# Gemini 3.8 Flash

Google · Proprietary · rank 6 · bench-align-v5

> Every figure below is reproduced as its upstream source published it: nothing is modelled, estimated, interpolated or converted. `Unavailable` means no source published the value — it is never a zero. Each value carries its evidence state and the date it was observed.

## Runtime service evidence

Measured values with the date they were observed. Nothing is inferred from a sibling model or a provider claim. Regional or per-endpoint measurements appear only when the API supplies them; none are modelled.

**Self-hosted listing.** Google lists introductory Gemini 3.8 Flash rates through December 31, 2026: $0.75 input, $0.075 cached input, and $3.75 output per million tokens. Flex and Batch input and output rates are half those amounts. On January 1, 2027, standard rates rise to $1.50 input, $0.15 cached input, and $7.50 output; Flex and Batch rates rise to $0.75 input, $0.075 cached input, and $3.75 output. Cache storage is $0.50 per million tokens per hour through 2026 and $1.00 afterward. The rates above are a hosted price matched from another provider, not a first-party list price.

## Workload-aware monthly cost example

10 conversations per day × 8 messages × 22 active days, 1200 input and 400 output tokens per message, no cache. Derived here from the published rates above by this site's own calculator — not a figure any source published.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Modelled monthly cost | $4.22 |
| Modelled tokens | 2.82M |

## Lifecycle and limitations log

Lifecycle events the source associates with this model.

No lifecycle event references this model. That is not evidence the model has no lifecycle plan — only that this source published none.

## What this profile does not claim

Values are reproduced exactly as their sources published them, in the units those sources declared; none are converted, interpolated, or averaged across providers. Any field marked unavailable was attempted and not returned. Last attempted fetch for this model's score: 2026-09-22 10:17 UTC.
