2025 marks an explosive wave of browsers integrating artificial intelligence, when a series of technology giants such as Google, OpenAI, Perplexity simultaneously tested new ways for users to access the web.
In the midst of that race, Google suddenly announced Disco, a completely new testing browser, developed by the Chrome team and operated on the Gemini 3 platform.
According to Google, Disco is not simply a traditional web browsing tool. This browser is designed to reshape the way users browse and build a modern web, in which AI plays a central role.
The biggest difference of Disco is the Gen tabs feature, a tool that can turn natural-language queries or reminders into small custom applications.
Instead of opening each tab and synthesizing information yourself, users just need to enter a request. Disco will automatically open related pages, analyze data and create an application that matches the goals being achieved.
For example, when users ask for travel advice, Gen Tabs will immediately build a trip planning application, integrating the schedule, location and necessary information.
For students or learners, Disco can become an effective learning support tool. When asked to learn about a specific topic, Gen tabs will create a knowledge intuitization application, helping users access complex concepts in a more easy-to-understand way.
Google says these apps can continue to be refined with natural language commands, providing a seamless interactive experience.
While similar functions exist on AI chatbot like ChatGPT or Gemini, Disco is positioned by Google to go further.
This browser takes advantage of Gemini 3 to personalize the context experience, combine data from the browser and chat history, and always link up original information sources to ensure transparency.
Currently, Disco is only available as a pilot. Users who want to experience it must register for the waiting list on Google Labs, and the new application is only available on macOS.
Google also said that development ideas from Disco may be integrated into other products in the future, but has not confirmed plans for a wide release.
