Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. Each score is estimated for that model; a relative can inform a sparse estimate but never sets a floor, so a newer release can score below an earlier one. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track Gemini 3.8 Live, but no weighted text-model benchmark result is published on the site yet. This page shows the metadata and separate protocol evidence we can verify now; a BenchLM score will appear only if compatible public evaluations land.

Gemini 3.8 Live is a proprietary model with a 128K context window. No explicit reasoning mode is documented in this profile.

Available as the stable `gemini-3.8-live` Live API model, with Google AI Studio, Gemini app, Vertex AI, and Google Search Live access listed on the model card. The launch announcement adds real-time troubleshooting inside Search Live, a private preview in Gemini Enterprise, automatic detection and mid-conversation switching across 97 supported languages, and near real-time visual input. All audio output is watermarked with SynthID.

Google’s September 15 Gemini 3.8 Audio card describes the default Live model with 128K input context and audio and text output. Its voice evaluations stay separate from weighted text-model scores; Extended Thinking results are not attributed to this row.

Gemini 3.8 Live sits in the Gemini 3.8 Live family with Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking. Its explicit predecessor is Gemini 3.1 Flash Live Preview. Speech or voice evidence appears above; text-model benchmark coverage remains empty.

Questions

How does Gemini 3.8 Live perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Gemini 3.8 Live has published speech or voice results in Gemini 3.8 Audio model evaluation. Those results remain separate from the weighted text-model ranking, so this profile does not assign a BenchLM score or overall rank. Use the linked evaluation's metric and run conditions to compare speech systems.

Which sibling models are related to Gemini 3.8 Live?

Gemini 3.8 Live belongs to the Gemini 3.8 Live family. Related tracked variants include Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does Gemini 3.8 Live have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Gemini 3.8 Live's speech or voice results appear in Gemini 3.8 Audio model evaluation, but it has no published text-model benchmark rows. The voice evaluation does not fill the text-model coverage slots or produce an overall rank. Missing text coverage is not treated as a zero score.

What is the context window size of Gemini 3.8 Live?

Gemini 3.8 Live has a documented context window of 128K. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
