Google Slashes AI Plus Price, Boosts Storage to 400GB in Competitive Move
June 9, 2026
Google is cutting the AI Plus subscription price from $7.99 to $4.99 per month and doubling the included cloud storage from 200GB to 400GB as part of a broader reshaping of its AI tiers.
The $9.99 per month 2TB storage tier is being rebranded under the AI Plus umbrella, consolidating it within the same product line.
This move follows updates to Google's AI tier lineup, including AI Pro with 5TB at no extra cost and AI Ultra with a new $100/month entry point, while the top tier drops from $250 to $200 per month.
The story sits within Digital Trends’ broader tech coverage, which also highlights related AI, Apple, and macOS updates on the site.
Core benefits of AI Plus remain unchanged, including higher Gemini usage limits, a 128,000-token context window, and features like Daily Brief, Omni Flash video generation, and scheduled interactions, with continued access to NotebookLM, Proofread, AI Inbox in Gmail, and select Google Studio and Flow tools.
The price reduction takes effect on the next billing cycle, and the increased storage will roll out over the coming days.
With the price cut, AI Plus becomes the lowest-priced major AI subscription among leading providers, putting competitive pressure on rivals such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT Go at $8 per month.
