Utilize Vertex AI on Google Cloud for Development
If you are in need of a fully-managed AI platform, transitioning from Google AI Studio to Vertex AI is easy. This transition allows you to customize Gemini with complete data control and take advantage of additional Google Cloud features for enterprise security, safety, privacy, and data governance and compliance.
With Vertex AI, you will have access to the same Gemini models and will be able to:
- Fine-tune and distill Gemini with your company’s data, and enhance it with grounding to include real-time information and extensions for real-world actions.
- Create Gemini-powered search and conversational agents in a low code / no code environment, including support for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), blended search, embeddings, conversation playbooks, and more.
- Deploy with confidence, as our models are never trained on inputs or outputs from Google Cloud customers. Your data and IP are always yours.

Gemini Pro Pricing
Currently, developers have free access to Gemini Pro and Gemini Pro Vision through Google AI Studio, with up to 60 requests per minute, making it suitable for most app development needs. Vertex AI developers can try the same models, with the same rate limits, at no cost until general availability early next year, after which there will be a charge per 1,000 characters or per image across Google AI Studio and Vertex AI.
