Google: Gemini 3.6 Flash (batch)
Gemini 3.6 Flash (batch) is a Google model listed with a 1,048,576-token context window and up to 65,536 output tokens per response. It accepts text, image, video, audio, and file inputs, which suits mixed-media workloads such as long documents paired with recordings or footage. It supports both tool use and reasoning. The listing does not specify structured output support, so teams that depend on strict schemas should verify it before committing. Pricing is $0.375 per million input tokens and $1.875 per million output tokens. That makes input-heavy jobs over large contexts the clearest fit; output costs five times as much as input, so verbose generation adds up faster. The model has no independent benchmark coverage yet, so its quality relative to alternatives is unproven. Shortlist it for cost-sensitive multimodal or long-context work, and run your own evaluations against a benchmarked option before choosing.
