Google released Gemini 3.6 Flash, 3.5 Flash-Lite and a specialized 3.5 Flash Cyber model while saying its larger 3.5 Pro remained in partner testing. Google priced Gemini 3.6 Flash at $1.50 per million input tokens and $7.50 per million output tokens. The company said 3.6 Flash uses fewer output tokens than its predecessor on selected evaluations.
Flash-Lite was presented as the fastest and least expensive model in the current 3.5 class. Flash Cyber is paired with Google’s CodeMender security agent. The sequence is stated as reported because later official or investigative records may refine the first public account.
The models began rolling into APIs and consumer products. Gemini 3.5 Pro remained in limited testing after missing an earlier expected release window. Google said it had started a larger pretraining run for Gemini 4. Attributed claims are preserved as claims rather than treated as independent proof.
Vendor benchmarks describe controlled tasks and may not predict every production workload. Token price, total token use, latency and tool-call count jointly determine task cost. Cyber capability depends on the model, agent harness, tools, permissions and monitoring.
The available record also connects a verified development with its operating context. Google priced Gemini 3.6 Flash at $1.50 per million input tokens and $7.50 per million output tokens. Vendor benchmarks describe controlled tasks and may not predict every production workload.
A separate factual check preserves the distinction between the event and the explanation offered for it. The company said 3.6 Flash uses fewer output tokens than its predecessor on selected evaluations. Token price, total token use, latency and tool-call count jointly determine task cost.
The reporting boundary remains material: Independent evaluations, production reliability and the final 3.5 Pro release schedule were not established.
The next observable records are third-party comparisons on real agent workloads and safety documentation and availability for flash cyber and gemini 3.5 pro.
