Google expands Gemini Spark AI assistant to paid subscribers worldwide
Google's Gemini Spark, an AI assistant built on Gemini 3.5, is now available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in most regions, though free users remain excluded.
Google announced that its Gemini Spark AI assistant, introduced at the company's I/O developer conference, is being rolled out to a broader set of paying customers. In the United States, the feature is now accessible to users subscribed to the $20-per-month Google AI Pro plan, while global users on the Google AI Ultra tier, which costs between $100 and $200 per month, will also receive access. The rollout excludes the European Economic Area, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Nigeria, and it does not extend to free-tier accounts.
Gemini Spark runs on the Gemini 3.5 model and is tightly integrated with Google Workspace applications. Users can launch the assistant from the Spark page in the desktop sidebar or via the mobile menu, then type commands such as checking email and calendar each morning, generating draft replies, summarizing long email threads, or creating detailed Google Docs reports from meeting notes and emails. Google directs users to its support documentation for a full list of capabilities.
