Google has launched a new experimental AI-first browser called Disco. This browser will directly compete with ChatGPT Atlas. This browser automatically creates custom web apps based on the user's browsing activity. Google claims that instead of adding AI to a traditional browser, Disco makes AI the foundation of the browser. This launch comes at a time when competition among tech companies is intensifying over AI browsers. Let's learn about the features of the Google Disco browser…

Features of Google Disco
Google Disco is designed so that AI is present in every part of the browser. While browsers like ChatGPT Atlas add an AI layer on top of the traditional web experience, Disco places AI at its core from the beginning. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called Atlas a product that would end Chrome's 17-year dominance. In response, Google has tried to rethink the way browsers work with Disco.

GenTabs' feature is Disco's biggest strength.
Disco's most unique feature is GenTabs, which is based on Google's Gemini 3 AI model. This feature analyzes open tabs and transforms them into interactive apps. For example, when doing travel research, it automatically creates a trip planner, including maps and itineraries. During studies or research, it generates visual tools and learning aids, while for meal planning, it creates an app with recipes and shopping lists.

How is Disco different from Atlas, Comet, and Edge?
Browsers like ChatGPT Atlas, Perplexity Comet, and Microsoft Edge with Copilot focus on adding AI chat panels. Atlas offers features like a right-click AI menu and agent-based tasks, but it still functions like a traditional browser. In contrast, in Disco, AI-generated apps are the main part of the browser. Users can customize these apps with natural language commands, and all outputs remain linked to the source.

How to use it?
Google has currently released Disco for macOS users via a waitlist and has described it as a discovery vehicle. The company says that the ideas tested here could be incorporated into Chrome or other products in the future. However, many Google Labs projects have been shut down in the past, so questions remain about Disco's longevity. Nevertheless, it's clear that the browser war, particularly concerning AI, has reached a new level, and Google is not taking it lightly.
