Google AI Ultra limits are ridiculously low for a $100 subscription

I recently upgraded from Google AI Pro to Google AI Ultra, mainly because Google advertises Ultra as offering significantly higher usage limits.

With the $20 Pro subscription, I was able to generate around 50 4K Nano Banana Pro images per day in Google AI Studio.

So after upgrading to the $100 Ultra plan, I expected a substantial increase — realistically, I was expecting at least around 200 4K images per day.

Instead, I'm getting only around 100 4K Nano Banana Pro images.

So I'm paying 5x more, but getting only about 2x the image generation limit.

That honestly seems absurd for a plan that is supposed to be aimed at heavy AI users.

Veo 3.1 is even more disappointing. I'm only able to generate around 10 videos in 1080p before hitting the limit.

I knew Ultra wasn't going to be unlimited, but I genuinely didn't expect the limits to be this low considering the price difference between Pro and Ultra.

If Pro gives me around 50 4K images for $20, I think expecting at least 200 on a $100 Ultra subscription is pretty reasonable.

Has anyone else with Google AI Ultra tested the current AI Studio limits? Are you also getting around 100 Nano Banana Pro 4K images and ~10 Veo 3.1 1080p videos per day?

Google AI Ultra users: how many Veo 3.1 videos can you actually generate per day in AI Studio?

I'm considering subscribing to the Google AI Ultra plan (the ~$100/month tier), mainly for Veo 3.1 video generation in Google AI Studio.

Google says Ultra provides higher AI Studio usage limits, but I can't find any actual numbers for Veo.

I'm specifically talking about AI Studio (aistudio.google.com) — NOT Flow, the Gemini app, or paid Gemini API usage.

For anyone who currently has Google AI Ultra and uses Veo 3.1 in AI Studio:

  • Roughly how many Veo 3.1 videos can you generate before hitting the daily quota?
  • Which model are you using: Veo 3.1, Veo 3.1 Fast, Veo 3.1 Lite, etc.?
  • Does 1080p use the quota faster than 720p?
  • Have you ever actually reached the limit? If yes, after approximately how many generations?
  • Does the quota reset daily?
  • If you have Ultra 5x (~$100) rather than Ultra 20x (~$200), please mention that, since I'm especially interested in the $100 plan.

Even a rough real-world number would be very helpful — for example, "I generated 30 videos today and still didn't hit the limit" or "I hit the quota after 15 generations."

I'm trying to figure out whether Ultra is worth subscribing to specifically for high-volume Veo 3.1 generation in AI Studio.

Thanks!
