Strengths

try current Gemini models for free
the paid tier gives a better data guarantee

Limitations

pay-per-token pricing depends on the model and is hard to forecast (e.g. Gemini 3.8 Flash: $0.75 per 1M input tokens until 31 Dec 2026, then $1.50)
on the free tier your data may be used to improve Google products
