Gemini 3.8 Flash is the newest Flash model from Google and the most capable in the line, with clear gains over Gemini 3.7 Flash in software engineering, agent tasks and multi-step reasoning. It keeps the Flash tier's balance of speed and price and the Gemini family's long context, and it reasons on every request with low, medium or high effort.
It accepts text, image, file (PDF), audio and video input and returns text, and supports tool calling, structured JSON output and streaming. It always reasons before answering, and you choose how hard it thinks with the reasoning effort setting. Gemini 3.8 Flash is commonly used for coding agents, multi-step reasoning, document and image analysis, and fast general assistants. Hormouz serves it behind an OpenAI-compatible API: point your base URL at Hormouz, drop in a Hormouz key, and existing OpenAI SDK code runs without changes.
Pricing is usage-based: $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens. There is no fixed monthly fee, and you pay only for the tokens you use. Hormouz provides stable access to the model from inside Iran, with no foreign credit card or circumvention tooling required.
Gemini 3.8 Flash is Google's most intelligent Flash model with significant gains from 3.7 Flash across software engineering, agentic tasks, and multi-step reasoning.
