Google’s new AI Plus subscription delivers Gemini 3 Pro, creative tools, and 200 GB of cloud storage for $7.99 per month. Available in 35 markets, the mid‑tier plan bridges the gap between the free tier and the $19.99 AI Pro offering, providing double the video‑generation credits of the free tier and a family‑sharing option.
What’s Included in Google AI Plus
The AI Plus plan grants access to a suite of AI‑powered features designed for creators and everyday users:
- Gemini 3 Pro within the Gemini app for advanced search and code assistance.
- Nano Banana Pro creative‑tool suite for image and content generation.
- Flow AI filmmaking tools for video creation.
- NotebookLM research and writing assistance.
- Limited access to Veo 3.1 Fast and Gemini integration in Chrome.
- 200 AI credits per month for video generation (double the free tier).
- 200 GB of cloud storage, shareable with up to five family members.
Promotional Offer
New subscribers receive a 50 percent discount for the first two months, paying $3.99 before the price returns to $7.99.
How AI Plus Fits Into Google’s Subscription Ladder
Google’s AI subscription lineup now includes three tiers:
- Free tier – limited Gemini access and 100 video‑generation credits.
- AI Plus – mid‑tier plan at $7.99 with expanded tools and double video credits.
- AI Pro – premium plan at $19.99 offering the highest credit limits, full Flow and Whisk usage, Gemini 3 Pro in Search, and 2 TB of storage.
Google One Premium customers with a 2 TB storage plan will automatically receive AI Plus benefits at no extra cost, ensuring consistent value across subscription levels.
Competitive Positioning
By pricing AI Plus at $7.99, Google directly challenges other consumer AI subscriptions that charge around $8 per month. The plan’s combination of Gemini 3 Pro, creative tools, and modest storage makes it an attractive option for users already invested in the Google ecosystem.
Outlook for AI Plus Adoption
The rollout to 35 regions marks Google’s most aggressive consumer‑AI pricing strategy to date. Success will depend on how effectively the promotional discount converts free‑tier users and whether the feature set meets the expectations of both casual and power users. As the AI subscription market matures, Google’s tiered approach aims to capture a broader user base while balancing feature access with cost.
