> Experimental browser generating interactive apps and tools from open tabs

Disco is an experimental AI-powered browser from Google Labs designed to transform web research into custom interactive tools. Its core GenTabs feature synthesizes information across multiple open tabs into custom applications like planners, comparison tables, and trackers. It also includes an AI pointer that highlights key content, answers inline questions, and feeds data back into generated apps.
