Only provider-documented reasoning controls are shown; missing controls remain unpublished rather than inferred.
MODEL REFERENCE / GOOGLE
Google's stable low-latency native-audio Live API model for voice agents with asynchronous function calling and multimodal inputs.
PRIMARY-SOURCE VERIFIED
Google documents a 131,072-token context window. Input modalities: text + image + audio + video. Output: text + audio. Pricing status: Official paid API.
CAPABILITY CONTRACT
Only provider-documented reasoning controls are shown; missing controls remain unpublished rather than inferred.
Input modalities come from the cited official model documentation.
Output modality and output-limit claims remain separate so an undocumented token cap is not guessed.
PRICING STATUS
$0.75 input · $4.50 output per 1 million TEXT tokens (audio/video separate).
SXF preserves the provider-published native billing basis. Only calculator-eligible generative token models enter token-cost arithmetic; specialist units and input-only embeddings remain visible without forced conversion.
CAVEATS
Shown Standard prices cover TEXT tokens only: $0.75 input and $4.50 output per 1M text tokens.
AUDIO is billed at $3.00 input and $12.00 output per 1M audio tokens (Google also publishes approximate per-minute equivalents). IMAGE/VIDEO inputs cost $1.00 per 1M tokens.
A free tier is listed by Google, but the catalog displays the paid-tier Standard text rates; mixed-modality voice costs are not comparable to text-only estimates.
Google documents no supported context caching or Batch API for this model. Its interleaved reasoning is designed to avoid reasoning-induced delay.
