Google Introduces Gemini 3.7 Flash: Smarter Workhorse Model for Coding and Agents

Google today introduced Gemini 3.7 Flash, the latest addition to its Flash series, arriving just three weeks after Gemini 3.6 Flash. Google describes it as its most intelligent workhorse model for coding and agents, offered at an introductory price of half the original 3.6 Flash cost per million tokens.

Key Takeaways

  • Gemini 3.7 Flash launches three weeks after Gemini 3.6 Flash
  • Coding benchmarks improve sharply: FrontierCode 1.1 Main up from 34.4% to 43.6%, DeepSWE v1.1 up from 49.0% to 65.3%
  • Introductory pricing of $0.75 per 1M input tokens and $3.75 per 1M output tokens, half the original 3.6 Flash cost
  • Gemini Spark now runs on Gemini 3.7 Flash for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers

Smarter for complex workflows

Gemini 3.7 Flash shows strong gains over 3.6 Flash in coding tasks such as debugging and issue resolution, with higher first-pass code accuracy and improved performance in generating production-ready code. Benchmark scores include FrontierCode 1.1 Main rising from 34.4% to 43.6%, and DeepSWE v1.1 rising from 49.0% to 65.3%.

In web development, 3.7 Flash generates more functional layouts and feature-complete apps in fewer prompts. For UI generation, the model shows high design adherence based on a reference input, whether a screenshot, an image, or a full design system. It outperforms 3.6 Flash on Arena.ai’s WebDev Arena with an Elo score of 1588 versus 1538.

For knowledge-dense fields such as finance, law, and biosciences, 3.7 Flash delivers improved reasoning and accuracy. It significantly outperforms 3.6 Flash on the GDP.pdf benchmark (34.0% versus 22.0%), an eval for processing complex documents, and surpasses 3.6 Flash in AutomationBench for real-world business workflows (30.4% versus 17.0%).

Better developer experience and price

Google says 3.7 Flash delivers a noticeably improved developer experience over 3.6 Flash. It better adapts to roadblocks, clarifies intent when needed, and follows instructions with greater fidelity, putting more effort into multi-step planning and tool calls for less manual oversight and fewer retries.

3.7 Flash is available through the end of the year at an introductory price of $0.75 per 1M input tokens and $3.75 per 1M output tokens, half the original 3.6 Flash cost per million tokens. Early customer feedback highlights performance and precision significantly better than 3.6 Flash at low cost.

Gemini Spark upgraded with 3.7 Flash

Gemini Spark, available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in over 160 countries, now runs on Gemini 3.7 Flash. Spark, launched at I/O as a personal AI agent that runs 24/7, becomes more efficient for knowledge work with improved tool use for Google Workspace apps, delivering improved accuracy and output quality for complex, multi-skill workflows such as consolidating files, drafting emails, and updating status documents.

Built with safety in mind

Gemini 3.7 Flash ships with updated safeguards against misuse in the domains of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) and cyber offense, while enabling beneficial use cases. Technical details are available in the 3.7 Flash model card.

Available today

Developers can explore agent-first workflows in Google Antigravity or start building in the Gemini API via Google AI Studio and Android Studio. Enterprises can access 3.7 Flash in the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform and the Gemini Enterprise app. Individuals can use it via Spark, the 24/7 personal agent in the Gemini app for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in supported countries.
