Gemini Flash-Lite
Google's fastest, cheapest tier — the one for high-volume steps.
Flash-Lite is the floor of the Gemini lineup: the fastest, most cost-effective tier in Google's own description. For coding agents it is the model for high-volume steps — sweeps, triage, sub-agent checks — at $0.30 in / $2.50 out per MTok.
What it is good at
- The cheapest Gemini text tier for high-volume steps
What it is less good at

Versions
One block per version, the current one first, each with its own anchor. The comparison table puts the costs and the family's benchmark columns side by side; the values are verbatim, and every one is sourced and dated in its version's section below and in the Sources list. A dash means the source publishes no figure, and nothing here is estimated.
No independent intelligence or speed index is republished here: Artificial Analysis measures both across labs, and its terms allow the link but not the copy — its figures live on its own pages.
