Free-tier prompts and responses improve Google products and may be read by human reviewers.\n\n**Together AI Inference.** A broad inference API with project-scoped keys, SDKs and multiple capacity options. Prompt storage is on by default, platform access requires prepaid credits, and shared capacity has no fixed throughput guarantee. Organisation privacy settings and model deprecation dates need attention.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gemini Developer API\n\n1. Never send customer data through a free-tier key. Link billing first\n2. Don't request Gemini 4 Argon here. It has no Developer API model ID as of 5 October 2026\n3. Back off exponentially on 429 RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED and 503, and don't retry 400, 402 or 403\n4. Stop sending temperature, top_p and top_k. They've been deprecated since 2026-07-21\n5. Validate structured output yourself. The docs don't promise schema-constrained decoding\n\n### Together AI Inference\n\n1. Create a project-scoped key and set TOGETHER_API_KEY. Avoid deprecated legacy keys.\n2. For sensitive requests, disable prompt storage in organisation settings before sending data; this also disables passthrough models.\n3. Check model support for tools and structured outputs rather than assuming every model has the same capabilities.\n4. Back off on 429 and 503 responses. Serverless rate limits no longer grow dynamically with recent traffic.\n5. Check the deprecation schedule before choosing a model; Llama 3.3 70B Turbo is scheduled to leave serverless on 22 October 2026.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Gemini Developer API or Together AI Inference?\n\nTogether AI Inference scores 67.8 (B) on agent readiness against Gemini Developer API's 65.5 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Gemini Developer API leads on agent ergonomics, payments \u0026 pricing and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do Gemini Developer API and Together AI Inference need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Gemini Developer API and Together AI Inference without installing anything?\n\nYes. Gemini Developer API has a hosted endpoint at https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta and Together AI Inference at https://api.together.ai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gemini-api-vs-together-inference.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gemini-api-vs-together-inference.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"gemini-api\", \"b\": \"together-inference\"}`.
