Hobby: 2000 times of completion + 50 times of slow progress requests (confirmed on the official website on 2026-07-26, but the official website no longer lists these numbers in detail, only mentioning limited quota, and the specific numbers are now only seen in third-party community sources, keeping the record but adjusting the confidence level to medium)
Development purposes are almost free with rate limits, and the exact RPM/TPM/RPD depends on the account level as stated on aistudio.google.com/rate-limit. For the Gemini 2.5 series, Search grounding is free for 1,500 times/day, and then US$35/1,000 times, while Maps grounding is also free for 1,500 times/day, but then US$25/1,000 times (confirmed on the official website on 2026-07-27 that the excess fee rates for the two are different). Other Search/Maps models are free for 500 times/day. For the Gemini 3 series models, the first 5,000 prompts per month are free (both Search and Maps), and then US$14/1,000 times for queries.
