What changed

Google says paid API customers and Google AI Ultra subscribers are next in line for Gemini 4 Argon, after its initial availability to a small group of cybersecurity defenders. The company says broader access will follow after more testing, according to The Next Web.

The model’s output limit is listed at one million tokens, up from 64,000. That is a substantial increase for long documents and extended workflows, though a larger context limit does not by itself tell us how reliably the model handles them.

Google gives an introductory API price of $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens. That gives developers a concrete starting point for estimating costs, before real workloads reveal how quickly those longer interactions add up.
