## Summary

Google says Gemini 4 Carbon, its strongest frontier model, is now available, aimed at long-horizon agentic work in knowledge work, software engineering, cybersecurity, and scientific reasoning. Google AI Ultra subscribers get it in the Gemini app and AI Mode in Search, while developers and enterprises can build with it through the API. Google says Gemini 4 Argon remains the better fit for most software engineering and knowledge work.

## Post

Our strongest frontier model, Gemini 4 Carbon, is now available.

Built for deeply complex, long-horizon workflows that push a frontier model’s intelligence, Carbon delivers frontier performance in agentic workflows across complex knowledge work, software engineering and web development, cybersecurity, and scientific reasoning.

While Gemini 4 Argon remains the ideal model for the majority of software engineering and knowledge work, Carbon steps in for your hardest tasks that push a model to its limits — from complex, multi-step debugging to open-ended scientific research.

Available starting today:
— Consumers: use it in the @GeminiApp and AI Mode in Search for Google AI Ultra subscribers
— Developers and Enterprises: build via the API in @GoogleAIStudio and @AndroidStudio, Google @Antigravity for Google AI Ultra subscribers, and Gemini for business
— Scientists and Researchers: apply for a chance to get 6 months free via @Antigravity
— Cybersecurity Defenders: apply to join the Fairwind Program for access to Carbon for cyber

Watch how Carbon brings reasoning and coding together, turning avian research into an interactive 3D simulation of a songbird’s vocal organ that synthesizes the sounds of six bird species live.
