Google has formally introduced a new tiered membership framework for its Gemini AI service. This framework is segmented into three distinct levels: Free, Google AI Pro, and Google AI Ultra. Users on the Free tier can access the fundamental capabilities of Gemini 2.5 Pro, encompassing a set number of deep searches, image creation, and research report functionalities. For subscribers opting for the Pro tier, a monthly fee of $19.99 is applicable, which grants them significantly expanded usage rights. On the other hand, Ultra tier subscribers are required to pay a hefty monthly fee of up to $249.99, in return for which they receive a full-fledged service experience. A noteworthy aspect of this program is that students in the U.S. who successfully verify their identity and link a credit card before October 6 are eligible to receive a complimentary year of Pro service. The implementation of this membership system underscores Google's strategic vision for the commercialization of AI services, emphasizing the lucrative potential of premium AI offerings. It is anticipated that a growing number of companies will emulate this approach and introduce analogous tiered services in the foreseeable future.
