Google has recently broadened the reach of its most cost-effective artificial intelligence subscription worldwide. On Wednesday, the tech giant based in Mountain View revealed that the Google AI Plus plan will now be available wherever there is a paid subscription option, launching it in 165 nations and regions. Notably, the US is among the last areas to receive this service, arriving four months after the company tested it in Indonesia. In contrast, India was granted access to the paid plan back in December 2025. In a blog entry, the tech company shared that it is introducing the Google AI Plus plan to an additional 35 countries and territories, including the US, officially making it a standard offering. This plan sits between the free version and the Google AI Pro plan, serving as the most economical way to experience some of the premium features from Gemini that the company provides. In India, this subscription starts at Rs. 199 for the first six months, then increases to Rs. 399 monthly. Meanwhile, in the US, it costs $7.99 (approximately Rs. 734) each month; however, for a limited time, new users can enjoy a 50 percent discount for the initial two months.

The advantages of this plan consist of greater access to the Gemini 3 Pro AI model compared to the free version but offers less than the AI Pro and Ultra options. The standard Gemini AI model on the app and website provides a 128K token context window, while the free version only allows for 32K tokens. With the Google AI Plus plan, users can now affordably create AI videos using the Veo 3 Fast model, which is not accessible to free tier users. The daily usage limit has not been disclosed. Additionally, subscribers to this plan will be able to use the Gemini side panel in Workspace apps like Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sheets, and Drive. Users will also have access to the video creation app named Flow, and the app that transforms images into videos called Whisk. Furthermore, these subscribers will receive 200GB of cloud storage shared across Drive, the Photos app, and Gmail.
