I’ve been a loyal supporter of Google AI, actively championing and marketing your products to everyone around me. However, after trying to use Antigravity on the AI Ultra subscription for over a month, I have completely lost faith in the platform. I upgraded to the Ultra tier for one specific reason: Antigravity. I paid a premium for what was advertised as a premium, unrestricted experience. Instead, the service has become virtually unusable. While the team had a fantastic start, the post-Gemini 3.1 updates have been catastrophic.
Here is what the “Ultra” experience actually looks like right now:
-
Constant Downtime & Mid-Work Errors: The models are constantly bogged down with never-ending loading screens. When they aren’t down, my work is constantly interrupted by “high demand” server errors. I am paying for your highest-priced tier; my workflows should not be breaking due to server load.
-
The Illusion of Priority Access: Ultra was advertised as providing priority access to the models. This is demonstrably false. I am getting the exact same bottlenecks and error messages as standard users. There is zero priority routing happening.
-
Silently Introduced Weekly Limits: This is the breaking point. The entire reason I paid for Ultra was to avoid limits. Silently introducing weekly limits to your highest-paying subscribers is unacceptable. You are charging us to remove restrictions, and then stealthily adding them back in.
I haven’t lost faith in Google as a whole, but the current work coming from the AI Studio and Antigravity teams is severely below standard. It is, frankly, shameful how far the usability has dropped.
The result? You are pushing your most dedicated users and advocates right into the arms of Anthropic. After months of frustration, I have nothing left to do. As soon as my current Ultra subscription ends, I will gladly be transferring my workflows and my money to Anthropic. You’ve given me no other choice.
