Estimate · gemini-tokenizer-estimate · ≈3.85 chars/token Auto-counts as you type
This is a chars-per-token approximation, not a real tokenizer. Actual tokens vary by language, code density, and tool-call overhead — counts are typically ±10–20% off for English prose, more for code or non-Latin scripts. For exact billing, use the vendor's official tokenizer.

Frequently asked.
Gemini 1.0 Pro pricing questions, with archive status separated from token math.
Q · 01 What is Gemini 1.0 Pro's API price? +
This is an archive price, not a current endpoint recommendation. The page uses
$0.5/M input and $1.5/M output.Q · 02 Is Gemini 1.0 Pro still available? +
No. Google documentation marks the endpoint as shut down on
2025-02-18. Use gemini-2-5-flash for current traffic.Q · 03 Does prompt caching apply? +
No active cache price is listed for this retired model. For blended math, this page treats cached input as regular input at
$0.5/M rather than inventing a discount.Q · 04 How should I use this page? +
Use it for archive pricing, old invoice reconciliation, and generation-to-generation price comparisons. Do not route new production traffic to this model, because the endpoint has already been shut down.
Q · 05 What about Batch and Flex pricing? +
This archive page does not model a current Batch or Flex path because Gemini 1.0 Pro is shut down. Use the recommended replacement for current Batch or Flex pricing.
Q · 06 How accurate is the tokenizer estimate? +
The widget uses
4.0 characters per token as a Gemini planning estimate. Exact billing can differ by language, media inputs, tool calls, and how Google tokenizes multimodal content.
