BenchLM is tracking Gemini 3.6 Flash, but this profile is currently excluded from the public leaderboard because it still lacks enough non-generated benchmark coverage to rank safely. Only non-generated public benchmark rows appear below.

Gemini 3.6 Flash is a proprietary model with a 1M token context window. It uses explicit chain-of-thought reasoning, which typically improves performance on math and complex reasoning tasks at the cost of higher latency and token usage.

Available through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio and Android Studio, Google Antigravity, Gemini Enterprise, and the Gemini app.

BenchLM links it directly to Gemini 3.5 Flash as the earlier related model in that lineage. This profile currently has 19 of 323 tracked benchmarks. BenchLM only exposes non-generated benchmark rows publicly, so missing categories stay blank until a sourced evaluation is available.

Peer position

Exact provisional scores and ranks for the closest listed peers. A score can appear before a model clears the evidence threshold for a rank, so equal scores can have different rank states.
