It needs a good one that won’t have drained your budget by lunchtime. That’s the thinking behind Junie’s new default, Gemini 3.7 Flash. It’s live now in both the IDE plugin and Junie CLI, and for a limited time it runs at 40% off base pricing.\n\n### A better default, not just a cheaper one\n\nGemini 3.7 Flash is Google’s most capable Flash model yet for coding and agents, and it’s a clear step up from the 3.6 Flash it replaces. In Google’s own testing[*](https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/models-and-research/gemini-models/introducing-gemini-3-7-flash/), it resolves far more long-horizon software-engineering tasks (DeepSWE v1.1: 65.3% vs 49.0%) and writes more production-ready code (FrontierCode 1.1: 43.6% vs 34.4%), with higher first-pass accuracy and fewer retries. On everyday coding work that means less manual oversight, not a downgrade you accept to save money.\n\nWe evaluate every model on JetBrains’ own private test set before it goes anywhere near Junie. On a private benchmark built from real, recent commits in our own projects that no model has been trained on, Gemini 3.7 Flash matched the solve rate of our premium Sonnet-5 midtier model, at roughly a third of the cost per task.\n\nSo this is a better default and a cheaper way to do premium-class work, not a downgrade you accept just to save money.\n\n### 40% OFF to start\n\nFor a limited time, Gemini 3.7 Flash runs at **40% off base pricing** in Junie. It’s already the default, so there’s nothing to set up. Open the IDE plugin or Junie CLI, run a real task, and see how much you might save.\n\n#### Subscribe to Junie blog updates", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/junies-new-default-runs-on-gemini-3-7-flash-at-40-off-base-pricing", "canonical_source": "https://blog.jetbrains.com/junie/2026/08/junie-gemini-3-7-flash/", "published_at": "2026-08-17 10:04:21+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-17 12:11:00.210095+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "large-language-models", "ai-products", "ai-tools"], "entities": ["JetBrains", "Junie", "Google", "Gemini 3.7 Flash", "Gemini 3.6 Flash", "DeepSWE v1.1", "FrontierCode 1.1", "Sonnet-5"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/junies-new-default-runs-on-gemini-3-7-flash-at-40-off-base-pricing", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/junies-new-default-runs-on-gemini-3-7-flash-at-40-off-base-pricing.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/junies-new-default-runs-on-gemini-3-7-flash-at-40-off-base-pricing.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/junies-new-default-runs-on-gemini-3-7-flash-at-40-off-base-pricing.jsonld"}}
