Priced at $0.25\/1M input tokens and $1.50\/1M output tokens, it's cost-efficient and faster than 2.5 Flash. Use 3.1 Flash-Lite for tasks like translation content moderation generating user interfaces and creating simulations.\nSummaries were generated by Google AI. Generative AI is experimental.\nBasic explainer\nGoogle made a new AI model called Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite. It's super fast and cheap to use, so more people can use it. This AI is good at things like translating languages and checking content. Some companies are already using it to solve tough problems because it's both smart and efficient.\nSummaries were generated by Google AI. Generative AI is experimental.\nYour browser does not support the audio element.\nListen to article\nThis content is generated by Google AI. Generative AI is experimental\n[[duration]] minutes\nToday, we're introducing Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite, our fastest and most cost-efficient Gemini 3 series model. Built for high-volume developer workloads at scale, 3.1 Flash-Lite delivers high quality for its price and model tier.\nStarting today, 3.1 Flash-Lite is rolling out in preview to developers via the Gemini API in\nGoogle AI Studio\nand for enterprises via\nVertex AI\n.\nCost-efficiency without compromise\nPriced at just $0.25\/1M input tokens and $1.50\/1M output tokens, 3.1 Flash-Lite delivers enhanced performance at a fraction of the cost of larger models. It outperforms 2.5 Flash with a 2.5X faster Time to First Answer Token and 45% increase in output speed, according to the\nArtificial Analysis benchmark\nwhile maintaining similar or better quality. This low latency is needed for high-frequency workflows, making it an ideal model for developers to build responsive, real-time experiences.\nGemini 3.1 Flash-Lite outperforms 2.5 Flash in speed and quality.\n3.1 Flash-Lite achieves an impressive Elo score of 1432 on the\nArena.ai Leaderboard\nand outperforms other models of similar tier across reasoning and multimodal understanding benchmarks, including 86.9% on GPQA Diamond and 76.8% on MMMU Pro–even surpassing larger Gemini models from prior generations like 2.5 Flash.\nAdaptive intelligence at scale for developers\nBeyond its raw performance, Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite comes standard with thinking levels in AI Studio and Vertex AI, giving developers the control and flexibility to select how much the model “thinks” for a task, which is critical for managing high-frequency workloads. 3.1 Flash-Lite can tackle tasks at scale, like high-volume translation and content moderation, where cost is a priority. And it can also handle more complex workloads where more in-depth reasoning is needed, like generating user interfaces and dashboards, creating simulations or following instructions.\nEarly-access developers on AI Studio and Vertex AI, and companies like Latitude, Cartwheel and Whering are already using 3.1 Flash-Lite to solve complex problems at scale. Early testers highlighted 3.1 Flash-Lite’s efficiency and reasoning capabilities, saying it can handle complex inputs with the precision of a larger-tier model, plus follow instructions and maintain adherence.\nWe look forward to seeing what you build with 3.1 Flash-Lite and the rest of the Gemini 3 series models.\nGet more stories from Google in your inbox.\nDone.

Built for high-volume developer workloads at scale, 3.1 Flash-Lite delivers high quality for its price and model tier. Starting today, 3.1 Flash-Lite is rolling out in preview to developers via the Gemini API in [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/prompts/new_chat?model=gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview) and for enterprises via [Vertex AI](https://console.cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/studio/multimodal?mode=prompt&model=gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview). ## Cost-efficiency without compromise Priced at just \$0.25/1M input tokens and \$1.50/1M output tokens, 3.1 Flash-Lite delivers enhanced performance at a fraction of the cost of larger models. It outperforms 2.5 Flash with a 2.5X faster Time to First Answer Token and 45% increase in output speed, according to the [Artificial Analysis benchmark](https://artificialanalysis.ai/) while maintaining similar or better quality. This low latency is needed for high-frequency workflows, making it an ideal model for developers to build responsive, real-time experiences.
