Google has unveiled Gemini 3.1 Pro, a more advanced version of its flagship AI model, according to media reports and an official blog post.

“Today, we’re releasing the upgraded core intelligence that makes those breakthroughs possible: Gemini 3.1 Pro. We are shipping 3.1 Pro across our consumer and developer products to bring this progress in intelligence to your everyday applications,” the company said.

Building on the Gemini 3 series, Gemini 3.1 Pro represents a significant leap in core reasoning and complex problem-solving capabilities.

The model has shown marked improvement on rigorous benchmarks.

On ARC-AGI-2 — a benchmark designed to test a model’s ability to solve entirely new logic patterns — Gemini 3.1 Pro achieved a verified score of 77.1%, more than double the reasoning performance of Gemini 3 Pro.

Developers: Available in preview via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio, Gemini CLI, the agentic development platform Google Antigravity, and Android Studio.

Enterprises: Accessible through Vertex AI and Gemini Enterprise.

In the Gemini app, the model is being introduced with higher usage limits for subscribers to Google AI Pro and Ultra plans.

It is also available on NotebookLM exclusively for Pro and Ultra users.

Developers and enterprise customers can access Gemini 3.1 Pro in preview through the Gemini API across AI Studio, Antigravity, Vertex AI, Gemini Enterprise, Gemini CLI and Android Studio.
