Subscription Recognition Issue: Antigravity App Limited to Free Tier

Google AI Studio
,
1

Product: Antigravity Desktop Application

Issue Type: Subscription/Account Synchronization Error

Status: Open

:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: Issue Summary

The Antigravity desktop application is not recognizing my active paid Google AI Pro (2 TB) subscription, incorrectly limiting my usage to the free tier with restricted rate limits and weekly refreshes. I require investigation into the entitlement status and forced synchronization to grant the correct Developer Plan benefits (5-hour refresh limits).

:clipboard: Details & Verification

  • Google Account Email: sulejmansaiti12@gmail.com

  • Active Paid Plan: Google AI Pro (2 TB)

  • Next Billing Date: 10 Dec 2025 (Confirms subscription is active and paid)

  • Current Message in App: ā€œYour Plan: Free. Higher rate limits are here, and refresh weekly to support extended, uninterrupted free usage. Upgrade to a Google AI plan for increased limits and refreshes.ā€

:gear: Troubleshooting Performed (Issue Persists)

I have already completed the following steps multiple times:

  1. Signed out of the Antigravity application completely.

  2. Closed and relaunched the application.

  3. Updated/re-downloaded the app to the latest version.

  4. Signed back in using the correct Google Account (sulejmansaiti12@gmail.com).

:folded_hands: Requested Action

As standard troubleshooting has failed, this appears to be a server-side synchronization or entitlement bug. Please:

  1. Investigate the entitlement status for my Google AI Pro subscription associated with the email above.

  2. Force synchronization to ensure the Antigravity application correctly recognizes and grants the Developer Plan benefits (higher rate limits with 5-hour refresh intervals).

I have same issue ā€¦ I was figting with this all yestarday. I have workspace account and itā€™s not possible to find any help.

My user have all required permitions ā€¦ maybe becouse I never know. I switch some API in the project and I never know what permitions this api require in the system.

About permitions some time is so hard to find what kind of permitions user requiere, to use special service ā€¦

Maybe some one will know what kid of API is required to use Antigravity on workstation account.
I swicht on:

Gemini for google cloud API
Gemini Cloud Assist API
Gemini Code Assist Management API
Generative Language API

In roles I have like this: ā€œroleā€: ā€œroles/cloudaicompanion.codeToolsUserā€ for the user hwo is login in Antigravity ā€¦

And second think what kind of priviliges the user need it GCC to use it ā€¦ or just better is to swicht to google one account ??

I know that AntiGraviti is new ā€¦ but there is nothing about how to work with this in workspace account ā€¦

I admitted only, that Iā€™m not so expirienced user in GCC ā€¦

Itā€™s funny, because to start using Gemieni Ultra on google one account itā€™s no problem at all ā€¦ just pay and itā€™s work like a charm.

Iā€™m having same problem, my paid Google AI plan benefits donā€™t appear to be applying in Antigravity, and Iā€™m blocked by weekly quota limits even though I purchased Google One ā†’ Google AI Pro (2 TB) specifically to get higher quotas in Antigravity.

Account used in Antigravity:

Subscription shown in Google: Google AI Pro (2 TB), renews Jan 11, 2026 (I accepted the 1-month free trial offer but it is active).

What Iā€™m seeing in Antigravity

ā€¢	Antigravity displays: ā€œYour Plan: Freeā€ and prompts me to upgrade for higher rate limits.

ā€¢	When using models, I get:

ā€œModel quota limit exceeded ā€” Claude Sonnet 4.5 (Thinking). You can resume using this model at 20/12/2025, 15:46:58. You can upgrade to a Google AI plan to receive higher rate limits.ā€

This looks incorrect because I already have Google AI Pro.

Troubleshooting already done

ā€¢	Confirmed age verification is not required for my account (Google says ā€œYouā€™re all setā€).

ā€¢	Signed out/in again; tried Incognito; re-logged into Antigravity ā†’ no change.

ā€¢	Waited 2ā€“3 days (initially told quotas/entitlements may take time) ā†’ still not updated.

ā€¢	I contacted Google One support (Case ID: 7-9881000040305). After basic troubleshooting, they suggested contacting Antigravity directly because it appears to be an Antigravity/entitlement sync issue.

Iā€™m honestly very frustrated cos I bought Google AI Pro specifically to use Antigravity with higher quotas and refresh every 5hrs, and right now I canā€™t continue exploring Antigravity because I keep hitting the weekly limits despite having the subscription. Iā€™d really appreciate a fast resolution or a clear explanation of what I need to do to make the paid benefits apply.

