Gemini 2.5 Pro just got an upgrade & is now even better at coding, with significant gains in front-end web dev, editing, and transformation.
We also fixed a bunch of function calling issues that folks have been reporting, it should now be much more reliable. More details in 🧵

The new model, "gemini-2.5-pro-preview-05-06" is the direct successor / replacement of the previous version (03-25), if you are using the old model, no change is needed, it should auto route to the new version with the same price and rate limits.

And don't just take our word for it:
“The updated Gemini 2.5 Pro achieves leading performance on our junior-dev evals. It was the first-ever model that solved one of our evals involving a larger refactor of a request routing backend. It felt like a more senior developer because it was able to make correct judgement calls and choose good abstractions.”

Developers really like 2.5 Pro:
“We found Gemini 2.5 Pro to be the best frontier model when it comes to "capability over latency" ratio. I look forward to rolling it out on Replit Agent whenever a latency-sensitive task needs to be accomplished with a high degree of reliability.”
– Michele Catasta, President, Replit

Super excited to see how everyone uses the new 2.5 Pro model, and I hope you all enjoy a little pre-IO launch : )
The team has been super excited to get this into the hands of everyone so we decided not to wait until IO.
