Gemini 3.8 Flash

Gemini 3.8 · Released 2026-09-02

Google's 2 Sep 2026 Flash workhorse. Same intro API price as 3.7 Flash: $0.75 / $3.75 per 1M tokens through 31 Dec 2026. 1M context, 64K output. AA Intelligence Index v4.2 is 47 at high effort — two points above 3.7 Flash on the same scale.

Current Google Flash model for coding agents and high-throughput tool use. Prefer sourced AA ledger rows over launch DeepSWE / HLE-Verified / Vals Finance claims.

Editor's note
Recorded from the 2 Sep 2026 Google launch post, DeepMind model card (1M context, 64K output, March 2026 cutoff with some domains still at Jan 2025), and the live AA model page (v4.2 high-effort index 47). Google-reported DeepSWE, HLE-Verified 54.9%, Vals Finance Agent V2, and Harvey Legal figures stay vendor-claimed. Editorial depth still needs a desk pass.