Iā€™m surprised by the lack of official response here. Customers have paid for a service theyā€™re not receiving, and even a brief acknowledgment or timeline for resolution would go a long way. Could the team please provide an update?

Ok, so this is a well known problem that already exists > 10 days, lots of people have this issue so if you only want a PRO account for Antigravity guess at this moment you better wait for a solution right ?

I wonder if this could have something to do with Antigravity messing up its install because of an error in JSON Settings parsing.

I asked to import my settings from both VSCode and Cursor during the onboarding and Antigravity stopped working after the first restart on every try.
Had to fully reinstall and start from scratch every time this happened.

Starting fresh does not crash Antigravity and the ā€œFailed to update user status Error: LanguageServerClient must be initialized first!ā€ error never happens, and as such all other Antigravity and regular VSCode features work as expected - also fixes installing extensions, running some actions etc..

Turns out my imported settings have a JSON comment in them, which is supported by VSCode. It looks like Antigravity does not handle it properly, and as a result, corrupts the user install and wonā€™t get into a recoverable state because the ā€œLanguageServerClientā€ thing appears to be a blocking init step.

Every time I include JSON comments, reloading the IDE will corrupt the install, and it wonā€™t be immediately obvious as most of the VSCode stuff still works.
Itā€™s just borked here and there, and has been this way since its release - I believe this has also been an issue with Windsurf at some point, havent tested since so not 100% confident about it.

tl;dr - having JSON comments in your settings corrupts (bricks) your install and can do stuff like this. if this is the case for you, reset to a fresh state WITHOUT importing settings (either uninstall-reinstall, a rm -rf ~/.config/Antigravity will also work fine), re-login, and check if it works.

What is the exact quota limits and why the reset window is so long? I have hit limit this morning and it says it would be reset almost 30 hours later? Why?

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your concern with us.

To receive the increased quotas associated with the AI Pro Subscription, you may need to verify your age. You can complete this process at the following link: https://myaccount.google.com/age-verification.

Additionally, please note that upgraded quotas through Google One are not currently available in all locations. We recommend referring to the full list of supported regions here to confirm availability in your area.

I can confirm that this is an issue with anti-gravity functioning properly. There is no link error or message to define this age confirmation aspect is the problem. I was able to find this after a tech help interaction chat, the technician replied to me the next day with the fix.

We appreciate you sharing your concern about this issue and for taking the time to provide further details.

This matter has been escalated internally for a comprehensive investigation. Your input is invaluable as we work to improve Antigravity.

Iā€™m also a paying Google AI Pro (2 TB) subscriber, and Antigravity is still effectively treating my account like the free tier.

After hitting the limit for this model, I get:
ā€œYou have reached the quota limit for this model. You can resume using this model at 13.1.2026 09:14:12 (EET).ā€

This is not acceptable for a paid plan. Per Googleā€™s own announcement, AI Pro/Ultra quotas should refresh every ~5 hours (not lock paying users out for multiple days):
blog.google/feed/new-antigravity-rate-limits-pro-ultra-subsribers/

What Iā€™ve already tried (multiple times):

  • Sign out / sign in (including full app restart).
  • Confirm the IDE account email matches the Google One / AI Pro subscription account.
  • Reinstall the desktop app + clear cached credentials.
  • downgrade, wait for a long time, upgrade back to pro tier

None of the ā€œcommon fixesā€ work, and Iā€™m blocked until Jan 13.

This has been reported by many other paying users as well:

  • .reddit.com/r/google_antigravity/comments/1plzsmm/stuck_in_free_tier_despite_having_paid_plan/[/url]
  • .reddit.com/r/GoogleGeminiAI/comments/1peqhm1/antigravity_ignores_google_ai_pro_subscription/[/url]
  • .reddit.com/r/AntiGravityUsers/comments/1ph8sem/antigravity_stuck_on_free_plan_despite_active/

Can someone from Google please:

  • Confirm whether this is a known entitlement/subscription sync bug for AI Pro users.
  • Force a resync of my entitlement (so I actually get the Pro refresh cycle).
  • Provide an ETA for a fix (or a workaround that actually works).

If this canā€™t be resolved promptly, please explain how paying customers can request a refund/credit for the period where the product is unusable.

Thanks.
