I Pressed Stop, Deep Research Pressed Continue

Hi all,

Yesterday I tried Deep Research Preview in chat.

I waited about 15–17 minutes, then pressed Stop and closed the chat coz its not give me anything back, it work at begining (thinking) but then it just show me a errors or something. So i stop it.

This morning I discovered a charge of £187.74. I am confident this is an error, because I had already stopped the session before leaving.

So i rush to delete all the api keys and try to stop the services.

Please investigate this charge and review whether the chat continued running after pressed Stop. If this billing was caused by a system error, please correct the charge and issue.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this. The charge looks wrong and we are actively investigating what happened.

To help us dig into the logs and see exactly what happened, could you please send me an email at philschmid@google.com

In the email, please include:

  • Your Project ID (to confirm if it is the same as the ID you posted above).

  • The Agent Version you were running (e.g., was it 'deep-research-preview-04-2026' in the AI Studio chat or via API?).

We want to make sure we get this sorted out for you.

Best, Philipp
