Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite

Google's fastest, lowest-cost Gemini 3.5 model for extraction, routing and subagent tasks.

What is Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite?

Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite is the fastest and most cost-effective model in Google's Gemini 3.5 class, released on July 21, 2026.

Google built it for high-volume, latency-sensitive jobs such as translation, classification, document parsing and structured JSON extraction, and for subagents that handle one step of a larger workflow. Google says it follows multi-turn instructions better than Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite and beats Gemini 3 Flash on several agentic and coding tests, and computer use is a built-in tool. Inputs cover text, images, video, audio and PDFs, with a 1M-token context window.
