Google's new tool wants to do your coding for you, and it's out of beta now

I’ve been testing nearly every AI tool since the boom began, and if there’s one tech giant that’s absolutely killing the game right now, it’s Google. At this point, I’d argue it’s leading the pack. Google’s AI-powered personalized research assistant, NotebookLM, needs no introduction at this point and is simply one of the best productivity tools out there.

But NotebookLM is far from the only AI tool that Google has been quietly working on. It’s been testing and playing around with different AI tools in Google Labs, which is the company’s experimental playground where it rolls out early versions of its most ambitious ideas for users to try before they go mainstream. One of these AI tools is Google’s first coding agent, which has been under public beta since May. Today, the coding agent is officially graduating out of beta, and it's ready to take on your coding tasks.

Google’s AI coding agent, Jules, is officially available for everyone

Today, Google Labs announced that its asynchronous coding agent, Jules, is finally available for everyone. The AI coding agent is powered by Gemini 2.5, the same model that powers the rest of Google's AI tools, including NotebookLM. Using Jules' "advanced thinking capabilities," the AI coding agent can come up with in-depth coding plans, ultimately leading to high-quality code outputs.

What makes Jules unique from the many AI coding tools out there is the fact that it can run multiple tasks in parallel. I'm currently majoring in computer science, and if there's one thing that stands out to me, it's how Jules approaches coding more like a team of engineers than a single assistant. You can assign it multiple tasks, and it’ll work through them simultaneously.

One of the key parts of a tool being tested in beta is for the team to get feedback and figure out what’s working, what’s not, and what needs to be completely rethought. That’s exactly what happened with Jules. The version of Jules we're getting today features a refreshed user-friendly interface, and also allows developers to reuse previous setups to allow new tasks to run a lot faster. Jules also comes with multimodal support now, meaning it can test your web applications for you and also show you a visual preview of what you're working on.

Finally, Google is also announcing new structured tiers for Jules, which come with higher limits for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers. Google AI Pro subscribers now get 5x higher limits, and Google AI Ultra users get 20x higher limits.

As a computer science student, I couldn't be more excited to see Jules finally out of beta, and I’m looking forward to putting it through its paces on real projects, both for uni and beyond.
