Gemini Decision 1

Google released Gemini Decision 1 and the Gemini Decisions API, which scores up to 1,000 closed-set questions per request in one forward pass at $0.10 per 1M input tokens.

Gemini Decision 1 (gemini-decision-1) scores candidate options in a single forward pass instead of generating answer text token by token. It returns probabilities and confidence scores in 150-250 ms end-to-end, and zero output tokens are billed. One multimodal input of up to 256K tokens (text, images, audio, video, PDFs) can be paired with up to 1,000 independent yes/no, choice and rubric-scoring questions.
