It's impressive how badly Google has screwed up their models and coding products. There was a brief period of time I was using Anti-gravity as my daily driver when they first introduced it and then they just completely screwed it up.
Same. The reason I gave up was their limit inconsistency. I signed up for their cheapest sub and got what I felt was fair. I subbed for ultra and hammered the opus as much as I could - first week I couldnt hit the 5h limit at all, used 80% of weekly limit. Second week I couldnt hit the 5h limit at all, used up my weekly limit 1 day before reset.
Third week I was hitting 5h limits by hour 3, weekly limit in 4 days. Last week Ive hit my 5h limit in under 40 min, and stopped using it completely.
My usage was very consistent thorough the month. I wasnt launching subagents, I wasnt working with more full caches, they just tightened my limits during the month I paid like 180$ for, which was discounted 50% for first 3 months, so they wanted over 300$ to keep the sub I hit 5h limits before my cofee gets cold. Absolutely insane
Not just their coding products. Compare Claude Desktop / ChatGPT Classic to Gemini Desktop... Gemini desktop is barbaric with less usability / polish and more UI bugs than its online web counterpart.
I wasn't able to give the new ChatGPT desktop app a try because it insists on phone number for the registration flow even though I'm using a free tier.
My experience with Antigravity is that it will tell me it's completed a task or implementation that it hasn't. Like, the work is half-mostly done but not.
Judging by this entire page being the direct output of an LLM with little editing done at all I assume the feature is probably half baked and probably just a bunch of skills or harness tweaks? In that case, why would anyone pay for this at all?
I had the same poor initial experience that others reported, but has anyone been paying for it recently and using it as a serious tool? Their new models are a pretty good value and crazy fast; I wonder if the Gemini on Antigravity output is overall competitive or has some niche use case other than being a frontend for Agent Substrate and their other projects
Am also curious on this! Though if it’s great now I’d need a sustained period of consistency (let’s say six months) before I try it again - the rollercoaster of getting a new randomized feature and quality experience every week got old pretty quick. (And I felt bad for recommending it to a few people at the time based on a good week)
Got off Gemini before they ended the cli, was not working for me, and went to Codex and opencode/deepseek flash v4 0731 which was working ok.
But got the google ai pro free 1 yr student - been liking agy quite alot actually - pretty good weekly allotment. Like the default, Flash 3.7 high.
Even bought extra credits I've been hammering it all day long.
People talk all day about coding but where this thing amazes me is devops. It hooked itself to discord so i can command it, set up or troubleshoot ssh servers on my home network. Blew my mind a couple times.
I have some super specialized workflow I wish I can run with their model, but looks like they don't allow programmatic call (claude code and codex allows it) in their plan.
On the one hand this kind of harness work is pretty interesting, on the other the blog post is light on details and sounds like existing behavior of any high end model in Claude Code, Pi, or one of the litany of other projects that people seem to be cooking up on a daily basis.
I canceled my Ultra subscription after realizing I had Sol constantly fixing anything I tried to do with Antigravity. The most frustrating experience and a waste of money. I’m sorry for Google and hope they manage to fix their disaster.

They’ve had this weird phrasing on this landing page for at least 6 months if not longer. It’s clearly a landing page that receives no love.
And yet I just installed Antigravity, and it had a default checked box to also install Antigravity IDE. So someone still cares enough to try and juice the install numbers
It's because they did a very bad rollout with 2.0 which totally removed the editor, which frustrated a lot of people, so then they added all these ways to install the version with the editor again to try to fix that.
Their attention is definitely focused on the non IDE tool
What should you be looking out for as bad behavior from this model? I've daily-driven 3.5, 3.6, and now 3.7 for however long it's been out (alongside Opus, as I hit daily limits on both subs each day) and haven't noticed anything "untrustworthy".

How? Can you explain how they screwed it up.
Simple : In every way possible you can imagine.

All these /boost, ultracode and other magic incancations seem to be just "throw more money/tokens at the problem and maybe it helps".
"Hope" suggests that it's not backed by data.
I found they work pretty well for security reviews or similar large scale, file-by-file transformations.

It is used seriously inside Google (the internal equivalent version). Many people swear by it and many don't think it's as good as Claude/Codex.

I gave up on Antigravity when Google changed its rules around paid plans AI quotas, leading to my AI Pro getting depleted in up to four rounds.
Have they ever gotten around to fixing it or is Antigravity only feasible with their Ultra plan?

Not sure if it solves your problem, but there's a command line tool for Antigravity

Which Boost version does it support?
Nitro Boost

> Plan availability: The /boost command is available on paid plans across Google Antigravity 2.0 and the Antigravity CLI.
They are ignoring antigravity IDE like it does not exist anymore.
https://antigravity.google/product/antigravity-ide
If you like the Antigravity 1.0 experience, Vscode+Antigravity Extension should be very close.

or alternatively nobody remembered to remove the checkbox
After everything the tried no-one ever expected Google to launch and immediately ignore a product.
For real though, I think their reputation with developers is in the gutter after years of trial balloons.
Where is the updated gemini pro model?
What's with all this AI spam for AI companies?! Seriously!?
Every single hour on HN it's OpenAI does this, Gemini does that.
It's all nothing.
Extra reasoning. Big whoop.
The plates all need to keep spinning faster all the time.
is google fixed usage quota in antigravity? or still is this a problem of antigravity?
absolutely crazy to make this a "paid tier user" feature.
the primary difference between the free and the paid versions should be the amount of inference quota you have access to
Astroturfed post.
Excellent, so Gemini 3.7 can trash your codebase even faster (but seriously: don't trust this model)

Are 3.5, 3.6 any better? It is pretty flaky, Deepseek v4 flash is more reliable than 3.7 flash at least.
ultracode... 3 months later?
