Google: Gemma 3 12B

Google: Gemma 3 12B is a large language model API from Google, part of its Gemma 3 model family. At $0.050 per million input tokens and $0.150 per million output tokens, it sits in the budget tier — among the cheaper options for high-throughput or cost-sensitive workloads. Output tokens cost about 3× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. The 131K-token context window — around 197 pages of text — comfortably handles long documents, multi-file code, or extended conversations. Beyond plain text it also accepts Image input, so it can be applied to multimodal tasks rather than text alone. On Artificial Analysis's Intelligence Index it scores 3 (F grade), a useful proxy for its general reasoning strength relative to the other models tracked here.
