Context caching storage is $4.50 per 1M tokens per hour rather than a per-write fee, so cache write is not stated; Batch cached input is the same as Standard. Output price includes thinking tokens. Free tier available. Flex equals Batch; Priority is $2.25 / $18.00 / $0.225 cached (<=200k) and $4.50 / $27.00 / $0.45 (>200k). release date is the stable gemini-2.5-pro release in the Gemini API changelog (June 17, 2025).
