Smarter reasoning and planning** Gemini 3 Pro handles complex, multi step thinking with more stability. Tools that depend on long chains of logic or analysis will feel smoother and more reliable. **2. More confident multimodal understanding** It processes text and images together with better accuracy. If your Pickaxe uses screenshots, product photos, charts, or any visual input, expect stronger performance out of the box. **3. Clearer instruction following** The model sticks closer to the style and constraints you give it. Great for agents that need consistent tone or strict formatting. **4. Better for long conversations** Long context handling has improved, which means deeper memory, better follow through, and more coherence over extended chats. ### 💡 Great use cases • Research and expert analysis • Agents that handle multi step tasks • Tools mixing text and visuals • Customer support and workflow automation • Data heavy or long input Pickaxes ### 🚀 Ready to try it? Just switch your model to **Gemini 3 Pro** [in the builder](https://pickaxe.co/builder) and start testing. We’d love to hear your feedback and see what you build with it. Happy creating, everyone! 🌟 ---

Heads up, the cost for Gemini 3 is higher than Gemini 2.5. From the [Gemini Pricing Page](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/pricing): ![GeminiPricing](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/pickaxeproject/original/2X/e/e2685ddf1f6cbc32fca5cf329ef2f8bb0d5fdf38.png) ---

Quick calculations: Output 3000 tokens (this is a lot) Input 400 tokens 500 messages The cost is around ~18 $, IF every message reaches the maximum input and output token amount. After testing the model it works really well and seemed to be quite cost effective. Didn’t get many messages (input + ouput combined ) to reach even 0.01 $, even with those limits set up. I see great future for Gemini 3 Pro. ---

As the big AI companies start moving toward profitability, I expect more of the new models to come with new higher prices. ---

Yeah, I also did a text if I’d replace my sonnet 4.5 with gemini 3 pro would the cost go down and quality stay the same. seems yes! I was very happy with the output quality and cost saving was very good. 👍
