They compare it to 5.6 Terra, however https://cognition.com/frontiercode puts Terra at about 1/2 the price

Also have to compare to the recent Grok 4.6 release, which appears to straight up be better AND cheaper

Hard to understand why anyone would choose 3.7 Flash under these conditions.. is Deepmind still a frontier lab?

Artificial Analysis shows Grok 4.6 taking $1,068 to run their suite while Gemini 3.7 Flash takes $485. So it looks like Gemini 3.7 Flash is less than half the price in the real world.

Per-token cost isn't a great metric given that some use way more tokens than others.

At this point, I think they're mostly targeting Google One and Workspace subscribers, except doing worse compared to Microsoft because they don't have Microsoft's huge enterprise moat built from their DOS and Windows days.

Agree, with you but I'm still using 3.6 Flash because of tok/s/ latency/ uptime with high context. Tried Grok 4.6 and it was scoring lower on some internal benchmarks or slower.
