Google has repositioned Antigravity 2.0 as a unified suite for agentic AI development, introducing parallel agent orchestration, a new CLI that replaces the Gemini CLI, an SDK for custom agents, and Managed Agents in the Gemini API. The company also launched a new $100/month AI Ultra tier with 5X the usage limits of the $20 Pro plan, alongside a dedicated Android app for AI Studio.
Google repositions Antigravity as agentic development suite with CLI, SDK, and $100/month tier
Google has repositioned Antigravity 2.0 as a unified suite for agentic AI development, introducing parallel agent orchestration, a new CLI that replaces the Gemini CLI, and an SDK for building custom agents. The announcement comes alongside a new Android app for AI Studio and a $100/month subscription tier.
Agent orchestration and parallel workflows
Antigravity 2.0 places agent orchestration at its core, enabling developers to set agents working on multiple problems in parallel rather than sequentially. The application integrates with Google AI Studio, Firebase, and Android, allowing developers to export projects from AI Studio directly to their local Antigravity app with full context preservation.
CLI replaces Gemini CLI entirely
Google is launching a new Antigravity CLI that will fully replace the previous Gemini CLI. Developers can initiate agents directly from the terminal without leaving their IDE. According to Google, existing users will need to migrate their agentic workflows to the new tool.
SDK and Managed Agents infrastructure
The new Antigravity SDK allows developers to create custom agents optimized for Gemini and deploy them on their chosen infrastructure. Google is also introducing "Managed Agents" in the Gemini API, which provides agents with an "isolated Linux environment" for executing tasks.
New $100/month tier addresses usage gap
Google is launching a $100/month AI Ultra tier that offers 5X the usage limits of the existing $20/month Pro plan in Antigravity. The company claims coding agents consume more tokens than traditional chat experiences, creating demand for a mid-tier option. New and existing AI Ultra subscribers can claim $100 in bonus credits through May 25, 2026.
AI Studio arrives on Android
Google is launching a dedicated Android app for AI Studio, allowing developers to speak or type ideas into the app and create apps from example templates. Completed apps can be shared directly with others. The app is available for pre-registration in the Play Store, with limited details currently disclosed.
What this means
Google's repositioning of Antigravity directly addresses the shift toward agentic workflows in software development, particularly as Gemini 3.5 Flash delivers frontier-level performance at lower cost. The new pricing tier acknowledges that agentic development has different economics than chatbot usage, while the mandatory CLI migration signals Google's commitment to consolidating its developer tools under a single brand. The Android integration attempts to capture "inspiration moments" outside traditional development environments, though the practical utility of mobile-first development workflows remains unproven.
