Why does Lyro list Gemini models before it generates anything?

Because hard-coded model IDs go stale. List Models returns the Gemini and Veo models currently available with their capabilities and limits, and preview Veo models in particular can be unavailable or return no video URI, so Lyro verifies availability and prefers a stable model over a preview name someone wrote down last quarter.

How long does a Veo video generation take?

Typically 30 to 180 seconds, and occasionally up to around twelve minutes. Lyro waits before its first poll and then polls at intervals rather than treating a slow job as a failure, which is why a video request behaves as a background task rather than an instant reply.

Can Lyro tell us what a prompt will cost before it runs?

It can size it. Count Tokens applies Gemini tokenization to the input and returns the token count, which is what you need for estimating cost and for checking a long input against a model's limit before the generation call is made.

What happens when a Gemini video or image job comes back empty?

An operation marked done with no video file means the safety filter rejected it, and the reason is reported in the response rather than guessed at, so the prompt is revised and a fresh job started - a failed operation name is never reused. Heavy concurrency returns 429 RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED, so Lyro backs off instead of retrying immediately.

Gemini MCP integration

Generates text, speech, images, and Veo video from a prompt, embeds text for semantic search, and counts tokens before a call is made.

How businesses use Gemini + Lyro

Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Gemini actions Lyro runs to close it.

Draft text or speech audio from a prompt
Lyro checks which Flash and Pro models are currently available, counts the tokens in the input, then generates the text or text-to-speech output with the parameters the request calls for.
List Models (Gemini API)Count Tokens (Gemini)Generate Content (Gemini)
Produce an image from a description
Lyro generates the image with the model that suits the job, from fast stable output to the 4K preview model that accepts reference images, and stores the returned URL immediately because those links expire.
Generate Image (Nano Banana)List Models (Gemini API)
Run a Veo video job through to the file
Lyro starts the video generation, holds the returned operation name unaltered, and polls until the job completes, validating that a video URL actually came back before treating the render as finished.
Generate Videos (Veo)Wait And Download Video (Veo)List Models (Gemini API)
Turn your own text into searchable vectors
Lyro converts text into embeddings for semantic search, similarity comparison, clustering, or classification, and counts the tokens first so a large corpus is costed before the run starts.

How it works

Get started in 3 steps

Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Gemini actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.

01
Connect Gemini
Authorize the Gemini account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
02
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Gemini actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
03
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.
