

MiniMax Video API 57

Model reading. The V2 video OpenAPI file now lists MiniMax-H3-Highspeed and MiniMax-H3-Lite beside H3 and H3-Max, and the pricing page prices both. Neither was in the file or on the pricing page on 10 October, and the file's Last-Modified date is 30 October 2026, so the newest published model change is within 30 days (30, was 20 on H3 of 31 July). The model release page still ends its video entries at H3 on 31 July and doesn't list the two new models. Hailuo 2.3, 2.3-Fast and 02 stay callable as legacy. No deprecation policy or dated video retirements found (10). A dated release page and a support channel through the platform (12). No official SDK for video. The official MCP server's source is at 0.0.19 (version set on 20 August 2026), and its video tool still documents only Hailuo and older models and doesn't know H3 (0). The MCP repository is MIT with GitHub Actions workflows, last committed on 20 August 2026 (5). 30+10+12+0+5 = 57.

Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash 54

Read on the lines the Veo listing used for video models. Model reading for gemini-omni-1.2-flash on the Gemini API. Platform facts are the Gemini API listing's (gemini-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Per the Omni guide (written for 1.1 on the same API), the video comes back in the response, inline as base64 or as a Google-hosted file to poll until ACTIVE with delivery uri for outputs over 4 MB (12 of 15). No callback (0 of 10). Resolution, aspect ratio and delivery control output size, and edits run turn by turn through previous_interaction_id without regenerating from scratch (10). No list of past jobs found (0 of 10). Standard Google error statuses on the platform, with FAILED as the only Omni-specific state (12 of 14). No idempotency key, and whether failed generations are billed isn't stated (5 of 20). Only model and input are required, with 720p and 16:9 as defaults, and SDKs in five languages plus the CLI (15). 12 + 0 + 10 + 0 + 12 + 5 + 15 = 54.

MiniMax Video API 76

Task objects are small and carry a download URL, and callback_url removes polling (25). Resolution, ratio and duration control output size, and GET /v2/query/video_generation lists tasks with pagination and filters (20). Typed errors with a request id, 402 for an empty balance and 422 for blocked content, which an agent can act on (18). No idempotency key found. Failed and moderated jobs aren't charged on packages and tasks can be cancelled with DELETE (10). Four required fields on create and no official SDK, only the MCP packages (3).
