Use it for

  • — Building production AI agents with lower token costs
  • — Coding and code generation tasks
  • — Document analysis and knowledge extraction
  • — Agentic workflows requiring multi-step reasoning
  • — Multimodal content processing (text, image, video, audio)
  • — Real-time applications requiring low latency

Get the most out of it

  1. 01Use prompt caching to reduce costs by 30-80% on repeated contexts
  2. 02For high-throughput tasks, consider Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite ($0.30/$2.50) as a lower-cost alternative
  3. 03Leverage the built-in computer use tool via the Gemini API for better agentic automation without custom implementations
  4. 04Monitor output token efficiency—3.6 Flash produces fewer tokens than 3.5 Flash for equivalent tasks, yielding savings beyond the price reduction
  5. 05Access through Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, or the Gemini API for immediate integration
