Gemini 3.5 Flash

gemini-3.5-flash

Gemini 3.5 Flash is Google's high-efficiency multimodal model, delivering near-Pro level performance in coding and reasoning at Flash-tier speed and cost. It supports text, image, video, audio, and PDF inputs, making it well suited for diverse multimodal workflows. Optimized for coding proficiency and parallel agentic execution, the model defaults to medium thinking effort for faster, cost-efficient responses while supporting configurable thinking levels (minimal, low, medium, high) for fine-grained cost–performance control.

Gemini 4 Argon

Gemini 4 Argon is Google's flagship reasoning model, built for complex software engineering, deep mathematical and scientific problem solving, and autonomous multi-step agents. Google trained it to keep context across long, multi-step tasks and to turn long documents mixing text, tables, charts and images into a single grounded output. It leads the Vals Index across finance, legal, coding and tax work, and supports long decode of up to 1M output tokens in a single response.

Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image (Google Vertex AI)

Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image served from Google Vertex AI. Billed per image at US$0.0336. Call it through /v1/chat/completions with stream set to false; the image is returned in the message content as a base64 data URI. Maximum output resolution is 1K. A request for a larger size returns a 1K image with the same aspect ratio at the same price. When a size is reduced, the response carries an X-Image-Resolution-Capped header with the requested and delivered size.

Context: N/A
Input: — (Not priced per input token)
Output: — (Not priced per output token)

Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image (Google AI Studio)

Gemini 3.1 Flash Image (Google Vertex AI)

Gemini 3.1 Flash Image served from Google Vertex AI. Billed per image at US$0.067. Call it through /v1/chat/completions with stream set to false; the image is returned in the message content as a base64 data URI. Maximum output resolution is 2K. A request for a larger size, such as 4K or 4096x4096, returns a 2K image with the same aspect ratio at the same price. When a size is reduced, the response carries an X-Image-Resolution-Capped header with the requested and delivered size, for example 4096x4096->2048x2048.
