Google Releases Gemini 3.6 Flash, 3.5 Flash-Lite, and 3.5 Flash Cyber: A Cheaper, More Token-Efficient Flash Tier Built for Agentic Workloads

Google released three new Gemini models—3.6 Flash, 3.5 Flash-Lite, and 3.5 Flash Cyber—optimized for agentic workloads with lower latency and reduced token consumption. Gemini 3.6 Flash cuts output tokens by 17% overall and up to 65% on coding benchmarks, with output pricing dropping from $9.00 to $7.50 per 1M tokens, while 3.5 Flash-Lite achieves 350 output tokens per second at $0.30/$2.50 per 1M. Developers can now build cheaper, faster multi-agent systems with built-in computer-use capabilities, though the specialized Cyber model for vulnerability detection remains gated to governments and trusted partners.
