The low rate-limit really hampered my usage of 2.0 Pro and the like. Interesting to see how this plays out.

Any word on what that pricing is? I can't seem to find it
Traditionally at Google experimental models are 100% free to use on https://aistudio.google.com (this is also where you can see the pricing) with a quite generous rate limit.

This time, the Googler says: “good news! you will be charged for experimental models, though for now it’s still free”

Right but the tweet I was responding to says: "This will mark the first experimental model with higher rate limits + billing. Excited for this to land and for folks to really put the model through the paces!"

I assumed that meant there was a paid version with a higher rate limit coming out today

The parent Twitter post mentions:

    Available as experimental and for free right now in Google AI Studio + API, with pricing coming very soon!
And the pricing page [1] still does not show 2.5 yet.

I expect this might be pricier. Hoping not unusable level expensive.
Currently free, but only 50 requests/day.
Any idea what is RPM for this model?
https://aistudio.google.com/prompts/new_chat says 2 for free, but also 5, which might be the rpm when they start charging.
