Google: Gemini 3 Pro
Gemini 3 Pro is a previous Gemini 3 Pro Preview snapshot, not the live Gemini default. A leftover dedicated card still exists.
Compare Gemini 3.7 Flash if you wanted the live Flash path ($0.75/$3.75 through 2026-12-31, then $1.50/$7.50), leftover Gemini 3.6 Flash if you wanted the previous-generation Flash row, and leftover Gemini 3.5 Flash if you wanted the earlier Flash slug.
Key Features
- Previous 3 Pro Preview: Live docs mark the Preview ID shut down. Confirm the models index before you hard-code it.
- Not the 2026 Gemini lead: New Flash work starts at Gemini 3.7 Flash.
- Not a vision crown: older copy called it the world's best multimodal model. That claim is out.
- Website is the models index: Point at the live Gemini models page until a live 3 Pro replacement is the better first-party URL.
Use Cases
- People with a Gemini 3 Pro bookmark who need the catalog corrected.
- People who were about to paste world's-best vision AI into a 2026 deck.
The leftover dedicated card still prints a Preview price; the models index marks that Preview shut down.
Pricing
First-party pages on 2026-08-18.
| Piece | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gemini 3 Pro Preview | Shut down on the models index | Leftover dedicated card still prints $2 / $12 per 1M tokens. Confirm both pages before you quote it. |

If a leftover blog still calls 3 Pro the current Gemini vision crown, treat the live models page as the correction.
