Google announced the availability of Gemini 4 Carbon on October 28, initially providing it to cybersecurity defenders through its Fairwind Program.
The model is now accessible to developers and enterprises through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio and Gemini for Business.
For AI Ultra subscribers, Carbon is available within the Gemini app, while developers can also access it through the paid Gemini API.
Google is extending its program for 10,000 scientists, which began with Argon, to cover Carbon.
The pricing for Carbon starts at $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, rates that will double on December 1.
Carbon is designed for complex tasks such as multi-step coding, debugging, and open-ended scientific research, while Argon remains the better choice for most software engineering and knowledge work.
Gemini 4 Carbon is also rolling out to AI Mode in Search and on the Google Antigravity development platform.
Google is also bringing the Gemini app to CarPlay, allowing iOS users to converse with Gemini Live while driving.
Users can interrupt Gemini Live’s response to add details, change subjects, or pause.
What this adds
Google's expansion of Gemini 4 Carbon access aligns with its previous strategy for Argon, starting with paid API customers and AI Ultra subscribers.
