Google Launches Antigravity 2.0 with $100/Month AI Ultra Plan
Google has launched Antigravity 2.0 alongside a new AI Ultra subscription tier at $100/month, offering 5x the usage limits of the existing AI Pro plan. The release also includes an updated desktop app and a CLI tool aimed at developers and power users.
Original sourceGoogle is pushing further into the paid AI tools market with the launch of Antigravity 2.0 and a new AI Ultra plan priced at $100 per month. The Ultra tier delivers five times the usage capacity of the AI Pro plan, making it the clearest signal yet that Google is segmenting its AI access by workload intensity rather than just features.
The updated desktop app and new CLI tool ship alongside the model upgrade, giving builders more ways to integrate Antigravity into existing workflows without routing everything through a browser. The CLI in particular matters for teams running automated pipelines or wanting to script interactions directly from their development environment.
For operators, the pricing structure now creates a sharper decision point. AI Pro likely covers casual or moderate usage, but teams running production workloads or high-frequency queries will need to evaluate whether the 5x headroom in Ultra justifies the cost jump. There is no middle tier announced, so the gap between plans is significant.
The desktop app update suggests Google is taking the local tooling experience more seriously, competing more directly with tools like Claude for Desktop and similar native clients from other frontier labs. Builders who have been waiting for a more stable, offline-capable interface now have a concrete option to evaluate.

Panel Takes
The Builder
Developer Perspective
“The CLI tool is the real win here for anyone running automated workflows. Native command-line access means you can stop hacking around browser-based rate limits and actually build reliable pipelines. Test the Ultra usage ceiling early though, because 5x Pro still has a ceiling.”
The Skeptic
Reality Check
“A $100/month tier with vague '5x usage' framing is not a pricing model, it is a placeholder until Google figures out where the real demand sits. Until there are hard numbers on what Pro limits actually are, the Ultra value proposition is impossible to evaluate honestly.”
The Founder
Business & Market
“Google is clearly targeting the same professional and small-team segment that Anthropic and OpenAI have been monetizing at the $20 to $200 range. The $100 price point is deliberate positioning, not arbitrary. If Antigravity 2.0 delivers on quality, this tier will convert fast among teams already in the Google ecosystem.”
