Carbon uses Argon's introductory token price and, Google says, leads several coding and agent benchmarks at lower cost.

Google made Gemini 4 Carbon available on November 10 to paying developers and enterprises through the API, AI Studio, and Gemini for business, with a rollout to AI Ultra subscribers. It positions Carbon for long-horizon coding, scientific work, and cybersecurity after a Fairwind preview for defenders. Google claims leading results on several external benchmarks at lower cost than the next model. Cloud Vulnerability Research used Carbon to show two open-source bugs were exploitable; details remain under disclosure.

Unconfirmed: Benchmark ranks and cost claims are Google's, and the two open-source flaws are not yet publicly detailed.

Key facts
  • Introductory price matches Argon: $2 per million input and $10 per million output tokens.
  • Google says Carbon ranks first on CursorBench 4.0, WANDR, and AutomationBench.
  • Project Fortify testing reported 100% scan recall and 95% triage precision.
  • CVR reclassified two open-source bugs; public details are still pending.
  • A /swarm preview in Antigravity coordinates multiple agents from one prompt.
