Overview
The Google DeepMind Gemini API provides access to a family of cutting-edge AI models, including Gemini 3 Pro, Gemini 3 Flash, and Gemini 2.5 Flash. These models are designed for a variety of tasks, ranging from multimodal understanding (text, image, video, audio, PDF) to content generation. The API offers both server-to-server (WebSocket) and client-to-server (ephemeral tokens) implementations for real-time voice and video interactions. Gemini's architecture allows for tasks like function calling, search grounding, and structured outputs. The Live API enables low-latency, real-time voice and video interactions, with capabilities like Voice Activity Detection and session management. Use cases span across creating AI chatbots, processing large scale tasks, and building real-time AI video applications. The API is accessible through Google AI Studio and Vertex AI Studio.
