What is Google Antigravity?
Google Antigravity is an agent-first development platform from Google. Launched in November 2025 as an IDE, it became a desktop app, CLI and SDK with version 2.0 in 2026, letting developers run several agents in parallel and review their Artifacts. Usage is free with limits for individuals and tied to Google AI Pro and Ultra plans for more quota.

Google Antigravity overview: who it is for and what it does.
Antigravity launched on 18 November 2025 alongside Gemini 3 as an agent-optimised IDE built on a heavily modified VS Code fork. Its Manager view shows which agent owns which subtask, and agents produce Artifacts such as task lists, plans, screenshots and browser recordings so developers can audit their work.
Antigravity 2.0, released at Google I/O 2026, turned the product into a platform: a rebuilt desktop app for macOS and Windows, a CLI and an SDK. Google also moved individual users of Gemini Code Assist and Gemini CLI on free and Google AI Pro or Ultra plans to Antigravity when it stopped serving those tiers on 18 June 2026.
Antigravity has no standalone subscription. Individuals get a free quota that refreshes weekly; Google AI Pro ($20 a month) and Ultra plans raise limits, refreshing every five hours up to a weekly ceiling, with optional AI credit overages. Developers protested quota tightening in March 2026, so limits are worth checking before relying on it.
Main problem it solves
Lets developers delegate work to several agents in parallel and audit what each did, inside a Google-built development environment.

Individuals on free or Google AI plans; organisations through Gemini Enterprise on Google Cloud.
