Whether you’re an experienced developer or a vibe coder, Gemini 3 can help you bring any idea to life.

Today we are introducing Gemini 3, our most intelligent model that can help bring any idea to life. Built on a foundation of state-of-the-art reasoning, Gemini 3 Pro delivers unparalleled results across every major AI benchmark compared to previous versions. It also surpasses 2.5 Pro at coding, mastering both agentic workflows and complex zero-shot tasks.

Build with the Gemini API: You can integrate Gemini 3 Pro immediately into your applications via Google AI Studio and Vertex AI for Enterprise. To support the model's deeper reasoning capabilities, we’re introducing a new thinking level and more granular media resolution parameters in the API, along with stricter validation for thought signatures. This update is critical for preserving the model’s thoughts across multi-turn conversations. Check out the Developer Guide for the technical breakdown and our Prompting Guide to learn how to build with Gemini 3 Pro. Experience the model’s agentic capabilities: Whether you are adding AI-native features to an Android app, automating workflows through Gemini CLI or managing a fleet of autonomous agents in Google Antigravity, Gemini 3 Pro provides the reliability needed for complex, agentic architectures. Vibe code with Gemini 3 Pro:Google AI Studio is your fastest path to bring any idea to life. Get started in Build mode to generate a fully functional app with a single prompt. And if you need a little inspiration, click “I’m feeling lucky” and let Gemini 3 Pro handle the creative spark and the code implementation simultaneously.

Gemini 3 Pro fits right into existing production agent and coding workflows, while also enabling new use cases not previously possible. It’s available in preview at $2/million input tokens and $12/million output tokens for prompts 200k tokens or less through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio and Vertex AI for enterprises (see pricing for rate limits and full pricing details). Additionally, it can be utilized via your favorite developer tools within the broader ecosystem and is available, with rate limits, free of charge in Google AI Studio.

Additionally, Gemini hosted toolsGrounding with Google Search andURL context can now be combined with structured outputs. This is especially powerful for building agentic use cases which involve fetching and extracting data and then outputting them in a specific format for downstream agentic tasks.

Whether it’s building a game with a single prompt, an interactive landing page from unstructured voice notes, or a full on app from a napkin sketch, developers can bring their idea to life with Gemini 3. With this model, we pushed single prompt generation capabilities further than ever, meaning you can go from idea to AI-powered app with a single prompt, like this retro game built in Google AI Studio.

With Gemini 3, we are releasing a client-side bash tool that empowers the model to propose shell commands as part of agentic workflows for tasks such as navigating your local filesystem, driving development processes, and automating system operations. We’re pairing this with a hosted server-side bash tool for multi language code generation and secure prototyping. Available now in the Gemini API for early access partners, with general availability coming soon.

Developers are spending more and more time creating software with AI at their side. Building on the momentum of Gemini 2.5 Pro and all the feedback, Gemini 3 Pro serves as a new foundation of intelligence for what’s possible with an agentic coding model.

Gemini 3 Pro scores 54.2% points on Terminal-Bench 2.0, which tests a model’s tool use ability to operate a computer via terminal.
