Was ist Gemini 4 Argon?
Gemini 4 Argon is Google DeepMind’s frontier model, announced on 30 September 2026 as the first model of the Gemini 4 generation. According to Google, it is built for long, multi-step work in software engineering, enterprise knowledge work such as law and finance, and cybersecurity defence, and its output limit rises to 1 million tokens from 64,000.
At announcement it was available only to trusted cyber defenders through the Fairwind Program; Google says wider access starts with paid API customers and Google AI Ultra subscribers, with no date given. The introductory API price is $2 per million input tokens and $10 output (cached input 95% off), rising to $4 / $20 after the introductory period. A plain-language guide: Gemini 4 Argon erklärt.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
How much does Gemini 4 Argon cost per 1M tokens?
Gemini 4 Argon costs $2.00 per 1M input tokens and $10.00 per 1M output tokens. At a typical 4:1 input-to-output mix that blends to about $3.60 per 1M tokens.
How much does Gemini 4 Argon cost per month?
A small-team workload of 20M input and 5M output tokens a month costs about $90 on Gemini 4 Argon. A side project (1M in / 0.25M out) costs roughly $4.50.
What is a cheaper alternative to Gemini 4 Argon?
Mistral 7B is the strongest cheaper option in our database at $0.0220 per 1M blended — about 99% less than Gemini 4 Argon. It is also open-weight, so self-hosting is an option.
Can I run Gemini 4 Argon locally?
No. Gemini 4 Argon is a closed, API-only model — the weights are not released, so it cannot be self-hosted.
Why does Gemini 4 Argon charge more for output than input?
Output tokens are generated one at a time and cannot be batched the way a prompt can, so they cost the provider more to serve. Gemini 4 Argon charges 5× more for output, which is why prompt-heavy workloads are far cheaper to run than generation-heavy ones.
