Google has introduced a new subscription tier for its artificial intelligence (AI) products, named Google AI Plus. This new plan is designed to bridge the gap between the free AI tier and the premium Google AI Pro and AI Ultra subscriptions. It provides users with affordable access to advanced AI tools and features while targeting both casual and professional users.
The company launched the plan first in Indonesia, with future expansion expected in other global markets. For now, it is the cheapest way to access Google’s Veo 3 fast video generation AI model, which is not available on the free tier.
Price and Introductory Offer
According to Google’s blog post, the AI Plus subscription is priced at IDR 75,000 per month, which translates to roughly ₹400 in Indian currency. For the first six months, Google is offering a 50% discount to new subscribers.
This makes it one of the most budget-friendly AI subscription models globally, especially when compared to the Google AI Pro plan priced at ₹1,950 per month in India and the Google AI Ultra plan priced at a steep ₹24,500 per month.
By launching AI Plus at such an attractive price point, Google aims to increase AI adoption among users who want premium features without committing to higher costs.
Benefits of Google AI Plus Subscription
Subscribers of Google AI Plus gain more access to the Gemini 2.5 Pro AI model compared to free users. However, this access remains lower than what is available under the Pro and Ultra plans.
The plan allows users to work with a 128K token context window, which offers a significant advantage over the 32K token context window in the free tier. This larger window size enables the AI model to process longer inputs and deliver more contextually accurate responses.
One of the most attractive benefits is access to Veo 3, Google’s fast AI video generation model. This feature is not available on the free plan, making AI Plus the most affordable way to create AI-generated videos. Google has not disclosed daily rate limits for Veo 3 usage under this plan, but users are expected to receive substantial value given the subscription cost.
AI Video Creation at the Lowest Price
With AI Plus, Google has made AI-driven video creation more affordable than ever. Veo 3 allows users to generate high-quality videos quickly, making it appealing for content creators, marketers, educators, and casual users experimenting with AI video technology.
This move makes Google a direct competitor to other AI companies offering video generation services at higher prices. By positioning Veo 3 within the AI Plus plan, Google has created a powerful incentive for users to upgrade from the free tier.
Access to Gemini AI Across Apps
Another highlight of the Google AI Plus plan is the integration of Gemini AI into Google’s workspace ecosystem. Subscribers will have access to Gemini’s side panel across core apps such as:
Gmail
Google Docs
Google Slides
Google Sheets
Google Drive
This feature allows users to leverage AI assistance while writing emails, creating presentations, managing data sheets, or drafting documents. With Gemini AI integrated directly into the workspace, productivity and creativity are enhanced across multiple tasks.
Extra Tools and Cloud Storage
Along with AI support in workspace apps, Google AI Plus subscribers also get access to additional creative tools. The subscription includes Flow, a video creation app, and Whisk, an image-to-video generation app. These apps expand the possibilities for creators, enabling them to convert ideas and images into polished video content.
Furthermore, Google has bundled 200GB of cloud storage with the AI Plus plan. This additional storage can be used across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos, ensuring that users have sufficient space to store files, emails, and multimedia projects generated with AI tools.
How AI Plus Fits in Google’s Subscription Ecosystem
Google currently offers multiple AI subscription plans catering to different user groups.
Free Tier: Limited access with Gemini AI model capped at a 32K token context window.
AI Plus Plan: Affordable tier priced at IDR 75,000, with 128K token context, Veo 3 access, and workspace integration.
AI Pro Plan: Premium tier at ₹1,950 per month in India, offering advanced features and higher usage limits.
AI Ultra Plan: Enterprise-level subscription priced at ₹24,500 per month, aimed at businesses and professionals with heavy AI workloads.
The AI Plus plan sits comfortably in the middle, targeting individuals and small teams seeking affordability without compromising on essential features.
Why Google Launched AI Plus
The rapid rise of AI applications in everyday life has created demand for mid-range subscription models. While free tiers attract casual users and Ultra tiers cater to enterprises, many individuals and professionals need advanced AI tools at affordable rates.
By launching AI Plus, Google hopes to capture this middle segment of users. This move also strengthens its competitive position against rivals like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Anthropic, which are also expanding their AI subscription offerings.
Potential Expansion Beyond Indonesia
Although the AI Plus plan is currently available only in Indonesia, Google is expected to roll it out in other countries soon. Markets such as India, Europe, and the United States are likely to receive the subscription next.
Considering the pricing gap between free and Pro tiers, AI Plus has strong potential to attract millions of users globally once expanded.
The launch of the Google AI Plus subscription plan marks a significant step in making advanced AI more affordable and accessible. Priced at IDR 75,000 (around ₹400 per month), and with a 50% discount for the first six months, the plan offers incredible value.
Subscribers gain extended access to the Gemini 2.5 Pro model with a 128K token context window, integration of Gemini AI in Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drive, access to Veo 3 video generation, Flow, and Whisk apps, plus 200GB of cloud storage.
For content creators, professionals, and small businesses, this plan strikes the perfect balance between cost and functionality. By bridging the gap between free and Pro tiers, AI Plus is set to become one of Google’s most attractive subscription options in the coming months.
