Partnering with Cassava Technologies to bring Gemini to millions across Africa
AI is transforming how we learn, build, and create. This opportunity is especially urgent across Africa, the world's youngest continent, home to digital natives already shaping global culture through art, music, and technology.
Unlocking access for everyone
For AI to reach its full potential, it must be accessible. Across the continent, two major hurdles hold back adoption: the cost of tools and the fear of “running out of data.”
Today, we’re excited to announce a strategic partnership between Gemini and Cassava that will address both challenges:
- Data-free Gemini access: Cassava is working with its extensive network of technology partners to ensure eligible users can use the Gemini app without consuming any of their mobile data.
- Six free months of Google AI Plus: We’re offering a 6-month trial of our Google AI Plus plan, giving users free access to our most intelligent models.
A new era for education
We’re excited about AI opening a new frontier for education, helping students, teachers, and parents learn in personalized ways.
We see a future where students can access Gemini 24/7 to learn new concepts, code, and create without ever watching a data meter. With the Google AI Plus trial, they can use Deep Research for complex university-level subjects, and enjoy higher creation limits for images and video with our newest creativity models.
The Google AI Plus plan also includes:
- NotebookLM to instantly turn dense textbooks into interactive study guides, flashcards, audio summaries, and more
- Gemini in Google Docs to help write papers, scholarship forms, and job applications
- Google Flow for aspiring filmmakers and creative storytelling
- 200GB of cloud storage

Looking ahead, a shared vision drives our partnership: democratizing AI for millions across Africa’s rapidly digitizing economies. We can't wait to see what you will learn, build, and create.
