Knowledge cutoff March 2026, unchanged from its predecessor (source).
No parameter count, architecture or weight release is reported, and none is expected on this line.
Release Date
2026-08-13, 23 days after Gemini 3.6 Flash (2026-07-21).
Logan Kilpatrick, who leads product for Google AI Studio, described the gain as arriving in "roughly three weeks" and attributed it to algorithmic improvements across Google DeepMind teams rather than to scale (source). That is a claim about the source of the improvement and no evidence for it was published; it is recorded as the vendor's account.
Benchmarks
Vendor-stated, against Gemini 3.6 Flash (source):
| Benchmark | Gemini 3.7 Flash | Gemini 3.6 Flash |
|---|---|---|
| AutomationBench | 30.4% | 17.0% |
| FrontierCode | 43.6% | 34.4% |
| DeepSWE | 65.3% | 48.6% |
| LVBench (long video) | 85.4% | unknown |
| GDM-MRCR v2 @128k | 97.0% | unknown |
| GDM-MRCR v2 @1M | 62.5% | unknown |
| WebDev Arena | 1588 Elo | unknown |
| On AutomationBench — enterprise workflow automation — coverage places it | ||
| ahead of GPT-5.6 Terra (23.6%) and **Claude Sonnet 5 | ||
| (10.7%)** (source). | ||
| Whether Google ran those comparison figures itself is not stated in anything | ||
| read. |
Not one of these benchmarks appears in any sources/evals/ snapshot this
repository holds — not AutomationBench, FrontierCode, LVBench, GDM-MRCR v2 or
WebDev Arena. This is the same gap recorded on Muse Glimmer,
Nemotron 3.5 Lightning and Grok Imagine Image 2.0: there is no
local column to check the vendor's figure against, so the number and its
provenance travel together or not at all. See
Eval Harness Configuration.
Note the shape of the headline: 30.4% is roughly double 17.0%, and it is also under a third of the tasks. Both readings are in the same figure and the release material carries only the first (source).
The DeepSWE figure of 65.3% is the one directly comparable to a number this wiki already holds: DeepSeek V4-Pro-0813 reports 62.7 on the same benchmark, vendor-run and with no published harness on either side.
Use Cases
Positioned as a workhorse: Google's own blog title is "our most intelligent workhorse model" (source). The benchmark selection — enterprise workflow automation, coding, long-context retrieval, long video — describes the intended workload more precisely than the positioning does.
Accepts text, images, audio and video (source).
Compared To
- Gemini 3.8 Flash — the successor, 20 days later; identical spec table apart from the dates, with Terminal-Bench 2.1 up 9.2 points and SWE-bench Pro up 1.2
- Gemini 3.6 Flash — the direct predecessor, 23 days earlier; same context window, same output ceiling, same standard price
- Gemini 3.5 Flash — the generation before it
- GPT-5.6 Sol (and Terra, Luna) — its Terra tier is the model named as the AutomationBench comparison
- Claude Sonnet 5 — the other named comparison, at 10.7% on AutomationBench
- DeepSeek V4-Pro-0813 — released the same day, and the nearest DeepSWE figure
Conflicting Reports
-
The published price disagrees with the catalogue's first-party endpoint, and the page's figure stands.
spec-checkrun 90 (2026-09-12) reports input $0.75 vs $0.38; output $3.75 vs $1.88, both ~2.0× against Google (1차) (source).The Spec row is not changed. Per
CLAUDE.md, a page that cites a vendor announcement keeps the vendor's figure, and the cell above is faithful to the announcement this page cites. What was missing was the disclosure, which is what the schema asks for and what this entry supplies.What is not established: which figure is correct, and what the catalogue's price is a price for — no tier, context band, modality or billing unit appears in the check's output. The ratio is an exact small-integer multiple in both cells at once, and it is on six of the eight conflicting pages, which is the shape of a tier or unit mismatch rather than of six independent errors — recorded as a pattern and not adopted as an explanation (source).
This has been reported by a red Action on every run since 2026-08-29 — 25 consecutive — and had reached no page until 2026-09-13.
openrouter.aiis blocked from the daily run's sandbox, so the catalogue cannot be re-read here to settle it; that is a question for a run with egress.
