Upgraded from free plan to paid plan (tier 1) in Gemini AI studio and consumed around 1M tokens in few hours. I remember seeing free tier for the paid plan in the past, but it seems we are being charged for all the tokens. Looking at the pricing page, it does mention free tier for Grounding with search/maps but not for input tokens.
Can someone please confirm if there is any free tier for input tokens, requests per second etc. Considering that this exists for free plan, I will be surprised if it is not there for paid plan.
