Low-latency Gemini model for high-volume multimodal and agent workloads
Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite by google is offered by 3 providers on this page. Public prices are shown for 2 of them. Its reference price is $0.075 per 1M input tokens and $0.30 per 1M output tokens. The lowest paid channel is Poe at $0.052 / $0.21 per 1M, about 1.4× below the reference price. That channel is a third-party gateway, so confirm its availability and rate limits before depending on it.
Artificial Analysis rates it 7.4 on the Intelligence Index. Against its lowest blended price of $0.091 per 1M, that is roughly 81 index points per dollar, which is the value ratio the leaderboards rank on.
The context window is 2,000,000 tokens at the reference host, but hosts report different limits, from 990,000 to 2,000,000, so the usable window depends on the provider you pick. It supports tool use and structured output. Accepted input modalities are Text, Image, Video, and Audio. Providers report the capability flags inconsistently, so verify a specific feature against the host you plan to use. Its training knowledge cuts off at 2024-06.
Quality is independently evaluated by Artificial Analysis. Speed/latency are model-level medians.
Sorted by blended price (input×0.75 + output×0.25) asc. The official channel always shows regardless of rank. Whether a gateway's low price is actually usable can't be verified.
Individual evaluations run by Artificial Analysis, on the same reasoning tier as the intelligence score above. Each benchmark has its own task set and harness, so rows are not comparable with one another. The Intelligence Index above draws on a different, newer set of evaluations.
