ROBOTICS — The ER 1.6 preview that shut down on August 31 does have a successor. Gemini Robotics ER 2 is in public preview, in both standard and streaming variantsVIDEO — ER 2 judges success and failure from live video rather than still snapshots, which is what lets it catch spills, slips, and misalignments while a task is still runningDEADLINE — Next up is September 30, when gemini-omni-flash-preview is retired. The target is gemini-omni-1.1-flash, GA since August 27, and there are now under four weeks leftAPIKEY — Every remaining standard API key, restricted ones included, stops working during September. The replacement is an auth key bound to a Google Cloud service accountPRICE — Gemini 3.7 Flash keeps its introductory $0.75/$3.75 per 1M through December 31, then moves to $1.50/$7.50 on January 1, 2027. Any estimate crossing the year needs both figuresAUDIO — Gemini 3.5 Transcribe handles language detection across 85+ languages, speaker diarization, word-level timestamps, and custom vocabulary biasing of up to 1,000 termsROBOTICS — The ER 1.6 preview that shut down on August 31 does have a successor.

Measure a Managed Agent's Behavior Against Fixed Scenarios Before It Reaches Production

The public-preview Managed Agents run autonomously inside an isolated sandbox, so a small prompt or config change can quietly shift their behavior. Diffing the output once, the way you would for a single prompt, is not enough. Here is how to build a regression harness that runs fixed scenarios repeatedly and judges on pass rate, plus a shadow to canary to full promotion with automatic rollback, all with runnable Python.

Your Managed Agents Bill Has a Second Axis: Drawing a Budget Boundary Around Sandbox Runtime

Managed Agents in public preview bills for tokens and for how long its Google-hosted sandbox stays alive. A single hung run quietly drains your budget on that second axis. Here is a working Python design for wall-clock caps, idle teardown, and a concurrency ceiling.

Before You Let a Managed Agent Ship: Designing Your Own Acceptance Gate

Let the public-preview Managed Agents generate files and broken artifacts will flow straight into production. Here is how to build a verification gate that artifacts must pass before you accept them, with runnable Python and a rejection-feedback loop.
