Gemini 3.6 Flash

Google DeepMind's July 2026 workhorse Flash model, built for scaling agentic workflows. Multimodal over a 1M-token context, it improves on Gemini 3.5 Flash in coding, knowledge work, and computer use while cutting output-token usage ~17% (up to 65% on some benchmarks like DeepSWE) and taking fewer reasoning steps and tool calls. Ships at a lower price than 3.5 Flash ($1.50 / $7.50 per 1M input/output tokens). Google-reported gains: DeepSWE 49% (vs 37%), MLE-Bench 63.9% (vs 49.7%), OSWorld-Verified 83.0% (vs 78.4%), GDPval-AA v2 1421 (vs 1349); knowledge cutoff advances to March 2026. Computer use is a built-in client-side tool. Available in the Gemini API (AI Studio, Android Studio, Antigravity), Gemini Enterprise, and the Gemini app.
