Gemini 2.5 Pro (I/O Edition)

Google has released a preview version of Gemini 2.5 Pro (I/O Edition) with significant upgrades in coding performance, UI design, and agentic workflows. This version builds on the strengths of the March release, introducing improvements in front-end web development and developer ergonomics, such as enhanced function calling and styling automation.

• Gemini 2.5 Pro now ranks #1 on the WebDev Arena leaderboard, reflecting top-tier capabilities in building visually and functionally sophisticated web apps.

• It excels in transforming video into interactive apps, showcased by generating learning tools from YouTube videos using its state-of-the-art video understanding (84.8% on VideoMME).

• Enhancements in developer workflows include context-aware CSS generation and UI styling, making it easier to implement new features directly from design specs.

• Companies like Cursor, Cognition, and Replit are leveraging their reasoning and code editing capabilities for agentic programming and production-level development.

The updated model (version 05-06) is available under the same API name and pricing, with improvements live by default via Google AI Studio and Vertex AI.
