Lyria

Google counts Lyria, its music model, as a frontier model. Tulsee Doshi, Head of Product for Gemini, names Lyria as the music model in Google's gen media portfolio, next to the video and image generation and editing models (Nano Banana). She says all of these count as frontier models, not just Gemini.

The wider portfolio she describes also includes Gemma, the open model family, and audio models for dialogue, audio understanding, text to speech and translation. Separately, she points to Flow (video and music) as one of the new form factors Google is trying for how people engage with models.
