Google’s Gemini app has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing 750 million monthly active users, showcasing rapid adoption in the AI landscape. The latest figures from the company’s fourth-quarter 2025 earnings reveal a substantial increase from the previous quarter’s 650 million MAUs. While Gemini is gaining momentum, it still trails behind ChatGPT, its biggest competitor with around 810 million MAUs in late 2025. Meta AI, on the other hand, reported nearly 500 million monthly users.
The recent success of Gemini can be attributed to the launch of Gemini 3, the company’s most advanced model to date. This new version promises responses with exceptional depth and nuance, enhancing user experience. Google’s CEO emphasized the positive impact of Gemini 3 on the company’s growth trajectory, highlighting the importance of ongoing investment and innovation.
Google has introduced a more affordable subscription plan, Google AI Plus, priced at $7.99 per month, to attract a wider consumer base. Despite being a recent addition, this plan is expected to drive further growth, especially among budget-conscious users. Google’s chief business officer expressed optimism about the growth potential of Gemini, noting the company’s focus on free-tier offerings and subscriptions.
Google’s success with Gemini is particularly noteworthy against the backdrop of Alphabet’s overall financial performance, surpassing $400 billion in annual revenue for the first time. The company attributes this achievement to the expansion of its AI division and the introduction of Ironwood, the latest TPU AI accelerator chip, to compete with Nvidia in the market.
