What is Gemma 4 31B?

Gemma 4 31B is the largest dense model in Google DeepMind’s open Gemma 4 family, released on 31 March 2026 under the Apache 2.0 licence. Its model card lists 30.7 billion parameters, text and image input, a 256K-token context window, configurable thinking modes and support for over 140 languages. Google reports 85.2% on MMLU Pro, 84.3% on GPQA Diamond and 80.0% on LiveCodeBench v6, against 67.6%, 42.4% and 29.1% for Gemma 3 27B without thinking.

Google estimates about 17.5 GB of memory to load it at 4-bit (Q4_0). That covers the weights only: the context window (KV cache) and supporting software need more on top. Ollama’s gemma4:31b-it-q4_K_M build is a 20 GB download, which will not fit in a 16 GB card’s memory but fits a 24 GB GPU with some room for context.

Google’s Gemini API serves gemma-4-31b-it on its free tier only, with no paid tier. Hosted, DeepInfra charges $0.20 per million input tokens and $0.40 output, the price stored in this entry. It succeeds Gemma 3 27B. If speed matters more than peak quality, the mixture-of-experts Gemma 4 26B A4B needs less memory and, according to Google, runs almost as fast as a 4B model.

Hospedar localmente ou pagar pela API?

Gemma 4 31B is open-weight, so you can run it yourself. It needs ~17.5 GB of VRAM at 4-bit. Self-hosting only beats the API once your volume is high enough to keep that hardware busy — the calculadora de self-hosting vs API calcula o ponto de equilíbrio para seu volume de tokens.

Perguntas frequentes

How much does Gemma 4 31B cost per 1M tokens?

Gemma 4 31B costs $0.200 per 1M input tokens and $0.400 per 1M output tokens. At a typical 4:1 input-to-output mix that blends to about $0.240 per 1M tokens.

How much does Gemma 4 31B cost per month?

A small-team workload of 20M input and 5M output tokens a month costs about $6.00 on Gemma 4 31B. A side project (1M in / 0.25M out) costs roughly $0.30.

What is a cheaper alternative to Gemma 4 31B?

Llama 3.1 8B is the strongest cheaper option in our database at $0.0240 per 1M blended — about 90% less than Gemma 4 31B. It is also open-weight, so self-hosting is an option.

Can I run Gemma 4 31B locally?

Yes. Gemma 4 31B is open-weight and needs about ~17.5 GB of VRAM at 4-bit quantisation.

Why does Gemma 4 31B 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. Gemma 4 31B charges 2× more for output, which is why prompt-heavy workloads are far cheaper to run than generation-heavy ones.
