Gemini API API Pricing, Free Access and Cost Examples (2026)

The APIMART live pricing payload currently lists Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite at $0.08 per million input tokens and $0.32 output, Gemini 2.5 Flash at $0.24 input and $1.99992 output, and Gemini 2.5 Pro at $1 input and $8 output. Prices bind to exact model IDs, not the Gemini family label. Prices and promotions were observed on September 2, 2026; the live pricing surface and account ledger remain authoritative.

Published cost table

| Option | Observed price | Example A | Example B | Example C | |---|---:|---:|---:|---| | gemini-2.5-flash-lite | $0.08/M input | $0.32/M output | $0.000112 for 1K in + 100 out | $0.00112 for 10K in + 1K out | | gemini-2.5-flash | $0.24/M input | $1.99992/M output | $0.00044 for 1K in + 100 out | $0.00440 for 10K in + 1K out | | gemini-2.5-pro | $1.00/M input | $8.00/M output | $0.0018 for 1K in + 100 out | $0.018 for 10K in + 1K out |

These examples are arithmetic planning estimates. Actual billing depends on the exact model ID, options and completed output recorded by APIMART.

Budgeting workflow

Record the full model ID, cap output quantity or duration, submit through POST /v1beta/models/{model}:generateContent, store the returned task ID, and reconcile the completed job against the account ledger. Do not treat account signup or a temporary promotion as proof of unlimited free generation.
