Google Introduces Gemini 3.7 Flash for Coding and Agent Workflows
Google has announced Gemini 3.7 Flash, an updated workhorse AI model focused on software engineering, web development, and agentic workflows, featuring benchmark improvements and a reduced introductory price compared to Gemini 3.6 Flash.
Gemini 3.7 Flash launched three weeks after version 3.6 Flash, offering half the original per-token cost at an introductory rate of $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens through the end of the year.
The model shows significant performance gains in coding benchmarks, reaching 43.6% on FrontierCode 1.1 Main and 65.3% on DeepSWE v1.1, alongside an Elo score of 1588 on WebDev Arena.
Scores increased on knowledge-dense benchmarks, rising to 34.0% on GDP.pdf and 30.4% on AutomationBench.
The model now powers Gemini Spark for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers and includes updated safeguards against CBRN and cyber offense misuse.
Performance and Benchmark Improvements
Gemini 3.7 Flash demonstrates enhanced capabilities in software engineering and web development, achieving improved first-pass code accuracy, debugging, and UI generation from reference inputs. The model outscored Gemini 3.6 Flash on coding metrics such as FrontierCode 1.1 Main (43.6% versus 34.4%) and DeepSWE v1.1 (65.3% versus 49.0%), and attained a 1588 Elo score on Arena.ai's WebDev Arena. For complex document and workflow processing, it scored 34.0% on the GDP.pdf benchmark and 30.4% on AutomationBench.
Developer Experience and Pricing
The release emphasizes multi-step planning, tool calls, and instruction following to reduce retries and manual oversight in engineering tasks. Google introduced 3.7 Flash at half the original cost per million tokens of 3.6 Flash, offering promotional pricing through the end of the year at $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens.
Integrations, Availability, and Safety
Starting at launch, Gemini 3.7 Flash powers Gemini Spark, the 24/7 personal agent available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in over 160 countries, boosting tool use across Google Workspace applications. The model is accessible to developers via Google AI Studio, Android Studio, and Google Antigravity, and to enterprises via the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. It also ships with updated Frontier Safety safeguards addressing misuse in cyber offense and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) domains.

Today, we’re building on the progress of our widely used Flash series by introducing Gemini 3.7 Flash, our most intelligent workhorse model yet for coding and agents.
This release comes just three weeks after
Gemini 3.6 Flash
, and is a direct result of developer feedback and algorithmic innovations that we look forward to bringing to future models. 3.7 Flash delivers substantial improvements across software engineering, knowledge work, and web development workflows — with an introductory price of half the original 3.6 Flash cost per million tokens.
Better intelligence for complex workflows
3.7 Flash shows strong gains over 3.6 Flash in coding tasks like debugging and issue resolution. It also achieves higher first-pass code accuracy and has improved performance in generating production-ready code as seen in
FrontierCode 1.1 Main
(43.6% vs 34.4%) and
DeepSWE v1.1
(65.3% vs 49.0%).
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 and parity based on a reference input, whether it’s 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 vs 1538.
For knowledge-dense fields like 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% vs 22.0%), an eval for testing a model’s ability to process complex documents. It also surpasses 3.6 Flash in
AutomationBench
, demonstrating it can more effectively complete real-world business workflows (30.4% vs 17.0%).
Better developer experience and price
Gemini 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. It thinks more diligently, putting in more effort into multi-step planning and tool calls. A more disciplined execution means less manual oversight and fewer retries across engineering workflows.
3.7 Flash is available through the end of the year at an introductory price
1
of $0.75/1M input tokens and $3.75/1M output tokens. This price combined with the enhanced model performance enables developers and customers to scale production-ready agents cost effectively.
Early customer feedback is highlighting 3.7 Flash’s performance and precision, achieving results that are significantly better than 3.6 Flash at a low cost.
Improving Gemini Spark with 3.7 Flash
Gemini Spark, available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in over
160 countries
, will be using Gemini 3.7 Flash starting today. We launched Spark at I/O as your personal AI agent that runs 24/7, taking action on your behalf while under your direction. This model update makes Spark more efficient for knowledge work with improved tool use for Google Workspace apps, delivering improved accuracy and output quality for complex, multi-skill workflows.
With 3.7 Flash, Gemini Spark can turn ideas into action more efficiently by consolidating files, drafting emails, and updating status documents.
