| Which plan to pick | Pro is the sweet spot for an individual: cheap, unlimited autocomplete and enough credits for a few agent tasks a week. Only move to Pro+ if you find yourself buying extra credits every month. | 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. | Stay free if you only download models or use HuggingChat. Pay the $9 for PRO the moment you want to host a demo or use GPU Spaces regularly. Anything heavier, like a private model for your app, is billed by the hour on top. |
