Developers are expressing dissatisfaction with the new pricing structure for Google's Antigravity AI coding tool, which now utilizes AI credits. Users, particularly those with existing AI Pro subscriptions, are reporting limitations in their access to models and increased costs compared to previous usage. The changes involve credit purchases and longer refresh times, with professional developers being directed towards a much more expensive Ultra plan.

Developers using Google 's Antigravity agentic AI coding tool are complaining about higher prices following an announcement yesterday that the company is evolving its AI plans.According to the new post, AI credits can now be used for Antigravity , with subscriptions providing some built-in credits while further credits are available for purchase as needed, at a cost of $25 for 2,500.

Exactly what a credit is worth when used with Antigravity is Google's AI for Developers forum is filled with complaints, especially from those with AI Pro subscriptions. According to the, still current at the time of writing, AI Pro plans offer a"high, generous quota, refreshed every five hours until weekly limit reached." However, users report that this appears to be no longer the case , with a weekly wait between refreshes, rather than five hours, during which time they cannot continue work without purchasing credits or upgrading the plan.Antigravity supports five LLMs : these being Gemini 3.1 Pro , Gemini 3 Flash, Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.6 or Claude Opus 4.6, and OpenAI's GPT-OSS 120B. Flash is the cheapest model, tuned for efficiency. With its latest post, Google states that the Pro plan is suitable for"hobbyists, students and developers who live in the IDE," as opposed to relying on agents, and that these users can use Flash as a"taste test" for more advanced models. Professional developers are pointed towards the AI Ultra plan, for"consistent, high-volume access to our most complex models."that"before January I could use over 300 million input / 1-2 million output in a week for the Gemini Pro models," but that"this week I hit my weekly rate limits at less than 9 million input / 200 thousand output tokens."in November 2025, at which time pricing was not yet announced. The company soon pointed users towards its Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions, using vague terms such as"high","generous" and"meaningful" to describe quota limits. This wording makes it hard to know the actual limits and how they may change.Google germinates Gemini 3.1 Pro in ongoing AI model race Although the latest post appears to indicate new pricing, complaints about unexpected quota drops and inadequate limits are not new.another developer towards the end of last month."We need a transparent explanation of how these Antigravity quotas are calculated and an immediate fix for these ghost-drains on our limits." AI processing makes intensive use of compute resources, and how much resource will be used by any one prompt is unpredictable, making pricing a difficult problem for both users and providers.
