Task budgets

How these guides are checked
AI sources enter a weekly review queue. Latest targeted source check: October 29, 2026 (video guide); other AI guides were checked October 28. Earlier observations retain their dates; this is not a continuous monitoring guarantee.
Each guide links to official rate or policy pages and shows the actual observation date. Calculated scenarios are labeled as assumptions. We distinguish current observations from announced effective dates and do not call a first observation a price change.
These are public-source explanations, not purchased-product tests or guarantees about a future bill. Product access, region, tax, legacy plans, and optional settings can change the result. See our editorial policy or contact us about a correction.
October 28 source review completed. The video guide now marks the retired Gemini API Veo previews as historical; the token guide separates named-model pricing from lifecycle and access restrictions. Prior observations remain available.
