Google unveils Gemini 4 Carbon with initial access for cyber defenders
Google says the model generates secure code at more than twice Argon's success rate on internal benchmarks, with introductory pricing unchanged.

Alphabet's Google introduced Gemini 4 Carbon on October 28, adding a model focused on coding and cybersecurity to its Gemini lineup. Initial access is limited to selected cybersecurity defenders through the company's Fairwind Program while Google continues to test safeguards.
Google said Carbon achieved state-of-the-art results in finding vulnerabilities, exploiting them and patching software. On the company's internal benchmarks, its success rate for generating secure code was more than twice that of Gemini 4 Argon.
The model is designed for complicated engineering and coding work that takes extended periods to complete. Its debut follows the introduction of Argon two weeks earlier, as Google expands its offerings for developers and enterprise customers amid competition with OpenAI and Anthropic.
Carbon's pricing will match Argon's introductory rates. Google will charge $2 for each million input tokens and $10 for each million output tokens.
