Count Tokens (Gemini)
Counts the number of tokens in text using gemini tokenization. useful for estimating costs, checking input limits, and optimizing prompts before making api calls.
Why this helps
Guessing whether a prompt fits within limits or blows the budget, then finding out only after it fails.
- Estimates cost before you run an expensive generation
- Confirms text fits within model input limits
- Removes guesswork from prompt sizing
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Gemini to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation under Automations, or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Describe the outcome: when I text content to Telegram, have Gemini count the tokens.
- 4Select the New Message Received trigger and the channel for run reports.
- 5Send a test block of text and confirm the token count comes back.
