# Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite

Google · released 2026-07-21 · proprietary

 $0.850 per million tokens, balanced Balanced Summarise Chat Code gen Agentic

## Gemini 3.7 Flash is both better and cheaper.

It scores **+18.6** higher and costs **12% less** ($0.750/M against $0.850/M) on this workload — and it does everything this model does.

[DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731](/models/deepseek__deepseek-v4-flash-0731) is cheaper still (88% less) but drops no image, video, file, audio input.

The same model via **batch** is 50% cheaper ($0.425/M) — same weights, different latency.

### Every price dimension

| Input | $0.300 /M |
| --- | --- |
| Output | $2.50 /M |
| Cached input | $0.030 /M |
| Cache write | $0.083 /M |
| Reasoning | $2.50 /M |
| Web search | $0.014 /call |
| Batch discount | 50% |

**Reasoning tokens are billed separately** at $2.50/M, on top of output. On a reasoning-heavy workload this can be 40% of the bill and it does not appear in the advertised price.

### Independent scores

| Intelligence | 37.4 |
| --- | --- |
| Coding | 49.3 |
| Agentic | 27.2 |
| LMArena Elo | 1436.5 default |

Sources are listed separately rather than averaged. Across the 62 models both have scored they correlate at r = 0.806 — close agreement overall, but four models rank very differently between them, and a blended score would hide exactly those.

### Capability

| Context window | 1.0M |
| --- | --- |
| Max output | 66K |
| Input modes | text, image, video, file, audio |
| Tool use | yes |
