Gemini API adds Flex and Priority inference tiers
80radar
Google announced two new Gemini API inference tiers: Flex and Priority. For indie developers, this suggests a clearer tradeoff between lower cost and more predictable latency, which can help match infrastructure spend to product needs.
- API usage can likely be segmented by workload sensitivity: cheaper paths for background or non-urgent jobs, faster/reliable paths for user-facing requests.
- This is relevant to indie teams because pricing and latency control directly affect margins and UX.
- The announcement appears to be an API/service tier update rather than a new model release.
