|---|---|---|---|
| Plans | Free Free Open-source projects and trying it out. | IndividualOur pick Free Trying agent-based coding without paying. | Free Free A quick look at what it can do. |
EssentialsOur pick $24/dev/mo billed yearly, or $30 monthly Small teams who want every pull request reviewed. | Google AI Pro $19.99/mo People who already have or want the Google AI Pro bundle. | Go $8/mo Occasional light tasks. | |
Team $48/dev/mo billed yearly, or $60 monthly Busier teams with many open pull requests. | Google AI Ultra From $99.99/mo Developers who want Antigravity as a daily driver. | PlusOur pick $20/mo Anyone who already pays for ChatGPT. | |
Advanced $72/dev/mo billed yearly, or $90 monthly Teams that want security monitoring. | Business (via Google Cloud) From $30/seat/mo Companies already on Google Cloud. | Pro From $100/mo Developers who hit the Plus limits. | |

| Which plan to pick | Start with the 14-day trial. Essentials is enough for most small teams; you only pay for developers who open pull requests. Turn on usage-based reviews ($0.25 a file) with a monthly cap if you keep hitting the hourly limit. | Start on the free Individual tier; it is the whole point. If you hit the weekly limits and you also use Gemini for other things, Google AI Pro at $19.99 is a sensible step. Ultra only makes sense for full-time developers. | If you already have ChatGPT Plus, you have Codex: just try it. If you are choosing between this and Claude Code with no existing subscription, Plus at $20 and Claude Pro at $20 cost the same, so pick whichever chat assistant you prefer. If you outgrow Plus, Pro starts at $100 and has no five-hour limit for now. The $200 tier gives new subscribers less usage than it used to, and Ultrafast mode is only on the $500 tier. |
