Google Gemini 3.1 Pro: Everything new in the updated AI model

Google has introduced Gemini 3.1 Pro, the newest release in the Gemini 3 lineup, aimed at pushing performance further in areas that demand deeper thinking and precision. This version is built to handle demanding workloads, making it suitable for professionals, researchers, and creators who need reliable results when tackling complex problems.

It also serves as the foundation for Gemini 3 Deep Think, reflecting its role as a more advanced and capable model within the ecosystem.

What’s new in Gemini 3.1 Pro?

Compared to Gemini 3 Pro, this update delivers noticeable improvements across several key areas. The most significant improvements include stronger logical reasoning, better support for autonomous, multi-step workflows, and expanded creative capabilities such as SVG animations and interactive simulations.

Improved logical reasoning

One of the standout upgrades in Gemini 3.1 Pro is its leap in reasoning ability. According to data shared by Google, the model’s score on the ARC-AGI-2 benchmark increased from 35% to 77.1%. This benchmark focuses on how well an AI can recognise patterns, draw conclusions, and solve unfamiliar logic-based challenges.

In practical terms, this means the model is far better at breaking down complicated problems, understanding hidden relationships, and arriving at accurate solutions.

During testing, Gemini 3.1 Pro answered more than twice as many questions correctly as Gemini 3 Pro, highlighting a clear step forward in problem-solving depth and consistency.

More capable agent-style workflows

Gemini 3.1 Pro is designed to carry out long, multi-stage tasks with minimal supervision. Instead of requiring constant prompts, it can plan and execute a full workflow on its own. For example, it can gather data from multiple sources, clean and analyse it, and then present the results in a structured report or a visual dashboard.

This makes it especially useful for scenarios where tasks involve many steps and tools working together. Analysts, researchers, and teams handling large datasets can save time by letting the model handle the process from start to finish, rather than overseeing each step.

Advanced SVG animation and interactive creation

Another area where Gemini 3.1 Pro stands out is digital content creation. The model can turn abstract ideas into fully realised interactive experiences, combining design, animation, and code.

Some key examples include:

Scalable SVG animations: The model can generate animated icons and graphics in SVG format, which remain sharp at any size and use far less space than traditional video files. Because SVGs are code-based rather than pixel-based, they load quickly and maintain quality across devices.
Interactive 3D simulations: Gemini 3.1 Pro can build simulations that respond to user input, such as clicks or gestures. One demonstration featured a 3D flock of birds that users could manipulate with hand tracking, demonstrating how the model blends logic, visuals, and interactivity.
Turning concepts into working code: The model can translate creative ideas into functional interfaces, dashboards, or applications. In one example, it created a portfolio inspired by Wuthering Heights, capturing the novel’s mood and expressing it through a modern, interactive web layout.
Complex system dashboards: Gemini 3.1 Pro can pull together data from multiple sources and present it in a clear, visual format. A notable example involved building a live aerospace dashboard using public data to display the International Space Station’s orbit in real time.

What is the main focus of Gemini 3.1 Pro?

This model is built for demanding tasks that go beyond simple text generation. Its core strengths include:

Analysing and organising large amounts of information
Solving problems that require advanced reasoning and structured thinking
Turning vague or abstract ideas into practical, usable outputs
Creating interactive digital assets such as dashboards, animations, and simulations
Running multi-step processes independently while connecting different tools and systems

How to use Gemini 3.1 Pro

Gemini 3.1 Pro is available through the Gemini app for all users. It can also be accessed in NotebookLM by Pro and Ultra subscribers during the preview phase, where new features and agent workflows are tested before wider release.

For developers, the model is accessible through several platforms, including the Gemini API, Google Antigravity, Android Studio, Gemini CLI via Google AI Studio, and enterprise-focused solutions such as Vertex AI and Gemini Enterprise. These options make it flexible for both individual experimentation and large-scale professional deployment.
