Try Google Veo 3 without paying and arm and a leg

07.08.2025 04:22 PM - By Brian S. Pauls

In May, Google released their Veo 3 AI model for generating video and accompanying audio (in addition to music, this includes "dialogue, sound effects, and ambient noise.")


At nearly $250.00/month, a Google AI Ultra subscription may be pricey for the small business owner who just wants to experiment with video. But Amanda Caswell at Tom's Guide has a more cost effective option. For less than $13.00/month, you can get access to Canva's "Create a Video Clip" feature, running on--you guessed it--Veo 3. While Canva Pro comes with a mere five videos a month, that may be enough for small business marketing purposes. And if not, it's a low-risk way to confirm you need more.
