Google AI Studio Starter Tier is missing when I try to publish my full-stack app

Gemini API

Hello Google AI Studio team,

I am trying to publish a full-stack application created with Google AI Studio Build Mode.

When I click Publish → Get Started, the Confirm project and billing screen only shows:

  • Default Gemini Project
  • No billing setup
  • Set up billing
  • Refresh

The Google Cloud Starter Tier option does not appear.

I have already clicked Refresh, but nothing changed.

My application is already completed and working correctly, including its Supabase database and application functionality.

According to the current Google AI Studio documentation, eligible users should be able to publish up to 2 full-stack applications using the Google Cloud Starter Tier without setting up a Google Cloud billing account.

I do not want to enable paid Cloud Billing or add a payment method just to publish my application.

Could you please check:

  1. Whether my account is eligible for the Google Cloud Starter Tier.
  2. Whether the Starter Tier deployment entitlement has been provisioned for my account.
  3. Whether there is currently an issue preventing the Starter Tier option from appearing.
  4. Whether any action is required on my account to make the Starter Tier publishing option available.

Application: Өдөр Өнжүүлэх
Current project: Default Gemini Project
Current status: No billing setup

Thank you.

Hello @Gerel_Gegee ,

Not all accounts are eligible for The Starter Tier. Please check out the caveats mentioned in the Google AI Studio deployment documentation. Eligibility is determined automatically, and we cannot review Starter Tier access manually.

You might want to consider linking a Cloud Billing account to your project.
