Google: Gemini Pro 1.5
Gemini 1.5 Pro is a previous Google multimodal snapshot, not the live Gemini API default. The same page still lists leftover Gemini 2.5 and Gemini 2.0 Flash.
Compare Gemini 1.5 Flash if you wanted the leftover 1.5 cheap twin already rewritten as previous, and Nano Banana if you wanted Gemini image editing rather than this 2024 Pro leftover.
Key Features
- Previous 1.5 Pro snapshot: older copy treated 1.5 Pro as Google's current multimodal default. Confirm the models page before you hard-code it.
- Not the 2026 Gemini lead: Live API docs lead with Gemini 3 Pro / 3.1 Pro / 3 Flash.
- No leftover OpenRouter caveat as a 2026 fact: Confirm the live Gemini models page for current modalities. Do not keep "video not yet on OpenRouter" as a census.
- No invented 2026 dollar row for 1.5 Pro: Confirm live Gemini pricing before you quote a current 1.5 Pro price.
Use Cases
- People with a Gemini 1.5 Pro bookmark who need the catalog corrected.
- People who were about to call 1.5 Pro Google's current multimodal default.
Limitation: We did not call gemini-1.5-pro or invent a 2026 per-token price.
Pricing
First-party pages on 2026-08-18.
| Piece | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gemini 1.5 Pro | Previous snapshot | Confirm ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/models. |
| Live Gemini lead | Confirm Gemini 3 Pro | Gemini 3 Pro is the live Pro path on this site. |
| Dollar row | Confirm live Gemini pricing | Confirm the live official page.5 Pro per-token census. |
If a leftover blog still calls 1.5 Pro Google's latest multimodal, treat the Gemini 3 models page as the correction.

- Confirm Gemini 3 Pro if you wanted the live Pro path.
- Confirm Gemini 3 Flash if you wanted the live cheap path.
- Do not paste "latest multimodal" into a 2026 deck.
