Verizon today announced the addition of Google One AI Premium into its myPlan and myHome offerings, marking the first instance of a U.S. wireless provider incorporating an AI-powered perk into its services. Starting February 6, Verizon customers can add this feature to their plans for an additional $10 per month, a discount from the standard $19.99 monthly fee for Google One AI Premium.
Users who take advantage of the new feature will receive access to Gemini Advanced, Google's latest AI assistant. Because Gemini integrates so seamlessly within Google’s suite of apps, users can use the AI in nearly every application. From writing support within Gmail and Google Docs to taking notes in Meet, creating presentation in Slides, and staying organized in Sheets, Gemini Advanced assists users in a number of ways. Additionally, subscribers receive 2 TB of cloud storage, ensuring ample space for files, photos, and videos.
Sowmyanarayan Sampath, CEO of Verizon Consumer, emphasized the company's commitment to innovation, stating, "As the first U.S. wireless provider to offer an AI-powered perk at an incredible value, we're putting the future of AI directly into our customers' hands, making everyday tasks easier via Google One AI Premium."
Beyond the core features, Google One AI Premium also offers tools like Deep Research, enabling users to analyze extensive documents and generate comprehensive reports swiftly. The service allows the creation of custom AI experts, or "Gems," tailored to specific topics, serving as personal brainstorming partners, study helpers, or planning assistants.
