Google drops Disco: An AI browser that builds apps from your tabs

Technology

Google just unveiled Disco, a new experimental web browser powered by Gemini 3 AI.
Its standout trick? GenTabs—these can turn your open tabs and chat history into custom mini-apps for things like trip planning or studying, all with handy source links.

What makes disco different?

Forget the old URL bar—Disco gives you a central prompt box for typing questions or web addresses.
GenTabs can suggest useful apps even if you don't ask, and you can tweak requests in plain language.
It's designed to help with everyday stuff like meal planning, trip planning, or educational tasks.
For now, Disco is only on macOS and you'll need to join a waitlist via Google Labs.

How does it stack up?

Disco uses Gemini 3 to build no-code web apps by pulling info from your open tabs and chats, letting you do more than just browse static pages.
Unlike ChatGPT or Gemini chatbots, it creates interactive widgets right inside your browser.
It's part of a growing wave of AI browsers—think Perplexity's Comet and OpenAI's Atlas—all trying to make browsing smarter (and maybe more fun).
