Google doubled the size of its cloud storage, but only a limited group of users benefited from the gains
Google Raises Cloud Storage Cost for AI Package Users
The company announced a new subscription structure for its artificial intelligence services, which now include expanded cloud data storage.
What Changed?
Plan | Price (per month) | Storage Volume
AI Pro | $19.99 | 5 TB (previously 2 TB)
AI Ultra | $250– |
* Google increased the cloud space for the AI Pro plan from 2 TB to 5 TB, while keeping the price unchanged at $19.99 per month.
* Users do not pay extra for additional storage; it is already included in the standard subscription.
How It Looks In Practice
Now AI Pro users can store up to 5 TB of data without needing to upgrade to the pricier AI Ultra plan, which costs $250 a month. This makes cloud space accessible and economical even when using advanced AI features.
About Google One
If you don’t need specialized AI capabilities, you can use the regular Google One subscription:
Plan | Price (per month) | Storage
Basic | $2.10 | 100 GB
Standard | $3.20 | 200 GB
These rates have not changed recently and remain attractive for those who only need simple cloud storage.
Conclusion
Google is clearly focusing on subscriptions with access to AI services, offering more favorable terms there. If you need large storage capacity along with advanced AI features, AI Pro now appears to be the most rational choice.
