AntigravityClaude CodeChoose Google Antigravity if you are developers who want to try the most agentic IDE experience available today. Choose Claude Code if you are developers who want the strongest end-to-end coding agent, in the terminal or IDE.
In our editorial scoring, Claude Code leads in 3 of six categories (output quality, reliability and ease of use), while Google Antigravity leads in 1 (value). On price, Google Antigravity runs free public preview and is proprietary; Claude Code runs included with claude pro/max / api and is proprietary.
Antigravity is Google's agentic development platform, launched alongside Gemini 3: a VS Code-style IDE where an agent manager dispatches agents that work across the editor, terminal, and a Chrome browser they control — producing verifiable artifacts (plans, screenshots, browser recordings) as they go. The free public preview and Gemini 3 Pro quality made it an instant heavyweight, but it's still early: capacity limits, preview rough edges, and early prompt-injection concerns around the browser-control surface mean production teams should keep a human on the loop.
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool. It searches and understands your codebase, plans multi-step changes, edits files, runs tests and shell commands, and works through git workflows including commits and pull requests. Widely regarded as the quality benchmark among terminal coding agents, it's extensible through MCP servers, hooks, and subagents, and also ships as IDE extensions and a desktop app.
