Argon led GPT-6 Astra on one coding test, trailed it on another and tied it on a cybersecurity benchmark. Google is testing the model with trusted defenders before wider access.
The model targets complex workflows, network defense and software engineering, with API pricing set at $2 per 1 million input tokens and $10 per 1 million output tokens.
The model is being released in phases while Google conducts a pre-release safety evaluation with the U.S. government and expands safeguards against misuse.
