Model Responses
Perplexity
Response
1. Pricing tier availability
INCORRECT. Stored data lists availability for "Free" (✅ Standard limits, camera + screen sharing) and "AI Pro" (✅ Full limits, early access). Current data shows integration via Gemini Live in the Gemini app: full access on Samsung Galaxy S25 without Gemini Advanced subscription; basic access on Pixel 9 for free users, but advanced camera features require Gemini Advanced (equivalent to Google AI Pro/Plus).[1] No mentions of Google AI Ultra, Workspace add-on, or specific limits per tier beyond basic vs. advanced features; usage follows standard Gemini Live limits (not detailed). Does not match stored data, as free tier has restrictions on Pixel and device-specific perks exist.[1]
2. Platform/surface availability
CORRECT. Matches stored data: available ✅ on iOS/Android (Gemini app, Android 10+ implied via recent devices); ❌ on Windows/macOS/Linux/Chrome/web/terminal/API (mobile-only, camera/screen sharing via phone app).[1][2] No desktop/web/API support noted; emphasis on Android phones (Pixel 9, Galaxy S25) and prototype glasses (not consumer platforms).[1][2]
3. Current status
CORRECT. Stored "ga" (generally available) matches: Project Astra capabilities are integrated into Gemini Live for public use via Gemini app on supported phones, beyond prototype/demo stage.[1][2]
4. Access gating
INCORRECT. Stored "free" does not fully match: basic access is free, but advanced features require paid Gemini Advanced (Google AI Pro/Plus) on some devices; Galaxy S25 offers full free access temporarily via partnership.[1] Not purely free or paid-only.
5. Regional availability
No stored regional data provided beyond "Available globally where Gemini is available," so unable to verify against it. Sources imply availability where Gemini app/Live is supported (e.g., US beta for related features), but no explicit global confirmation or country restrictions for Project Astra specifically; follows Gemini's general availability (global with local laws).[1][4]
6. Official URL
CORRECT and active. Official page is https://deepmind.google/models/project-astra/, describing ongoing integration into Gemini Live (screen sharing, video understanding).[2] Page is live, focusing on capabilities like natural interaction, memory, and prototypes.
7. Recent changes
No change detected. No announcements specific to Project Astra in last 30 days (late Feb to Mar 20, 2026). Related Gemini updates (e.g., Personal Intelligence beta Jan 2026, Gemini in Chrome, task automation Mar 2026) do not mention Astra; Apr 2025 video remains most direct reference, with ongoing expansions noted.[1][2][4][5][6]
