Google launches Gemini Decision 1 decision model and Decisions API

Google released Gemini Decision 1, a calibrated multimodal decision model served through a new Decisions API that scores closed-set choices in a single pass instead of generating text token by token. It handles yes/no, multiple-choice and rubric scoring with up to 255 options, accepts text, image, audio, video and PDF inputs, supports up to 1,000 questions per request and 256K context, returns answers in 150–250 ms, and is priced at $0.10 per 1M input tokens with no output charge. Artificial Analysis scored it 66 on its Decision Index, tying Elephant 9B and Jev 1.14 while costing $345 per 1M tasks versus $103 for Drex Max.
