NotebookLM pricing in 2026 spans seven SKUs tied to Google AI subscriptions: Standard at $0/month, Plus at $7.99/month via Google AI Plus, Pro at $19.99/month via Google AI Pro, and Ultra at $99.99 or $200/month via the two new Google AI Ultra tiers, plus a student deal at $9.99/month, Workspace Business Standard at $14/user/month, and NotebookLM Enterprise from roughly $9/license/month. You cannot buy NotebookLM as a standalone product. This guide breaks down what every NotebookLM tier costs in 2026 after Google’s Gemini 3.5 Flash launch at I/O 2026 and the AI Ultra price reshuffle on May 19. For a full walkthrough of the actual product, see our step-by-step NotebookLM guide. […]

Google now sells Gemini four different ways, and the price map just changed at Google I/O 2026. Google AI Ultra was cut from $249.99 to a new entry price of $99.99 per month, while Google AI Plus stays at $7.99 per month and Google AI Pro at $19.99 per month. On the API side, Google’s new Gemini 3.5 Flash launched on May 19, 2026 at $1.50 per million input tokens and $9.00 per million output tokens. That undercuts the older Gemini 3.1 Pro ($2.00 / $12.00) by about 25% while beating it on coding and agentic benchmarks. This guide covers every part of Gemini pricing in 2026, fully updated for […]

Google just launched Gemini 3.5. The first model in the family, Gemini 3.5 Flash, went live on May 19, 2026 at Google I/O 2026, and it does something Google has never done before. The cheap, fast “Flash” tier now beats the previous flagship. Gemini 3.5 Flash outscores Gemini 3.1 Pro on Terminal-Bench 2.1 (76.2%), MCP Atlas (83.6%) and GDPval-AA (1,656 Elo), runs roughly 4x faster in output tokens per second, and costs about 25% less. It is already the default model in the Gemini app and AI Mode in Search for billions of people worldwide. One thing did not ship today. Gemini 3.5 Pro was pushed to next month, and […]

These 14 Gemini AI photo prompts turn one ordinary selfie into a cinematic film still, a fashion-magazine cover, a vintage polaroid, a studio headshot, or a Renaissance painting, and every one of them is copy-paste ready. They run on Nano Banana, Google’s native image model inside the Gemini app, which means no Photoshop, no Lightroom, and no prompt-writing skill on your part. You upload a photo, paste a prompt, and Gemini hands back an edited portrait in a few seconds. This is the same viral trend that made ChatGPT photo edits explode in 2025. The quality bar has since moved to Nano Banana 2, the newest Gemini image model and […]

Since August 14, 2025, Google Flight Deals has been turning plain-English trip ideas into flight offers at least 20% below typical prices, no date juggling required. That single shift, plus the rise of AI tools like Hopper, Going, Skyscanner Savvy Search, ChatGPT, and Perplexity, has rewritten how smart travelers find flights this year. This guide walks you through exactly how to use AI to find cheap flights in 2026, which tools do what, the prompts that actually work, and the rookie mistake that lets airlines quietly push your fare up by 20% or more. We tested four AI tools on the same route to see who actually delivered, and we’ll […]

Paying for ChatGPT Plus at $20/month, Claude Pro at $20/month, Google AI Pro at $19.99/month, and Perplexity Pro at $20/month stacks up to nearly $80 every month, or roughly $960 a year, and most of those tools do not offer a single dollar off through any of the “promo codes” you will find on coupon sites. The honest answer is that real AI deals in 2026 are quiet, small, and almost never live on coupon aggregators. This guide covers every legitimate way to lower your AI bill right now: which student discounts are still live, which ones quietly expired this year, which subscriptions are 15% to 17% cheaper if you […]

More than 1,000 people every month type “how to turn off Google Gemini” into search, and the number keeps climbing. Google quietly switched Gemini on by default across Gmail, Chrome, Android, Workspace, Maps and Search through 2025 and early 2026, and most users only noticed when the AI started summarising their inbox or hijacking the power button. A class-action lawsuit (Thele v. Google LLC, filed November 11, 2025) accuses Google of secretly enabling these features around October 10, 2025. Users in the EU, UK and Japan were opted out by default, while US users were opted in. If you live in the US, the off switch is yours to find, […]

Google’s mysterious Omni video model surfaced inside the Gemini app days before I/O 2026. We cover the leaked UI string, the early demo videos, and the three theories about what Omni actually is.

The standard cost of a major AI assistant in 2026 is $20 per month: ChatGPT Plus at $20, Claude Pro at $20, Google AI Pro at $19.99, and Perplexity Pro at $20. Budget tiers start at Google AI Plus at $7.99 and ChatGPT Go at $8, with Grok SuperGrok Lite at $10 just above. Power-user plans run ChatGPT Pro and Claude Max at $100 and $200, SuperGrok at $30, and SuperGrok Heavy at $300, while Google AI Ultra was cut to $99.99 at Google I/O 2026 (with a $200 higher-limit plan on top). DeepSeek has no monthly plan; web chat is free and the rest runs on per-token API pricing. […]

For the first time ever, Mac users can install all three flagship AI apps natively. Google’s Gemini for Mac shipped on April 15, 2026, and that closes the gap with ChatGPT and Claude, which have had polished native apps on macOS for over a year. Three apps, three different philosophies, and exactly one Dock you have to share between them. Google has since launched Gemini 3.5, its newest model family. This is the first month a real three-way comparison is even possible, so we ran ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini side by side on the same M-series Mac for two weeks. Below you get the honest verdict on which native app […]
