Official-document research
Based on the cited documentation. We did not use the product, purchase a plan, or run quality, speed or reliability tests in this review.
Consider it for
- Maintainers identifying legacy model dependencies
- Readers interpreting the original launch specifications
Choose another approach if
- New production integrations requiring a supported endpoint
- Buyers treating current Pro prices as a 2.0 Pro offer
Pricing and conditions
Current terms unconfirmed
No current price for gemini-2.0-pro-exp or -02-05 was established from the official API price page. Prices for 2.5 Pro and newer models are different offers and are deliberately not quoted here. The old freemium category is historical, not a current access entitlement. No currency amount, tax treatment, billing cycle, regional eligibility, quota or promotion for this release is confirmed.

Pricing or terms sourceCode, model and service licensing
This was access to a hosted Google model, not a downloadable model-weight or self-hosting license. Current Gemini API terms govern current service use and retain restrictions on extracting underlying models; they do not prove the contract that applied to a 2025 experiment or grant renewed access to it. Review the replacement service's terms and data rules separately.
Basis and limits of the recorded score
The previous 4.6/5 editorial score is retained without recalculation. The original scoring worksheet was not available; this documentation review does not validate that score or a ranking, particularly for a historical experimental model.
Overview
This record covers Google's Gemini 2.0 Pro Experimental, not today's Gemini Pro application or a later 2.5/3.x Pro model. The February 2025 announcement describes a two-million-token context, multimodal input with text output, and access to tools such as Google Search and code execution. These are historical vendor specifications; they do not prove that every large input was handled accurately or that the model exposed a dedicated thinking mode.
The Gemini API changelog names gemini-2.0-pro-exp and gemini-2.0-pro-exp-02-05 in its November 4, 2025 notice, scheduling shutdown for December 9, 2025. That date has passed. Use this page to identify an old integration and plan a move to a supported model, rather than as a current procurement offer. Other cloud access was not checked, and no API call was made to confirm an endpoint's response.
A migration should inventory the exact model ID, input formats, tool calls and acceptance cases before choosing a replacement. A successor's price and context limit cannot be assigned to this release. The current Gemini API price page does not provide a quote for these two IDs; the legacy freemium filter is not a promise of present free or paid access.
