Gemini 4 Argon at a glance

Gemini 4 Argon is Google's frontier model, announced on 30 September 2026. In Shorz it is a main AI: it writes scripts and scene prompts, reads transcripts and sampled frames to plan Auto Edit cuts, zooms and B-roll, ranks Clipping moments, and drives the in-app agent. It also runs the free tier — four full Auto Edit or Clipping renders a week for accounts with no credits.

  • Full commercial rights on what you create
  • No API keys to manage: the models run on your Shorz account
  • New model versions appear in the picker without an app update
  • Drivable from Claude, Cursor, Codex or Gemini over MCP
