What features you get with Google AI Pro and AI Ultra [October 2025]

At I/O 2025, Google One AI Premium (and Gemini Advanced) became “Google AI Pro,” while a higher, more expensive tier was introduced with “Google AI Ultra.”

Updated 10/25

Google AI Pro 

AI Pro is simply a rebrand that drops the explicit “Google One” connection, while being a bit snappier and shorter than “AI Premium.” In the US, it remains available for $19.99 per month.

[Updated] Gemini app 

In the Gemini app, you get “expanded” versus “limited” (on the free tier) access to:

  • 2.5 Pro (100 prompts / day)
  • Image generation and editing (1,000 images / day)
  • Veo 3.1 Fast (3 videos / day)
  • Deep Research with 2.5 Pro (20 reports / day)
  • Audio Overviews (20 audio overviews / day)
  • Scheduled actions (10 active actions at a time)
  • Spreadsheet and code analysis

There’s also the 1 million token context window, which is equivalent to 1,500 pages of text or 30,000 lines of code. In comparison, free users get a 32K context window (“around 50 pages of text”).

Gemini in Google Workspace 

The Gemini side panel and other inline features are available in: Gmail, Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Meet, and Chat. 

You also get access to Google Vids. This AI-powered video creation app lets you create, write, produce, edit, collaborate, and share videos. It’s catered towards more presentation-style videos in school or business contexts, but there are personal use cases. Specific capabilities include adding:

  • Stock images
  • GIFs
  • Video clips
  • Stickers
  • Music
  • Sound effects
  • Self recording
  • Screen record with narration
  • Screen record with video recording
  • Voiceover through the Vids recording studio

[Updated] Google Search AI Mode

AI Pro subscribers can access Gemini 2.5 Pro for more complex “Reasoning, math & code” searches. In the top-left corner, “AI Mode” is now a dropdown menu, with the “Default” model providing “Fast all-around help.”

On the web, you can access the model picker before you submit a prompt. At the moment, google.com/aimode is also where you can access Deep Search, which is powered by 2.5 Pro, to “ask more sophisticated queries and get back longer, more detailed responses.” Like Gemini’s Deep Research, responses take a few minutes. Google is performing “hundreds of searches” and reason “across disparate pieces of information” to generate a “comprehensive, fully-cited report.” Google can ask you for more details before starting the process.

The paid tier for Google’s research tool was previously called NotebookLM Plus. Like in the Gemini app, you now see a “Pro” badge next to your profile image in the top-right corner. Google AI Pro provides:

Jules is Google’s asynchronous coding agent. AI Pro subscribers get 5x higher limits (versus free users). It’s “ideal for daily coding.” You also get higher daily model requests for Gemini Code Assist and Gemini CLI.

Whisk Animate

This Google Labs experiment was announced in 2024 where images of a subject, scene, and style are used as prompts. The Whisk Animate feature uses Veo to turn images into short videos.

Flow 

At I/O 2025, Google announced Flow as an AI filmmaking suite for video creation and editing. It offers features like: Text to video, Ingredients to video, and Frames to video.

1,000 AI Credits per month 

With this new plan, Google has introduced the concept of AI Credits that apply to Whisk and Flow. Refer to the following table:

The AI Credit costs below are per generation, not per request. Some product features will create multiple generations per request. For example, in Flow, a single request may generate 2 videos.]

AI Pro subscribers can now buy “top-up AI Credits” at the following rates. They are valid for 12 months, with this ability previously just for the AI Ultra tier.

Top-up amount (USD)AI Credits
$252,500
