Gemini 2.5 Flash (batch) example: reading an image into JSON
The example is picked from this model's own capabilities. Drop in your key and it runs as is.

Google publishes this model; we expose it under the id "google/gemini-2.5-flash:batch". Its context window is 1,048,576 tokens, roughly 786k English words in one request. A single response can run to 65,535 tokens. On price it sits in the "cheap" band — cheaper than 164 and dearer than 242 of the other paid models in the catalogue.
What you get on top of text in, text out: it reads images directly, which makes it a real option for invoices, forms and screenshots; it takes files such as PDFs as input; it accepts audio input; it supports tool calling, so it can invoke your own functions with valid arguments; it returns schema-valid JSON through response_format, ready to hand to your code; it has a reasoning mode that pays off on multi-step problems, maths and debugging. All of it works through the standard parameters of the official OpenAI SDK — no custom client, no wrapper. Keep in mind that reasoning tokens are output tokens and do appear on the bill.
Input runs at 43,519 toman per 1M tokens and output at 362,656 — output costs 8.3× input, so trimming the answer saves more than trimming the prompt. It supports cached input: repeated context is billed at 8,704 toman per 1M, which matters a lot if your system prompt is long. Each input image is billed separately at about 0.04 toman. You are always charged for the usage the request actually reported, never for the estimate, and a failed request costs nothing.
The closest alternative with the same capabilities from a different provider is Claude 3 Haiku: Gemini 2.5 Flash (batch) works out roughly 1.1× cheaper, and its context window is larger. Both run on the same key and the same code, so trying the other one is a single string change.
To make the figure concrete: 100,000 toman of credit buys roughly 189 thousand-word requests on Gemini 2.5 Flash (batch), and every 1,000 toman is about 1,894 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 406,175 toman in total. Filling this model's 1,048,576-token window costs 45,633 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.
This id gets confused with "google/gemini-2.5-flash", because the underlying model is the same. The difference is the suffix: "batch" against the standard variant. On a thousand-word request this variant works out 2× cheaper (528 against 1,056 toman).
Google has 45 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Gemma 3 4B at 57 toman per thousand words and the dearest Google Gemini Pro Latest at 5,280. By context size the nearest option from another provider is DeepSeek V4 Flash 0423 at 1,048,576 tokens.
Where it makes sense: high-volume work such as classification, tagging and bulk summarising, logic puzzles and code review, pulling text and fields out of images, agents that reach out to APIs and databases, extracting data against a fixed schema, analysing a long document or codebase in one request.
Gemini 2.5 Flash is Google's state-of-the-art workhorse model, specifically designed for advanced reasoning, coding, mathematics, and scientific tasks. It includes built-in "thinking" capabilities, enabling it to provide responses with greater...
