What's a token →
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 2.0 Flash pricing questions, with archive/deprecation status separated from token math.

Q · 01 Can I still call Gemini 2.0 Flash? +
No. Google retired gemini-2.0-flash on June 1, 2026, and requests to it now fail. Google names Gemini 3.6 Flash as the replacement. The rates on this page are the last ones Google listed, kept for reading old invoices and for estimating a migration.
Q · 02 What is Gemini 2.0 Flash's API price? +
Google took this model off the API on June 1, 2026. The last listed rates, kept here, are $0.1/M input and $0.4/M output.
Q · 03 Does prompt caching apply? +
Yes. Google lists context caching for this model at $0.025/M for text, image, and video input. The calculator uses that last listed cache rate for the agentic blended estimate.
Q · 04 How should I use this page? +
Use it to read old invoices and to compare the 2.0 rate with what replaced it. Google's deprecations table names Gemini 3.6 Flash as the replacement for 2.0 Flash and Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite for 2.0 Flash-Lite; the Gemini 2.5 models are no longer open to new users.
Q · 05 What about Batch and Flex pricing? +
Batch is listed at $0.05/M input for text, image, and video, $0.35/M audio input, and $0.20/M output. Context caching remains $0.025/M for text/image/video and $0.175/M for audio.
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.
