Description
SummaryGemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image served from Google Vertex AI. Billed per image at US$0.0336. Call it through /v1/chat/completions with stream set to false; the image is returned in the message content as a base64 data URI. Maximum output resolution is 1K. A request for a larger size returns a 1K image with the same aspect ratio at the same price. When a size is reduced, the response carries an X-Image-Resolution-Capped header with the requested and delivered size.Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct is a multimodal model for precise reasoning across text, images, and video. With improved fusion architectures (Interleaved-MRoPE, DeepStack, and text-timestamp alignment), it supports long-context understanding up to 1M tokens and handles tasks like document parsing, VQA, spatial reasoning, and GUI control. It delivers LLM-level text comprehension, stronger OCR across 32 languages, and robust performance across diverse visual conditions.
