Google has introduced the Gemini Decisions API, powered by its new Gemini Decision 1 model, designed for fast, closed-set decisions across multimodal inputs including text, images, audio, video, and PDFs. This API can evaluate up to 1,000 yes/no, choice, and rubric-scoring questions in a single, rapid pass.

Instead of generating answer text token by token, the Gemini Decisions API scores candidate options in a single forward pass, achieving low end-to-end latency of 150-250 ms and offering cost-effectiveness at $0.10 per 1M input tokens with zero output tokens billed. This makes it ideal for applications like tool selection, policy checks, model routing, and context grading.

The API supports three decision types: yes/no (noul), multiple choice (choice), and ordered rubric (score), with each answer including a confidence score from 0 to 1. This feature provides flexibility to route ambiguous cases to a fallback mechanism or a human reviewer.
