We’re rolling out a new type of Gem from @GoogleLabs that lets you create interactive, AI mini-apps on desktop.
These experimental Gems turn your prompts into actionable tools that can help you complete everyday tasks or explore new ideas.
Here’s what you can build 🧵
Opal, meet @Geminiapp. 🤝
We’ve now brought Opal, our tool for building AI-powered mini apps, directly into the Gemini web app as an experimental Gem. You can find the Opal Gem in your Gems manager and start creating reusable mini apps to unlock even more customized Gemini experiences.
Go forth and customize! Learn more here: https://t.co/rbvxyizt8v
Opal is great for power users who want to create their own AI workflows. If you're a Gems power user in @GeminiApp, this one will feel next level.
Give it a spin and let us know what you think!
Opal is going global! 🌎 We're expanding access to 15 new countries so more people can build AI-powered mini-apps — no code required. Inspired by user feedback, we're also launching new features like advanced debugging and a faster building experience.

I saw Ryan's tweet this morning and immediately thought that Google's Opal (mini-applications through natural language descriptions and a visual workflow editor) would be the perfect tool to build a working version of a Mad Libs style AI video generator.
20 mins of messing around with the workflow editor and prompts - and the result is *chef's kiss*! Such amazing videos. Can't wait to show this to my kiddo.

cc: @joshwoodward - lifetime supply of beer (or alcoholic/ non-alcoholic beverages of choice) to the people in Labs working on Opal. Love the simplicity of the interface.
New Opal experiment: record your kid telling a story → get back a fully illustrated custom storybook ✨

Still playing with character consistency & extra options, but it’s been a lot of fun to make (and use).
Had a play with Google's experiment Opal and made a kid's bedtime story generator. Looks eerily similar to tldraw in the editor.

This is SO cool! Huge congrats on the launch @jacalulu@dalmaer@dglazkov & team! 🚀
Had to take it for a spin immediately and was blown away. I built 3 mini apps in a few minutes just by describing them.
I filmed my first reactions and builds here:
