Strengths
Gemini Image Analysis detects objects in an image and returns bounding boxes and labels, identifying what appears and where.
Produces segmentation of image regions, isolating objects or areas pixel-by-pixel for finer-grained understanding.
Generates natural-language captions and detailed descriptions of image content, scenes, and context.
Answers free-form questions about an image, reasoning over its contents to respond to specific queries.

Gemini Image Analysis API: object detection, captioning, and visual Q&A
Gemini Image Analysis is Google's image-understanding model, turning images into structured information: object detection with bounding boxes, segmentation, captioning, classification, and visual question answering. Each image costs about 258 tokens to process.
Through YepAPI you call Gemini Image Analysis with one API key, with token-based pricing of $0.28 per 1M input and $1.12 per 1M output — roughly two cents per typical image analysis.
What is Gemini Image Analysis?
Gemini Image Analysis is an image-understanding model from Google, built on Gemini's multimodal capabilities. Rather than generating images, it interprets them: detecting objects and returning bounding boxes and labels, segmenting regions, writing natural-language captions, classifying content, and answering free-form questions about what an image shows. Each image is encoded at roughly 258 tokens, so analysis is inexpensive and fast. It is an image-to-text model, ideal for any application that needs to read, describe, or extract structured data from pictures rather than create them.
Build with Gemini Image Analysis via YepAPI
Run image analysis by submitting an image plus a text instruction — such as a question or a request for bounding boxes — through the YepAPI media queue with one API key. The model returns text: captions, labels with coordinates, classifications, or answers, depending on your prompt. You enqueue the request and collect the structured response, with no separate Google Cloud setup. The same key reaches video analysis and every other model, so you can build full vision pipelines that read both images and video without re-authenticating.
Gemini Image Analysis API pricing — $0.28/1M input, $1.12/1M output
Gemini Image Analysis is billed by tokens: $0.28 per 1M input tokens and $1.12 per 1M output tokens. Because each image consumes only about 258 tokens, a typical analysis costs roughly two cents, so processing thousands of images stays cheap. You pay only for the tokens used by your prompts, images, and responses, and one YepAPI balance covers it alongside every other model on the platform.
Gemini Image Analysis for visual data extraction
Gemini Image Analysis excels at turning images into structured, usable data: detecting and locating objects for inventory or moderation, captioning photos for accessibility and search, classifying user uploads, and answering questions about diagrams or documents. Bounding boxes and segmentation support downstream automation, while visual Q&A handles open-ended interpretation. For any pipeline that needs to understand image content at scale and low cost, it is a strong fit.
