What it is
Antigravity is Google's main coding product. It launched on 18 November 2025 alongside Gemini 3 as an IDE derived from VS Code. In May 2026 Google added Antigravity 2.0, a standalone desktop app for managing agents, plus a command-line tool and an SDK; the original editor continues as the Antigravity IDE. Since 13 October 2026 Antigravity is also built into the Gemini app for macOS.
Google's top model, Gemini 4 Argon, reached Antigravity in mid-October 2026 for paid AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers, with its own weekly-only quota on top of the Gemini 3.8 Flash quota that covers everyday work. Free Pro trials get a restricted version of the plan.
Google's other coding tools sit around it. Gemini CLI, the open-source terminal agent, was replaced by Antigravity CLI for unpaid users on 18 June 2026, and its docs say it is not optimised for Argon. Jules, Google's asynchronous cloud agent that works on GitHub repositories and opens pull requests, is still offered, with paid tiers only for personal @gmail.com accounts. Organisations buy Antigravity through Google Cloud instead.
Our review
Antigravity is cheap in a way rivals are not. Google AI Pro at $19.99 a month includes Antigravity, Jules and Gemini 4 Argon alongside the Gemini app and storage, so many developers already own the coding tools without knowing it. Google's own examples of Argon in Antigravity include closing 97 of 134 stale bug reports in under three hours.
The terms are what an employer should read first. For anyone signed in with a personal Google account, free or paid, the Antigravity terms say interactions are used to improve Google's products and machine learning, and that Google employees and contractors may review them. There is a setting to change that preference and an email address for deletion requests, but no stated retention limit. Those terms do not apply to Gemini Enterprise or Google Cloud customers, who sit under their administrator's contract instead.
Limits are hard to plan around. Paid quotas refresh every five hours up to a weekly cap, Argon has a separate weekly quota, and Google publishes no prompt or token counts for any tier. Pro subscribers on Google's developer forum report lockouts of several days once the weekly pool is spent, which matters more than the five-hour refresh suggests.
The line-up itself is the other cost. There is a desktop agent manager, an IDE, Antigravity CLI replacing Gemini CLI for some users, Jules as a separate cloud agent, and Antigravity inside the Gemini Mac app. Jules's paid tiers still work only for @gmail.com accounts, so a Workspace company cannot buy its way past the free 15 tasks a day.
For a business, the sensible route is Gemini Enterprise through Google Cloud, from $30 a seat with spending caps and admin controls. At that price the comparison stops being with a $20 consumer plan and starts being with Claude Code or Codex on their own team plans.
Where it earns its place
A freelance web developer already paying for Google AI Pro
Get an agentic IDE and a frontier model without another subscription
Antigravity and Argon come with the $19.99 plan, so the marginal cost is nil. Turn off the interaction-training preference in settings first, and expect to wait out the weekly cap during heavy weeks.

Roll out Antigravity without client code going into Google's training data
Buy through Gemini Enterprise (from $30 a seat) or Google Cloud pay-as-you-go so the Cloud terms govern data instead of the consumer Antigravity terms. Personal AI Pro accounts on work laptops are the risk to rule out.

Jules on AI Pro runs 100 tasks a day with 15 at once and opens pull requests on GitHub; the free tier allows 15 tasks a day. It works only with GitHub and only on personal Google accounts for the paid tiers.
Before you commit
- Setup
- Install the Antigravity desktop app or IDE and sign in with a Google account; paid limits apply automatically to AI Pro or Ultra accounts.
- Integrations
- Antigravity app, IDE, CLI and SDK; Jules works on GitHub repositories; business accounts get IDE extensions and API access through Google Cloud.
- Data and privacy
- Personal-account terms allow interactions to be used for training and reviewed by Google staff unless you change the setting, with no stated retention period; Gemini Enterprise and Google Cloud customers are covered by their own contract instead.
- Cost at scale
- Twenty developers on Gemini Enterprise start at $600 a month; on personal Ultra 5x plans the same team would pay about $2,000 a month.
- Limits
- Paid quotas refresh every five hours up to an unpublished weekly cap; Argon has a separate weekly quota; Jules allows 15, 100 or 300 tasks a day on Free, Pro and Ultra.
What's good
- Included with Google AI Pro at $19.99/month
- Gemini 4 Argon on paid Pro and Ultra, with its own quota
- Desktop agent manager, IDE, CLI and SDK in one family
- Business route through Google Cloud with spending caps
- Jules adds an asynchronous cloud agent for GitHub repos
What's not
- Personal-account interactions used for training and human review by default
- No published usage numbers; weekly caps can lock users out for days
- Overlapping products (app, IDE, CLI, Gemini CLI, Jules) are confusing
- Jules paid tiers only for @gmail.com accounts
Best for
Google AI Pro or Ultra subscribers who want an agent-first coding setup built around Gemini models.
Alternatives
Google Antigravity (with Gemini CLI and Jules): common questions
- Is Google Antigravity (with Gemini CLI and Jules) worth it?
