Gemini 4 Argon: our next era of frontier intelligence

Gemini 4 Argon: our next era of frontier intelligence

Key points

  • Today, we’re announcing our new frontier model, Gemini 4 Argon, which is rolling out to a set of trusted cyber defenders through our Fairwind Program.
  • Built to sustain deep reasoning across complex, long-horizon workflows, Argon is fundamentally changing the way we work and build at Google.
  • Argon will launch at an introductory price 1 of $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, with cached input tokens priced at 95% off input token price.
  • Quantum algorithmic optimization: Argon is helping our quantum computing researchers optimize the spacetime resources (qubits × gates) of subroutines that bottleneck important applications.
