# Google Antigravity

Published January 1, 2026 · Updated August 10, 2026

AI Coding Agent IDE by Google

Category: Developer Tools · Free · Replaces Cursor Pro ($20/month) · [Official website](https://antigravity.google/)

## Install with Homebrew

`brew install --cask antigravity`

## Quick take

Antigravity 2.0 (19 May 2026, I/O) is worth a hard look if you want a Mac command center for parallel agents with Gemini-centric gravity and optional IDE attachment. Individual $0 is enough to learn /goal and /grill-me; Pro ~$19.99/mo and Ultra $99.99/$199.99 exist when weekly limits bite. It is less compelling if you mainly want a calm editor with predictable coding spend.

Best for: Developers orchestrating multiple agents and artifacts, Teams already in the Gemini / Google AI subscription world, Evaluators comparing agent command centers post-I/O 2026, Mac users who refuse to abandon their current IDE, Automation-minded maintainers using scheduled agents

## What is Google Antigravity?

Google Antigravity is an agent-first software development platform, not a classical IDE that merely adds a chat sidebar. Antigravity 2.0 launched 19 May 2026 at Google I/O as a command center for orchestrating agents, reviewing artifacts, scheduling work, and running asynchronous subagents on macOS (also Linux/Windows). Keeping a traditional IDE is optional; many developers pair Antigravity with an editor they already like, or use Google's IDE lineage features when they want them.

Model access on the Individual $0 plan lists Gemini 3.5 Flash, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Gemini 3 Flash, Claude Sonnet & Opus 4.6, and gpt-oss-120b, with basic weekly rate limits. Google AI Pro is about $19.99/mo. Ultra tiers are commonly cited at $99.99 (about 5x) and $199.99 (about 20x) after I/O-era repricing. Organization usage rides Google Cloud consumption.

Slash commands such as /goal, /grill-me, /schedule, and /browser structure agent work. Choose Antigravity when you want Manager/Agent Teams style parallelism and Gemini ecosystem gravity. Choose a focused coding IDE when you primarily want manual editing comfort and predictable token pricing without weekly quota surprises.

In practice, Antigravity rewards teams that already think in tasks and artifacts. If your day is mostly typing in one file with occasional AI autocomplete, a lighter IDE agent will feel calmer. If your day is delegating research, browser checks, and parallel refactors, the 2.0 command center is aimed at you.

After I/O, plenty of demos made Antigravity 2.0 look magical. The durable Mac workflow is calmer: pick a plan tier, learn four slash commands, review artifacts like PRs, and keep your editor. Individual $0 is for learning and light traces. Pro at about $19.99/mo is for people who hit weekly limits while doing real work. Ultra at $99.99 or $199.99 is a budget conversation with whoever owns the Google AI spend, not a trophy. Model names on the card matter less than whether you can finish a /goal without the quota wall. If you need Android-specific layout tools, that is still Android Studio Quail 3 territory. Antigravity is for agent orchestration across software work, not a replacement for every specialized IDE. Confirm live entitlements on antigravity.google/pricing before a team rollout, because marketing cards and billing meters still confuse buyers after I/O.

## Features

- **Antigravity 2.0 command center.** Launched 19 May 2026 at I/O, Antigravity 2.0 is positioned as a standalone command center for agents rather than 'yet another VS Code fork.' You orchestrate agents, inspect artifacts, and schedule jobs. The earlier IDE remains optionally installable if you want that surface.
- **Optional IDE posture.** You can keep your existing IDE. Antigravity does not require abandoning Cursor, VS Code, or JetBrains. That optional stance is central to the 2.0 pitch: agents and artifacts first, editor preference second.
- **Multi-model access.** Listed models include Gemini 3.5 Flash, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Gemini 3 Flash, Claude Sonnet & Opus 4.6, and gpt-oss-120b depending on plan limits. Individual $0 includes those model names with basic weekly rate limits.
- **Pricing ladder.** Individual $0; Pro about $19.99 per month; Ultra commonly $99.99 (5x) and $199.99 (20x). Organizations use Google Cloud consumption. Exact entitlements still need a check on antigravity.google/pricing before you budget a team rollout.
- **Slash commands.** /goal, /grill-me, /schedule, and /browser are first-class command entry points for directing agents, stress-testing plans, scheduling work, and browser-tool workflows.
- **Agent Teams / Mission Control style parallelism.** Antigravity emphasizes parallel subagents and manager views for work that benefits from multiple agents at once. This is the product's differentiator versus single-thread chat coding.
- **Artifacts, hooks, and scheduling.** Agents produce artifacts you review. Hooks and scheduled agents support recurring or event-driven jobs. Useful for long-running research or maintenance tasks you do not want to babysit in a single chat transcript.
- **Mac desktop availability.** Antigravity 2.0 runs as a desktop app on macOS alongside Linux and Windows. Install from Google's Antigravity site and sign in with the Google account that holds your plan entitlements.

## How to Install Antigravity on Mac

Download the macOS app from Google's Antigravity site, sign in, pick a plan tier, and decide whether you will also install the optional IDE surface or keep your current editor.

1. **Download Antigravity 2.0 for Mac.** Get the macOS build from https://antigravity.google/ (or the current official download entry point Google lists). Install like a normal Mac app and launch it.
2. **Sign in and confirm plan.** Sign in with Google. Verify whether you are on Individual $0, Pro ~$19.99/mo, or an Ultra tier ($99.99 / $199.99). Check antigravity.google/pricing for the live entitlements.
3. **Learn core slash commands.** Practice /goal, /grill-me, /schedule, and /browser on a disposable repo before pointing agents at production code.
4. **Decide IDE strategy.** Keep your existing IDE, install Google's optional IDE lineage surface, or mix. Antigravity 2.0 does not force a single editor religion.

## Pros

- Antigravity 2.0 command-center model launched 19 May 2026 at I/O
- Optional IDE stance lets you keep Cursor/VS Code/JetBrains
- Broad model list including Gemini and Claude Sonnet & Opus 4.6 plus gpt-oss-120b
- Individual $0 tier to evaluate before paying
- Slash commands (/goal, /grill-me, /schedule, /browser) structure agent ops
- Parallel agent / Mission Control style workflows
- Mac desktop app available
- Pro and Ultra tiers for heavier weekly usage

## Cons

- Weekly quotas can interrupt heavy agent traces on lower tiers
- Credit/limit opacity versus some competitors' simpler plan cards
- Agent-first UX can feel worse if you mostly want manual editing
- Pricing tiers outside Individual need careful reading (Pro/Ultra/Cloud)
- Newer product surface means runbooks and working habits still moving

## Closer look: Antigravity 2.0 as a command center

Why Google frames 2.0 as more than an IDE skin, and how the Individual/Pro/Ultra ladder interacts with real agent volume on a Mac. Quota literacy matters as much as model branding when agent traces get long.
