Pricing
PaidThe platform uses pay-as-you-go pricing for the tools, storage, and compute resources used, with new customers getting up to $300 in free credits. Generative AI pricing starts at $0.0001 based on image input, character input, or custom training pricing for Imagen models, and text, chat, and code generation starts at $0.0001 per 1,000 characters based on input (prompt) and output (response). Custom model training pricing is based on machine type used per hour, region, and any accelerators used, available via a sales estimate or the pricing calculator. Notebooks are billed at the same rates as Compute Engine and Cloud Storage, plus separate management fees based on region, instances, and notebooks used. Pipelines start at $0.03 per pipeline run based on execution charges and resources used. Vector Search pricing is based on data size, queries per second (QPS), and number of nodes used. A pricing calculator and custom quotes from sales are available for detailed cost estimates.
