Google's support page lists which Gemini models each plan keeps once the October changes land. Accounts without a subscription get Flash-Lite only, AI Plus keeps Flash but loses Pro, and only AI Pro and AI Ultra keep all three. Every plan gains an effort selector, and the usage meter stays compute-based with a five-hour refresh.

Google announced Gemini 4 Argon on September 30, 2026. The model is rolling out to a set of trusted cyber defenders through the Fairwind Program, and Google gives no date for developers, enterprises, or consumers. The introductory price is $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, and it rises to $4 and $20 when the introductory period ends. The output limit grows to 1 million tokens from 64,000. The benchmark results in the announcement are Google's own reporting, and nobody outside the program can check them yet.

Google released Gemini CLI 0.61.0 on September 23, 2026 with two security fixes. The agent now asks before it runs a build or test command after a build file changed in the same session, and before it uses flags that came from outside content. The sandbox no longer receives the host's configuration directory, API keys, or credential files. Setups that mount sensitive paths into the sandbox will now fail to start.

Google opened pre-orders for Googlebook on September 21, 2026, with prices starting at $899 and shipping from October 4, 2026. The laptops run an Android-based system with desktop foundations from ChromeOS, on Intel and Qualcomm chips paired with NPUs rated at over 45 TOPS. For anyone who writes code, the notable part is not the assistant features but a pKVM hypervisor with a Level 5 security certification, which powers an isolated Linux environment with full terminal access. Neither announcement says which Gemini features run on the device and which run in the cloud.

Google Labs has turned CC, its experimental personal agent, into one that a household shares. The agent now holds its own verified Google account, admits up to six members, and reads only the mail and files each of them hands over. It writes a shared morning brief, keeps the group calendar and task list, and fills in registration PDFs. The experiment is open on web and mobile to people 18 and older in the United States.

Google has started making Google Photos available inside Gemini Spark, the mode of the Gemini apps that carries out a task instead of answering a question. One prompt can find photos, enhance copies of them, put them in a new album, and draft an email with the link. The same job can be attached to a schedule and left running in the background. It needs a Google AI Pro or Ultra subscription and a personal account rather than a work or school one, and the Photos part is limited to people 18 or over in the United States, in English.

Google announced Gmail Live, Docs Live, and Keep Live on September 3, 2026. All three run on Gemini 3.5 Live: you talk to your inbox instead of typing a search, dictate a document that pulls context from Gmail, Drive, Chat, and the web, or turn a spoken ramble into a structured note. Gmail Live and Keep Live go to Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers, while Docs Live is limited to Pro and Ultra. Business customers on Google Workspace get all three later, and the post gives no date for that.

Google released Gemini 3.8 Flash and a security variant, 3.8 Flash Cyber, on September 2, 2026. The general model costs $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens, the same introductory rate Gemini 3.7 Flash launched with. Google states that the rate holds until December 31, 2026. From January 1, 2027 it becomes $1.50 and $7.50. The Cyber variant is not on the price list at all, because it is handed out through a vetted access program called Fairwind.

Gemini CLI runs untrusted work inside a macOS Seatbelt profile. Until 0.58.0 that profile did not stop a sandboxed process from talking to a container runtime on the same machine, and a container runtime will mount the host filesystem for whoever asks. The fix was merged on August 21, 2026 and reached a stable release on September 1, 2026. It covers the profile builder and all six built-in macOS profiles.

Agentic video understanding lets the model decide which segments of a video to open, at what frame rate, and whether to use frames, audio, or the transcript. Google launched it on September 1, 2026 for Gemini 3.7 Flash, Gemini 3.6 Flash, and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite, through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio and the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. The company reports up to 88% lower token consumption, up to 66% lower cost, and up to 7% better accuracy on standard video analysis benchmarks. The price list does not move: standard token rates apply and there is no separate fee.

Google's video model can now continue an existing clip in ten-second steps up to forty seconds total, reading up to ten seconds of prior footage instead of only the final second. A 360p draft mode runs up to 60 percent faster at a third of the cost, and finished work upscales to 1080p or 4K.

Google shipped it on August 13, 2026, 23 days after Gemini 3.6 Flash, with large gains on coding and agent benchmarks and an introductory price it labels as such. All of that holds. Four things are visible only if you open the model card instead of the launch post, and one of them is a score that went down.

Google released Gemini 3.7 Flash on August 13, just three weeks after 3.6. The gain on coding benchmarks is large: the DeepSWE v1.1 score rises from 49.0% to 65.3%, and FrontierCode 1.1 from 34.4% to 43.6%. Introductory pricing, in force through the end of 2026, is $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens — half what its predecessor launched at. The model is available through the Gemini API, in AI Studio, Android Studio, and Antigravity, and in Spark for AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.

Google's agent can now drive the desktop version of Chrome, using accounts you are already signed in to and passwords saved in the browser. It books property viewings, prepares flight searches, and fills in forms, handing the task back to the user to finalize a payment, accept terms, or create an account. This is the same pattern that has settled in with Claude and the rest: the agent does everything up to the step that cannot be undone, and a person confirms that step.
