Google AI Plus launched in India: What does it offer?
What's the story
Google has launched its new subscription service, Google AI Plus, in India. The plan costs ₹399 per month but is available at an introductory price of ₹199 for the first six months. The move is part of Google's effort to make advanced artificial intelligence (AI) technology more accessible and affordable for Indian users.
Service
A comprehensive upgrade
Google AI Plus is a monthly subscription that provides premium AI facilities across the Google ecosystem. The plan gives access to Gemini 3 Pro, Google's most advanced AI model yet. This means faster and more efficient responses on the Gemini app for tasks like writing, coding, translation, brainstorming ideas, or solving problems.
Additional benefits
Enhanced features and tools with Google AI Plus
Along with improved access to Gemini 3 Pro, the Google AI Plus plan also offers video generation capabilities. This allows subscribers to create short videos directly through the app. Further, it provides creative tools like Flow for brainstorming, visualizing ideas, and shaping narratives easily. The service also extends access to NotebookLM, Google's AI-powered research assistant that analyzes long documents and summarizes key points.
Integration
Improved integration and storage
One of the key changes with Google AI Plus is the improved integration of Gemini into apps such as Gmail and Docs. This could help the users draft emails faster, rewrite content, summarize information, or even polish their writing without switching between different tools. The plan also offers 200GB of cloud storage across Photos, Drive, and Gmail with family sharing for up to five members.
