Gemini 4 Argon API in Sri Lanka

Prices are shown in LKR to make model costs easier to estimate and manage for Sri Lankan teams, with the published US dollar rate beside each.

For scale: 1,000 requests of about 3,000 tokens in and 1,000 out cost LKR 5,438 — a long prompt and a page of answer each. Every rate is published and stays the same from one request to the next. See every model.

Rupee prices are our published US dollar rates converted at LKR 330.00 to the dollar, our rate for October 2026 — the same rate your invoice uses.

Argon is the first Gemini 4 model, and Google aims it at long, multi-step work in finance, law, coding and science. Independent tests mostly agree on where it is strong: it ranked first of 43 models on the Vals Index, which covers finance, legal, tax and coding tasks, and tied for third on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, level with GPT-6 Astra and Claude Fable 5.1.

Its most useful trait may be restraint. On Artificial Analysis’s AA-Omniscience test, which penalises wrong answers but not refusals, it hallucinated 15% of the time — the lowest of any model scoring that high on the index. It is more willing than its rivals to say it does not know.

It reads text, images and PDFs in a window of about a million tokens, and you choose how hard it thinks, from low to high. Web search, reading a URL and running Python are built in: ask for one as a tool, and sources come back as citations.

• Finance, legal and tax analysis across long documents.
• Research questions where a confident wrong answer is worse than none.
• Grounded answers with sources, using its built-in web search.
• Agents that call your tools over many steps.

• Not the strongest coder. Google’s own table puts it behind Claude Opus 5.5 on Terminal-Bench 4.0, and independent reviews say it trails Anthropic’s newest models on agentic coding.
• It refuses more readily than most, so an application should have a plan for questions it will not answer.
• Google’s launch pricing ends on 30 November, and the rate on this page goes up with it.
• Video input and Google’s million-token answers are not available through our API yet; answers are capped at about 65K tokens.

Roar AI provides access to Gemini 4 Argon through the Roar AI gateway, with usage billed in LKR and no foreign card needed. Developers can use Gemini 4 Argon alongside other supported models without maintaining a separate integration for every provider.

Google publishes no Sinhala or Tamil test results for Argon. If your users write in either language, try it on real messages before you build on it.

Use the OpenAI SDK you already have — point it at Roar AI and name the model. Read the docs.

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(base_url="https://api.roar-ai.com/v1", api_key="roar_live_…")

reply = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gemini-4-argon",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Summarise this contract in plain English."}],
)

Gemini 4 Argon is a frontier model, and requests are processed on international infrastructure, outside Sri Lanka.

Roar AI’s locally hosted model is separate and is labelled as such: if a workload has to stay in the country, Qwen 3.8 27B (Colombo) runs on our own server in Colombo.
