 # Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview 0325 benchmark pricing
 
-There has been some concern about the low $6 price reported to run
-Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview 0325
-in the
-aider leaderboard.
-There are a couple of reasons for concern:
 
-- Aider uses litellm, which had an incorrect price for output tokens in their database at the time of the benchmark.
-- The recent benchmark of the 0506 version of Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview reports much higher costs.
+The low $6 cost reported in the leaderboard to run the aider polyglot benchmark on
+Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview 0325 was incorrect.
 
-This note reviews and audits the original 0325 benchmark results to investigate the reported price.

+Two possible causes were identified, both related to the litellm package that

-The incorrect litellm database entry does **not** appear to have affected the aider benchmark.
+- The litellm model database had an incorrect price-per-token for output tokens in their database at the time of the benchmark. This does not appear to be a contributing factor to the incorrect benchmark cost.
+- The litellm package was incorrectly excluding reasoning tokens from the token counts it reported back to aider. This appears to be the cause of the incorrect benchmark cost.

 Aider maintains and uses its own database of costs for some models, and it contained
-the correct pricing at the time of the benchmark and correctly loaded it.

+Aider appears to have

+Since litellm appears to have been excluding reasoning tokens from the token counts it reported,

 Re-running the benchmark with the same aider built from commit hash [0282574](https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/commit/0282574) 
 loads the correct pricing from aider's local db
 and produces similar costs as the original run.
