Google’s AI chatbot, Gemini, has reached a major milestone, crossing more than 750 million monthly active users worldwide. The figure was disclosed as part of Google’s fourth-quarter 2025 financial results and highlights how quickly the assistant has gained mainstream traction in an increasingly competitive AI landscape.
Just one quarter earlier, Gemini reported around 650 million monthly users. The jump of 100 million users in such a short time signals strong momentum and growing consumer interest. While other AI platforms are also expanding, Gemini has now pulled ahead of Meta AI, which recently reported close to 500 million monthly users. That said, Gemini still sits slightly behind its biggest competitor, ChatGPT, which is estimated to be serving roughly 810 million monthly users toward the end of 2025.
A key factor behind Gemini’s recent growth is the rollout of Gemini 3, Google’s most advanced AI model to date. The new version promises deeper, more nuanced responses and improved reasoning abilities. According to Google, this upgrade has significantly enhanced user engagement, especially within its AI-powered search and chat experiences.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai described Gemini 3 as a strong catalyst for growth, pointing to it as a clear example of how continued investment in AI innovation is paying off. He emphasized that ongoing improvements and frequent updates will be central to maintaining Gemini’s upward trajectory.
Alongside technical improvements, Google has also focused on pricing strategy. The company recently introduced a lower-cost subscription called Google AI Plus, priced at $7.99 per month. This plan is aimed at attracting users who want premium AI features without a higher price tag. While the plan launched too late to impact the latest quarterly numbers, Google expects it to contribute meaningfully to future growth.
From a broader business perspective, Gemini’s success is closely tied to Alphabet’s strong financial performance. The company surpassed $400 billion in annual revenue for the first time, a milestone it credits in part to rising demand for AI products and services. Google has also strengthened its AI infrastructure by launching Ironwood, the newest generation of its TPU accelerator chips, designed to compete with Nvidia’s hardware.
Internally, Gemini’s scale is already massive. Google reports that its AI models now process more than 10 billion tokens per minute through direct API usage, underscoring how deeply embedded Gemini has become across consumer and enterprise workflows.
Together, these developments suggest that Gemini is no longer just an experiment—it’s a core pillar of Google’s future in AI.
