# Gemini 3.7 Flash

Google · released 2026-08-13 · proprietary

 $0.750 per million tokens, balanced Balanced Summarise Chat Code gen Agentic

## Nothing is both better and cheaper.

Under a balanced workload, no other model in the catalogue scores higher *and* costs less. This model is on the value frontier.

The same model via **batch** is 50% cheaper ($0.375/M) — same weights, different latency.

## Our take

 editorial — not a measurement

The best-value Google model right now, but only until 31 December 2026. It is $0.75/$3.75 on promotional pricing that Google has explicitly dated: on 1 January 2027 it becomes $1.50/$7.50, a 100% increase already on the published schedule. Anyone building a cost model on today's rate needs to plan for the doubling. LMArena 1490 at high effort is remarkable for a Flash-tier model — that beats Gemini 3.1 Pro's 1486. Note OpenRouter lists this at $0.375/$1.875, which is Google's batch rate, so aggregator data disagrees with the vendor here.

### Strengths

 - LMArena 1490 at high effort — outscores Gemini 3.1 Pro
- $0.75/$3.75 promotional, cheap for the capability
- Full multimodal input including audio and video
- 1M+ context, 50% batch discount

### Weaknesses

 - Price doubles to $1.50/$7.50 on 2027-01-01 — already scheduled
- OpenRouter's listed rate conflicts with Google's own page
- Context caching storage fees apply as with all Gemini models

### Reach for it when

 - High-volume multimodal work through 2026
- Cheap access to near-Pro quality

### Avoid it if

 - You are committing to a multi-year cost model
- You need pricing stability past 2026

### Every price dimension

| Input | $0.375 /M |
| --- | --- |
| Output | $1.88 /M |
| Cached input | $0.037 /M |
| Cache write | $0.021 /M |
| Reasoning | $1.88 /M |
| Web search | $0.014 /call |
| Batch discount | 50% |

**Reasoning tokens are billed separately** at $1.88/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 | 56 |
| --- | --- |
| Coding | 76.1 |
| Agentic | 45.1 |
| LMArena Elo | 1490.2 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.
