Where these figures come from
Every Google figure is read from 5 vendor pages:
- https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/pricing
- https://cloud.google.com/products/compute/pricing
- https://cloud.google.com/speech-to-text/pricing
- https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech/pricing
- https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/pricing
The weekly check re-reads each page and records any change with both the old and new figure. Prices are USD list rates excluding tax; negotiated and volume pricing are not modelled.
