What is Gemini Pro / Google AI Pro and how much does it cost?
Google AI Pro (formerly called Gemini Advanced) is Google's standard professional subscription for the Gemini AI platform. As of June 2026, it costs $19.99 per month with no annual option listed on the official page.
It sits between the $7.99 AI Plus tier and the $249.99 AI Ultra tier and is the plan recommended for most professional and power-user workflows.
What is the difference between AI Plus, AI Pro, and AI Ultra?
Google offers three paid AI subscription tiers designed for different usage levels:
- AI Plus ($7.99/month) – Entry-level paid plan with 200 GB of storage and enhanced access to Gemini models. Suitable for light professional use.
- AI Pro ($19.99/month) – Standard professional plan with Deep Research, Gems, a 1 million token context window, Workspace integration, and 2–5 TB of storage.
- AI Ultra ($249.99/month) – Premium tier featuring Deep Think reasoning, Veo 3.1 video generation, Project Genie (US), Gemini Agent (US), 30 TB of storage, and YouTube Premium.
What is Deep Research and how many times can I use it on AI Pro?
Deep Research is Gemini's autonomous research mode that can browse multiple sources, analyze information, and generate cited reports based on your query.
Google AI Pro includes up to 20 Deep Research sessions per day, compared to 5 sessions per month on the free tier. AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers can also run Deep Research using the Gemini 3.1 Pro model for more advanced results.
Since May 2026, users can upload their own files and images to be included as research sources.
What are Gems in Gemini?
Gems are customizable AI assistants that let you create specialized AI personas for recurring tasks and workflows.
For example, you can create a Gem that acts as a code review expert, SEO strategist, data analyst, or writing coach. The Gem maintains its instructions across conversations to provide more consistent results.
Google AI Pro subscribers receive full access to Gems, while free users have limited access.
How do usage limits work on Google AI Pro?
Google AI Pro uses compute-based usage limits rather than fixed daily message caps. Your available quota refreshes every five hours until a weekly limit is reached.
Simple text prompts consume less quota than advanced tasks such as Deep Research, image generation, extended reasoning, video analysis, or large coding projects.
If you reach the limit for a specific model, Gemini automatically falls back to the Flash model instead of completely restricting access.
Does Gemini Pro support languages other than English?
Yes. Gemini supports more than 40 languages.
Some features, including Deep Research and certain Gem templates, were initially released in English and gradually expanded to additional languages throughout 2025 and 2026.
Is Google AI Pro available in my country?
Google AI Plus, AI Pro, and AI Ultra are available in more than 140 countries and territories worldwide.
In the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, users must be at least 18 years old to subscribe. In most other regions, the minimum age is 13.
Availability and feature sets within the European Union may change after July 27, 2026 due to Digital Markets Act (DMA) regulatory requirements.
