Context Window Limits: Single-Prompt vs RAG

Understanding when to use extended in-context prompts versus vector database retrieval is critical for latency, cost, and hallucination prevention.

Model Family Context Limit Ideal Document Volume Optimal Use Case
Google Gemini 2.5 Pro 2,000,000 tokens ~2,500 – 4,000 pages Whole-repository code analysis, multi-hour video transcript processing
Claude 3.7 Sonnet 200,000 tokens ~200 – 350 pages Complex legal contract review, institutional financial analysis
OpenAI GPT-4o 128,000 tokens ~120 – 200 pages Fast omnichannel agents, structured JSON schema parsing
DeepSeek-R1 / V3 64,000 – 128,000 tokens ~80 – 160 pages Private sovereign reasoning, math verification, on-premise hosting
