My solution was OpenRouter. Their dev and testing chat can generate images with Google models, and you can also run the same prompt side by side with other models. It’s very handy for casual image generation.
And some stuff like Project Genie is just flat out unavailable on Workspace which seems weird to me.
The problem is extracting oneself from google is non-trivial. That must be a decade of emails...
The downside is that their Android calendar app is shit (a rewrite should come later this year), and Android contact syncing doesn't exist (planned for 2027). Not sure how the situation looks on iOS, but AFAIK it's similar.
Their iOS mail app is fine though doesn’t do offline caching as well as Gmail
Alas UI isn't the problem. I want google to fix their broken plans.
Why can a FREE consumer account use antigravity but my $22 plan can't?
It's not even consistent within my account. I can generate a Banana 2 image in gemini interface but on aistudio it says I need to pay for an upgrade (which I can't).
Do they design their plans with a strong pull from a joint and a magic 8 ball?
for keys we support openai, google, bytedance, and wavespeed which is an aggregator that gives you access to most models.
if you are asking is Windows in the works, not near term. unless enough people ask i suppose.
So I need to run (AND PAY!) two accounts to have both a nice email address and Banana? Starting to think the correct number of paid google accounts here is zero.
