Gemini 2.5 Pro 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.

Gemini 2.5 Pro comes from Google; in uttapen you reach it with the model id "google/
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 432,774 toman per 1M tokens and output at 3,462,194 — output costs 8× input, so trimming the answer saves more than trimming the prompt. It supports cached input: repeated context is billed at 43,277 toman per 1M, which matters a lot if your system prompt is long. Each input image is billed separately at about 0.43 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 Opus 5.5 (batch): Gemini 2.5 Pro works out about 9% 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 20 thousand-word requests on Gemini 2.5 Pro, and every 1,000 toman is about 198 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 3,894,968 toman in total. Filling this model's 1,048,576-token window costs 453,797 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.

Google has 43 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Gemma 4 26B A4B at 45 toman per thousand words and the dearest Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview Custom Tools at 6,301. By context size the nearest option from another provider is DeepSeek V4 Flash 0423 at 1,048,576 tokens.
Where it makes sense: work where the quality of the answer matters more than its cost, 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 Pro is Google’s state-of-the-art AI model designed for advanced reasoning, coding, mathematics, and scientific tasks. It employs “thinking” capabilities, enabling it to reason through responses with enhanced accuracy...
