API Code Example with Cost Calculation
import google.generativeai as genai
model = genai.GenerativeModel("gemini-2.0-pro")
response = model.generate_content("Summarize this document...")
# Cost calculation
usage = response.usage_metadata
input_tokens = usage.prompt_token_count
output_tokens = usage.candidates_token_count
cost = (input_tokens / 1_000_000) * 1.25 + (output_tokens / 1_000_000) * 5
print(f"Tokens: {input_tokens} in / {output_tokens} out")
print(f"Cost: {cost:.6f}")
