Yes, Google Antigravity is free to use. Google's pricing page lists an Individual plan with no subscription that includes a range of agent models, unlimited Tab completions, unlimited Command requests and basic weekly rate limits. Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers get higher rate limits and a flexible AI credit pool, and businesses can access it through Google Cloud.
Antigravity is Google's agentic development platform. It's a coding environment where AI agents can plan, write and test code for you, and it comes as a desktop app, an IDE, a command-line tool and an SDK. It's aimed at developers, but plenty of founders and marketers use it to build small tools and websites. If you've been weighing it up against paid coding assistants, the free plan is more generous than you might think.

Google's homepage sums up the free side simply: Antigravity is available at no charge for developers. It's available on macOS, Windows, Linux and Googlebook.
What the free plan includes
The Individual plan covers the core of the product. Tab completions are the inline code suggestions that appear as you type, and Command requests are the instructions you give in the editor. Both are unlimited on the free plan, according to Google.
The limit is on agent work. Free users have basic weekly rate limits for the agent models, which means long agent sessions will eventually pause until your allowance resets. Google doesn't publish a fixed number on the pricing page, so you'll see the limit in the product as you approach it.
The four parts of Antigravity
- Antigravity App: a command centre for running several local agents in parallel, grouped into projects, with scheduled messages for routine tasks.
- Antigravity CLI: a terminal-first way to run coding agents, execute shell commands and manage background subagents.
- Antigravity IDE: the full agent-first editor, with the agent manager and artifacts.
- Antigravity SDK: for prototyping your own agents on top of Antigravity's harness with short Python scripts.
The Gemini CLI change free users should know
Here's a detail that catches out people who were using Google's older free tool. Google's Gemini CLI documentation now carries a banner saying Gemini CLI was replaced by Antigravity CLI on 18 June 2026 for unpaid tier and Google One users. So if you were using Gemini CLI on a personal Google account for free, Antigravity is where Google now points you. My guide to Gemini CLI covers the older tool for anyone still on a paid route.
Making the weekly limit last
Because the free plan limits agent use by the week, how you work matters more than what you build. A few habits stretch the allowance a long way:
- Give the agent one clear task at a time rather than a vague brief like make the site better.
- Use Tab completions and Command requests, which are unlimited, for small edits you could guide yourself.
- Ask the agent to plan first and approve the plan before it writes code.
- Keep projects small and well organised so the agent spends less effort finding its way around.
- Save big refactors for the start of your week, when your allowance has just reset.
Working this way also gives you better results. Agents do their best work on small, specific jobs with a clear finish line.
How to start using Antigravity for free
- Go to the Antigravity site and download the version for your operating system.
- Sign in with your Google account.
- Open a project folder, or start a new one.
- Try Tab completions as you type, then give the agent a small, clear task.
- Check the artifacts and tests the agent produces before you accept its changes.
Who the free plan suits
The Individual plan suits a solo founder building a landing page or an internal tool, a marketer automating a reporting script, or a developer who wants to see how agent-first coding feels before paying for anything. It's less suited to a team shipping code every day, because the weekly agent limit applies per person and there are no admin controls on the free tier. For that, the Google Cloud route exists.
When an upgrade is worth it
If you hit the weekly agent limit regularly, Google AI Pro is the next step and adds a flexible AI credit pool on top of higher limits. Ultra is pitched at people using Antigravity as their main daily tool. For a team, Google says Cloud customers can access the app, CLI and IDE extensions under Google Cloud terms, with spend caps across API and subscription plans and central admin controls.
Want AI doing the heavy lifting in your marketing?
I build the systems that handle the boring 80 percent, so you get your week back. Done properly, with the human kept in.
If you're comparing Antigravity with other AI editors, my comparisons of Windsurf and Cursor and Cursor and VS Code cover the main alternatives.
My verdict
Google Antigravity is free for individuals, and the free plan is enough to learn it and build small projects. The weekly agent limit is the only thing you'll bump into. Start free, keep your agent tasks small and specific, and only move to Google AI Pro once the limit is getting in the way most weeks.
