Gemini API Pricing — KeyoAPI vs Typical Google List Rates
Looking up Gemini API pricing usually means you already want Google-class models but need clearer unit economics — or a relay that also hosts DeepSeek free tiers and Whisper under one balance. This page compares indicative Keyo sell rates with typical public Google list figures and shows how to call Gemini-class IDs on an OpenAI-compatible gateway.
Price comparison table
| Model ID | Typical official / context | KeyoAPI | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
gemini-2.5-flash |
Google Gemini 2.5 Flash list often cited near ~$0.30 / $2.50 per 1M in/out (varies by tier/context) | ~$0.11 / $0.92 per 1M in/out | High-volume Flash lane |
gemini-2.5-pro |
Google Gemini 2.5 Pro list commonly higher than Flash (check AI Studio) | ~$0.46 / $3.68 per 1M in/out | Stronger Pro twin |
gemini-3-flash-preview |
Preview list pricing moves quickly — verify on Google | ~$0.18 / $1.10 per 1M in/out | Newer Flash preview |
gemini-3-pro-preview |
Preview Pro list — verify on Google AI Studio | ~$0.74 / $4.41 per 1M in/out | Newer Pro preview |
gemini-3.5-flash |
Google 3.5 Flash public list (confirm current) | ~$0.55 / $3.31 per 1M in/out | 3.5 Flash on Keyo |
The $0 row competitors cannot match
Google Gemini free tiers are usually quota- or trial-shaped. On the same Keyo key you can also call permanent $0 IDs such as deepseek-v4-flash-free, deepseek-v4-pro-free, glm-5.2-free, and kimi-k3-free — fair-use limited, but ModelPrice stays $0. Use them to prototype while you meter Gemini-class paid traffic.
Rates and how to call
Engineers comparing Gemini API pricing usually already want Google-class models with clearer unit economics — or one prepaid balance across Gemini-class IDs plus DeepSeek, GLM, Whisper, OCR, and TTS. Official Google surfaces win on brand trust; KeyoAPI wins when you want that stack without five invoices.
Keyo rates above are indicative sell prices from the live Keyo catalog. Always confirm interactive pricing pages under /pricing/{modelId} before contracting volume. Preview model IDs can change naming as Google ships stables.
How to call: set OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://www.keyoapi.xyz/v1, use your Keyo API key, and pass the Gemini model string (for example gemini-2.5-flash) to POST /v1/chat/completions. Many Google-native features remain Google-console only; Keyo focuses on OpenAI-compatible chat access for overseas developer stacks.
When Gemini list prices spike your margin, keep Gemini for multimodal strengths and shift plain text volume to deepseek-v4-flash or gpt-5.6-luna on the same key. For pure free prototyping, start on /free-models, then promote to Gemini paid IDs when quality gates pass.

FAQ
Is Keyo cheaper than Google Gemini API pricing?
Often on the Flash/Pro rows we list — but Google’s public list, context tiers, and batch discounts change. Treat this table as a planning snapshot and verify both sides before you commit.
Do you offer a free Gemini model?
Keyo’s permanent $0 IDs are DeepSeek/GLM/Kimi free twins today, not Gemini-branded free models. They sit on the same API key so you can prototype cheaply beside paid Gemini traffic.
