Agentic video understanding is a new Gemini processing mode (3.7 Flash, 3.6 Flash, 3.5 Flash-Lite) that lets the model decide what to watch, at what speed, and through which modality, instead of a fixed frame rate. Cuts tokens by up to 88%, cost by up to 66%, boosts accuracy up to 7%, biggest wins on long-form video. Live now via Gemini API in AI Studio and Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, just set processing to "agentic," standard pricing, no extra fee.

Could you build this?
No This is a foundational multimodal model capability developed by Google DeepMind that dynamically processes video inputs via agentic sampling algorithms integrated directly into frontier LLM training and inference runtimes.
What it would actually take: Developing agentic video understanding requires training multimodal frontier foundation models with reinforcement learning and specialized tokenizers capable of tool-augmented dynamic sampling (temporal skipping, frame-rate modulation, and audio-visual attention). It demands thousands of TPUs/GPUs, massive proprietary video datasets, and a world-class AI research and systems engineering team.
