| Which plan to pick | Skip Plus unless you are happy with Grok. Premium is the realistic starting point if you want Claude or OpenAI models, and budget for the extra usage billing on top of the $30. There is also a $200 Ultra plan with 50x the Plus usage for people who live in it. | 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. | Start on the free Starter plan to see if the agent builds what you have in mind. Move to Core as soon as you want to keep an app online. Watch your credit usage in the first month, because that tells you whether Core is enough or you are better off on Pro. |
