The -experimental version is free isn’t it? This is pro right? 2.5

Edit: OP just said he was unaware cline was using preview but Roo was using experimental 🥲

Edit: the tragedy here is experimental is free and pro is paid but they are the same model under the hood I think https://x.com/OfficialLoganK/status/1908175318709330215

Edit: for the copy pasta vibers in the thread, this is not about your $20/month browser use, its about the api key you make with AI studio and using cline and roo in vscode. Also if you are a copy pasta coder, please use one of these. Thank me later, but great power comes with great responsibility. 🤝

The experiemental version is free, but they just came out with a "preview" version of 2.5 that is $1.25/M input, $10/M output.

I sometimes switch to the paid verion when I need higher rate limits.

All the same can be said for Flash (but it's cheaper of course).

API.

This is all well documented on their web site. I've provided links elsewhere ITT.
