Higher quality AND faster. Win + Win.

Nano Banana 2.1 is now live in Stitch 🍌

Try it the next time you’re generating hero graphics or vector-style logos for your UI, and let us know if you get cleaner visuals and more consistent results across your project.

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

Having sat in front of 100+ VCs (pre AI era).... this is so spot on.

I'm not sending my deck anymore 😂

@WarriorRapid We're fixing a few things - what have you noticed

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

Stitch CLI is here! This was built by an amazing and talented team who really gets developers (not bragging, cause it wasn't me :)

[Stitch by Google @stitchbygoogle]

We have a Stitch MCP. We have a Stitch SDK. But, we don't have a Stitch CLI. Well, not until now.

Introducing the @google/stitch CLI:

🔷 Connect to your local coding agents
🔷 Generate screens and design systems
🔷 Send a local dev server snapshot to Stitch

Do it all without leaving the terminal or better yet, ask your favorite harness like @antigravity 😎

Wow, I knew Argon was good but I didn't know it was that good. Congrats!

[Google AI @GoogleAI]

Announcing Gemini 4 Argon, our new frontier model.

Argon is built to sustain deep reasoning across complex, long-horizon workflows and delivers frontier performance in complex workflows across real-world software engineering, enterprise knowledge work like legal and finance, and cybersecurity defense.

We’re also expanding the model’s output token limit to an industry-leading 1M tokens.

Argon is currently rolling out to a set of trusted cyber defenders in the Fairwind Program, with broader availability as soon as possible.

I'm impressed with the speed and quality of Gemini 3.8 Flash image analysis. It's enabling some awesome things in Stitch

[Stitch by Google @stitchbygoogle]

Your brand assets, brought to life. ⚡️🖼️

Gemini 3.8 Flash excels at understanding visual context. Just drag your brand kit and product shots straight onto the Stitch prompt:

✨ Automatically extracts design systems and styling
✨ Generates cohesive layouts around your brand rules
✨ Seamlessly weaves your product imagery into marketing & product pages

Check out the workflow in the video below! 👇

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

I thought our video editor did a great job with this video. Would love to hear more from our users about why they love creating dashboards in Stitch?

[Stitch by Google @stitchbygoogle]

Spreadsheets are great for storing numbers. They’re terrible for showing them off. 📈👀

Lately, the Stitch community has been using their design partner to turn raw data dumps into sleek, production-ready dashboards:

🔹 Paste in CSVs, analytics exports, or workout logs

🔹 Ask Stitch for a specific vibe, layout, or design system

🔹 Instantly explore high-fidelity charts, stat callouts, and clean data hierarchies

🤖 Automation Hack: Pair Gemini Spark or Antigravity with the Stitch MCP Server. You can automate your daily tracking so a fresh, tailored dashboard is generated before your first cup of coffee.

Check out the demo to see how we turn raw data into eye candy! 🔊👇

@qazplm456456 @stitchbygoogle let us know if you are still seeing these errors

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@NelmerDLC @stitchbygoogle We are integrating a version of 'ideate mode' into the main flow... stay tuned

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

Great turnaround. Concern about Antigravity ToS posted on X and 24 hours later... ToS updated.

[Evan Otero @EvanOtero]

We’ve heard the feedback loud and clear that we need to be clearer on our terms in @antigravity.

We updated the below terms to be super clear that it only impacts your Antigravity and/or Gemini CLI accounts.

Keep the feedback coming and continue to make tokens go brrr 🚀

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

What are you building with Google Stitch and Flash 3.8? Are you finding the designs to be too cluttered? Should we ask the agent to turn down the density a bit?

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@arqnarabam And this was pre 3.8. Hopefully it just gets better. It's a little busy right now but we'll calm it down

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@grayscale_pixel Try again with 3.8 and let me know

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@ghxstloner @EvanOtero not anymore! @stitchbygoogle shipped with Flash 3.8 same day

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@sentientqubit crossed my mind, but I think Gemini's design mode will be more general purpose. Stitch will always be software focused

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

This should be 100% rolled out now to everyone, everywhere Stitch is available. Would love your feedback (reminder, Stitch is currently completely free of charge right now)

[Stitch by Google @stitchbygoogle]

Gemini 3.8 Flash has landed in Stitch! 🚀

Your design partner just leveled up:

👁️Attention to Detail: Screens look production-ready faster, with more detailed and realistic UI elements

🖼️Richer Visuals: Generates smarter underlying image prompts, delivering visuals that better align with your page content and brand

🎯 Improved Instruction Following: Grasps complex, nuanced design edits on the first try.

See the difference Gemini 3.8 Flash makes in the video below. Sound on and enjoy our new default model! 🔊👇

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

Let's go Flash 3.8! I think cost / task is under-rated

[matt palmer @mattyp]

Gemini 3.8 Flash is now available in Cursor - it is incredibly efficient and has one of the best cost / task ratios of any top 10 model

Updated rankings:

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@consergioalanis @stitchbygoogle would you like a remote control app (controls a bigger version of Stitch) or just a mobile version of Stitch (canvas is hard to translate to mobile device)

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@_a4fours @stitchbygoogle @itsakdev update the model. done :)

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@whostacking @stitchbygoogle We certainly had to move fast here... what could we do better next time (especially with short timeline)?

[Rustin Banks @rustinb]

@SeeLos @stitchbygoogle should be 100% now!
