Google officially rolled out Gemini 4 Hydrogen, a fast model for everyday coding and agentic workflows: while Carbon and Argon handle deep architectural judgment and subtle bugs, Hydrogen focuses on writing code, running tests, and verifying changes.
At its default thinking level, Hydrogen scores 51 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, surpassing Argon. It's now available across Google AI Studio, the Gemini API, Gemini for Business, the Gemini app, Google Search, and Google Antigravity for paid AI Pro/Ultra subscribers.
