Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite
READER SUMMARYA very fast and inexpensive Gemini tier for high-throughput agentic search, document processing, coding, computer use, and multi-step subagent workloads.
Why this model scores 71.1
The tier has lower frontier capability than 3.6 Flash but very high speed, low cost, built-in computer use, and exceptionally broad consumer, search, API, and enterprise reach. Its weaker raw capability and managed deployment reduce misuse and residual control difficulty relative to higher-end or open-weight models.
