# Gemini 3.6 Flash

Google · released 2026-07-21 · proprietary

 $1.50 per million tokens, balanced Balanced Summarise Chat Code gen Agentic

## Gemini 3.7 Flash is both better and cheaper.

It scores **+4.4** higher and costs **50% less** ($0.750/M against $1.50/M) on this workload — and it does everything this model does.

[DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731](/models/deepseek__deepseek-v4-flash-0731) is cheaper still (93% less) but drops no image, video, file, audio input.

The same model via **batch** is 50% cheaper ($0.750/M) — same weights, different latency.

### Every price dimension

| Input | $0.750 /M |
| --- | --- |
| Output | $3.75 /M |
| Cached input | $0.075 /M |
| Cache write | $0.042 /M |
| Reasoning | $3.75 /M |
| Web search | $0.014 /call |
| Batch discount | 50% |

**Reasoning tokens are billed separately** at $3.75/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 | 51.6 |
| --- | --- |
| Coding | 69.2 |
| Agentic | 40.5 |
| LMArena Elo | 1476.5 high |

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.
