We are thrilled to announce that Gemini 2.5 Pro is now available in Pickaxe. This is Google’s most advanced model yet, excelling at coding, reasoning, and handling complex prompts with accuracy and depth.
You can find it under the Model selection panel in your Builder. Simply click on the model card to select it for your Pickaxe.
When to Use Gemini 2.5 Pro
Gemini 2.5 Pro is the most capable model on Pickaxe and perfect for advanced Pickaxes that demand deep reasoning or expert-level accuracy. Use it when precision matters most, such as:
-
Code Review and Debugging: For analyzing and explaining complex code.
-
Data and Research Analysis: To process detailed spreadsheets, reports, or studies.
-
Legal, Policy, and Technical Writing: When your Pickaxe must understand nuance and complex logic.
-
Advanced Tutoring or Expert Bots: For learning, research, or specialized professional support.
If your Pickaxe is designed for lighter conversations, creative writing, or quick responses, consider using Gemini 2.5 Flash, GPT-5 Nano, or Claude Haiku 4.5 instead. These models are faster and more cost-efficient for casual chats and everyday tasks.
Gemini 2.5 Pro is your go-to model when you need the highest performance, accuracy, and reasoning ability. It is built for creators who want their Pickaxes to think deeper, respond smarter, and deliver results that truly stand out.
Finally 
Gemini can be an excellent choice for vibe-coding Pickaxe builds utilizing the Copilot feature! It’s great with code. Almost as good as Claude Opus 4.1
