Google: Gemini 3 Flash Preview (batch)
Google's Gemini 3 Flash Preview is an advanced AI model capable of handling text, images, files, audio, and video inputs within a vast context length of 1,048,576 tokens. It supports reasoning and tools integration, though it does not provide structured output directly. This model excels in versatility and depth, making it suitable for complex tasks that require understanding across multiple modalities. Given its blended benchmark score of 44.2, Gemini 3 is a strong contender; however, its price point-$0.25 per million input tokens and $1.5 per million output tokens-makes it notably expensive compared to other options on the market.
