2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- Access to Google’s proprietary Gemini Pro/Flash models
- Deep, built-in integrations across Google apps with first-party privileges
- YouTube Premium Lite and Google Home/Health bundled perks
- High usage limits and scale-backed features (expanded token/context windows, agentic capabilities)
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Google AI Pro, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
