Reviewed by the the30top research team · Last reviewed 2026-10-27
Overview
Gemini Code Assist brings Google's Gemini models to IDEs, with agent mode and Gemini CLI access, and sells Standard and Enterprise licenses through Google Cloud. Published hourly rates work out to about $19 per user per month for Standard on a 12-month commitment and $45 for Enterprise, or $22.80 and $54 month to month, based on our calculation. The Google Cloud pricing page gives no free-tier limits, and Gemini CLI for unpaid users was replaced by Antigravity CLI in June 2026.
