Google DeepMind announced Gemini 4 Argon on September 30, 2026, calling it its most powerful model yet.

Built for Long, Multi-Step Work

Gemini 4 Argon targets long, multi-step tasks in software engineering, defensive cybersecurity and enterprise knowledge work. Its output token limit has been expanded to 1 million tokens.

Defenders Get It First

The first users are trusted cyber defenders in Google's Fairwind Program rather than paying customers. Reports say the model can autonomously find, validate and fix critical vulnerabilities. Paid API access and Google AI Ultra subscribers come later, and Google says it is participating in the US government's voluntary pre-release model access process.

Pricing

Introductory pricing is $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, with regular pricing of $4 and $20. No date was announced for broader paid availability.

Attackers Will Have Similar Tools

Releasing a vulnerability-hunting model to defenders first is a recognition that the same capability helps attackers. For every business, it raises the bar: patch quickly, and assume unpatched known flaws will be found faster than before.
