 $1.56 per million tokens, balanced Balanced Summarise Chat Code gen Agentic

## Gemini 3.7 Flash is both better and cheaper.

It scores **+18.1** higher and costs **52% less** ($0.750/M against $1.56/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, file input.

### Every price dimension

| Input | $1.25 /M |
| --- | --- |
| Output | $2.50 /M |
| Cached input | $0.200 /M |
| Web search | $0.005 /call |

**Past 200,000 tokens the price changes.** Input goes to $2.50/M (2×) and output to $5.00/M. The headline rate does not apply to a long-context workload.

### Independent scores

| Intelligence | 37.9 |
| --- | --- |
| Coding | 42.2 |
| Agentic | 24.2 |
| LMArena Elo | 1397.5 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.
