Google Launches Gemini 3.7 Flash with Half the Cost

Google introduces Gemini 3.7 Flash, its most intelligent workhorse model yet, at half the cost of 3.6 Flash with major gains in coding and knowledge work.

Google has launched Gemini 3.7 Flash, a more intelligent and cost-effective workhorse model for coding and agents. The model delivers substantial gains in software engineering, knowledge work, and web development at half the cost of 3.6 Flash. It is available through the Gemini API and powers Gemini Spark for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.

Google has introduced Gemini 3.7 Flash, building on the progress of its widely used Flash series. The company calls it "our most intelligent workhorse model yet for coding and agents." The release comes just three weeks after the previous version and is a direct result of developer feedback and algorithmic innovations.

Performance Gains Across the Board

Gemini 3.7 Flash delivers substantial improvements across software engineering, knowledge work, and web development workflows. In coding tasks like debugging and issue resolution, the model shows strong gains over 3.6 Flash. It achieves higher first-pass code accuracy and improved performance in generating production-ready code, with benchmark scores of 43.6% versus 34.4% on key evaluations.

In web development, 3.7 Flash generates more functional layouts and feature-complete apps in fewer prompts. For UI generation, the model shows high design adherence based on reference inputs — whether a screenshot, image, or full design system. It outperforms 3.6 Flash on Arena.ai with an Elo score of 1588 versus 1538.

For knowledge-dense fields like finance, law, and biosciences, 3.7 Flash delivers improved reasoning and accuracy. It significantly outperforms 3.6 Flash on the GDP.pdf benchmark (34.0% versus 22.0%), an evaluation for processing complex documents. It also surpasses 3.6 Flash on real-world business workflow benchmarks (30.4% versus 17.0%).

Improved Developer Experience

Gemini 3.7 Flash delivers a noticeably improved developer experience over 3.6 Flash. It better adapts to roadblocks, clarifies intent when needed, and follows instructions with greater fidelity. The model thinks more diligently, putting more effort into multi-step planning and tool calls. A more disciplined execution means less manual oversight and fewer retries across engineering workflows.

Pricing and Availability

3.7 Flash is available through the end of the year at an introductory price of 0.75per1Minputtokensand0.75 per 1M input tokens and 3.75 per 1M output tokens — half the cost of the original 3.6 Flash. The introductory pricing expires on December 31, 2026. Starting January 1, 2027, standard pricing of 1.50per1Minputtokensand1.50 per 1M input tokens and 7.50 per 1M output tokens will apply.

Gemini Spark Integration

Gemini Spark, available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, will use Gemini 3.7 Flash starting today. The model update makes Spark more efficient for knowledge work with improved tool use for Google Workspace apps, delivering improved accuracy and output quality for complex, multi-skill workflows.

Safety and Availability

Gemini 3.7 Flash ships with updated safeguards against misuse in Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) domains and cyber offense, while enabling beneficial use cases in accordance with Google's AI principles.

Developers can explore agent-first workflows or start building today in the Gemini API. The model is also available via Spark, the 24/7 personal agent in the Gemini app for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.
