Overview
What Antigravity is
Google Antigravity began as an agentic development environment that could plan, edit code, run terminal commands, operate a browser, and verify its work. The current platform is broader: Antigravity 2.0 is a standalone desktop application for orchestrating agents, while Google also offers a CLI, IDE extensions, a dedicated IDE, and an SDK.
The product is built around tasks and reviewable Artifacts rather than a chat sidebar alone. Agents can create implementation plans, code diffs, diagrams, screenshots, and browser recordings, and users can leave feedback or require approval before work continues.
Antigravity is generally available for individuals on macOS, Windows, and Linux, with a free plan and higher quotas through Google AI subscriptions. Eligible organizations can access it through Gemini Enterprise with centralized governance, spend controls, and Google Cloud terms.
Use cases
Who Antigravity is best for
The strongest fit depends on the job you need the product to complete, not the size of its feature list.
Parallel agent orchestration
Run agents or subagents across multiple projects while reviewing their progress and deliverables from one task-oriented surface.
Visual application QA
Let the browser agent exercise an interface and return screenshots or recordings that make its actions easier to inspect.
Enterprise agent workflows
Use eligible Gemini Enterprise access when centralized identity, usage controls, audit logging, privacy terms, and governance are required.
Capabilities
Core Antigravity features
Antigravity 2.0
A standalone, agent-first desktop app for synchronous conversations, asynchronous tasks, project management, and artifact review without requiring a built-in IDE.
CLI and IDE access
Use the same agent from a terminal, the standalone Antigravity IDE, or official integrations for editors including Visual Studio Code, JetBrains products, Zed, Xcode, and Visual Studio.
Parallel agents and subagents
Agents can work across projects and spawn specialized or general subagents that inherit the parent task's tool and permission boundaries.
Reviewable Artifacts
Plans, diffs, diagrams, images, screenshots, and browser recordings summarize the work and provide concrete checkpoints for feedback or approval.
Browser and terminal tools
Agents can run commands, inspect applications, read web sources, automate browser actions, and record verification evidence.
Custom integrations
MCP servers, skills, rules, plugins, hooks, sidecars, and the Python SDK can adapt Antigravity to a team's systems and development practices.
Scheduled and remote work
Schedule recurring agent messages and monitor or approve desktop sessions remotely through a browser.
Process
How the Antigravity workflow works
Step 1
Choose a surface
Use Antigravity 2.0 for visual orchestration, the CLI for terminal-first work, or an IDE integration for agent assistance beside your editor.
Step 2
Open a bounded project
Give the agent only the folders, tools, websites, and credentials needed for the task, keeping default approval and workspace boundaries in place.
Step 3
Describe the outcome
Provide acceptance criteria, relevant commands, constraints, and expected evidence so the agent can plan and verify the full job.
Step 4
Review plans and permissions
Inspect the implementation plan and approve sensitive terminal, browser, or file-system actions before allowing broader autonomy.
Step 5
Validate the Artifacts
Review diffs, screenshots, recordings, and test results, then leave targeted feedback or run an independent verification before merging or publishing.
Cost
Antigravity pricing and free plan
Individuals can use Antigravity for free with basic weekly limits. Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions raise quotas, while eligible organizations can receive Antigravity through Gemini Enterprise or consumption-based Google Cloud access.
Individual
$0/month
Access the core Antigravity products without a subscription, subject to basic weekly agent limits.
- Unlimited Tab completions and Command requests
- Access to current Gemini models and selected third-party models
- Meaningful quota refreshed weekly; capacity and limits can change
Google AI Pro
$20/month
An individual plan with higher Antigravity limits for regular experimentation and development.
- Higher weekly rate limit
- Quota refreshes every five hours until the weekly limit is reached
- Purchased AI credits can cover optional overage usage
Google AI Ultra
$100 or $200/month
Higher-capacity individual tiers intended for more frequent Antigravity use.
- $100 tier carries five times the Pro token allowance
- $200 tier carries twenty times the Pro token allowance
- Highest weekly limits and access to third-party models
Organization
Google Cloud pricing
Eligible Gemini Enterprise customers can use Antigravity with organization-level administration and consumption controls.
- Included in select Gemini Enterprise app subscriptions
- Consumption-based Agent Platform pricing is available
- Central policies, audit logs, privacy controls, and pooled usage

Assessment
Antigravity strengths and limitations
Where it stands out
- Covers desktop orchestration, terminal workflows, IDE use, and custom agent development in one ecosystem
- Artifacts make plans, diffs, screenshots, and browser verification easier to review than raw tool logs
- Parallel agents and subagents can handle independent workstreams across projects
- Free individual access includes the product's core features rather than limiting users to a short trial
- Detailed approval, workspace, browser, and sandbox controls support safer local automation
- Gemini Enterprise provides a governed path for organizations that cannot use individual consumer terms
What to consider
- Agent work can modify files, run commands, and operate websites, so incorrect instructions or excessive permissions can cause real damage
- Terminal sandboxing is documented as disabled by default outside Strict Mode and should be deliberately configured for risky work
- Free and paid quotas are capacity-dependent and Google says usage limits may change
- The product has several overlapping surfaces, making the difference between Antigravity 2.0, the IDE, CLI, extensions, and SDK confusing at first
- The original IDE's Agent Manager is being phased out in favor of Antigravity 2.0, so older tutorials may describe a changing interface
- Third-party model access and enterprise availability depend on the selected plan and organization rollout

Antigravity FAQs
What is Google Antigravity?
Google Antigravity is an agent platform for delegating multi-step computer and development work. Its current ecosystem includes the Antigravity 2.0 desktop app, a CLI, IDE integrations, a standalone IDE, and a Python SDK.
Is Google Antigravity free?
Yes. Google lists an individual plan at $0 per month with the core features and basic weekly agent limits. Google AI Pro and Ultra plans provide higher quotas, and eligible organizations can use Gemini Enterprise access.
What is the difference between Antigravity 2.0 and the Antigravity IDE?
Antigravity 2.0 is a standalone agent-first app with no built-in IDE, designed for orchestrating work across projects. The Antigravity IDE is a separate coding environment with editor features and an agent side panel. Google describes 2.0 as the future of the broader agent-management experience.
Can Antigravity run multiple agents?
Yes. It supports parallel work across projects and subagents within a task. Subagents inherit the parent agent's configured tools and security permissions.
Can Antigravity control a browser?
Yes. Its browser agent can open, read, and interact with Chrome, capture screenshots, and record actions for review. Google uses a separate browser profile and provides URL allowlists, denylists, and approval settings.
Is Antigravity safe to use on a codebase?
It includes project boundaries, command approvals, Strict Mode, browser controls, and optional terminal sandboxing, but no autonomous coding tool is risk-free. Keep permissions narrow, review plans and diffs, protect secrets, and independently test important changes.
Does Google Antigravity work for enterprises?
Yes. Eligible Gemini Enterprise subscriptions include Antigravity access with Google Cloud terms, administrative controls, audit logging, data protections, and pooled usage. Availability depends on the subscription and rollout.
Bottom line
Our Antigravity verdict
Google Antigravity has evolved from an experimental agentic IDE into a broad agent platform with unusually strong coverage across desktop, terminal, editor, and enterprise workflows. It is especially attractive to teams invested in Gemini and Google Cloud, but its power comes with operational risk: use project boundaries, approvals, sandboxing, and artifact review before granting agents wide access.
