Woah. It’s been a little over 2 months since the start of 2026. Here's what we’ve dropped so far: 🚀 @FlowbyGoogle: Our biggest update yet. We’ve redesigned the interface, bringing image generation to the forefront, making it easier to manage assets, and giving you more precise control over your images and videos. We also made improvements to Veo 3.1 and welcomed Nano Banana 2 to the model lineup for even more expressive and consistent outputs. (Also, come say hi on Instagram: @ flowbygoogle!) 🚀 @JulesAgent: A major speed boost, all Jules free-tier users have been upgraded from Gemini 2.5 Pro to Gemini 3 Flash. 🚀 SynthID: We've added the ability to check whether audio is Google AI-generated (in addition to image and video). Generative media content made with Labs products can be uploaded to the Gemini app to see if they've been generated using Google AI. Simply type @ SynthID and ask "Is this AI?" 🚀 @StitchbyGoogle: We leveled up the MCP ecosystem. Users can now get step-by-step MCP client instructions and grab their API key directly from the Exports panel. We also joined the Antigravity MCP store and added new tools, like a coding agent that can ask to edit screens and generate screen variants. 🚀 Project Genie: Introducing an early research prototype powered by @GoogleDeepMind’s Genie 3 model, Project Genie lets users create and explore infinitely diverse worlds. Available to AI Ultra subscribers in the US. 🚀 @NotebookLM: A massive month for mobile. Users can now add customization prompts to Infographics and Slide Decks directly and generate video overviews on the mobile app. Plus, NotebookLM partnered with @Zillow to launch a featured notebook pre-loaded with their extensive home buying resources. Be on the lookout for other exciting partnerships to come! 🚀 Pomelli: Launched ‘Photoshoot,’ allowing users to take a single image of their product and easily create high quality, customized product shots to elevate their marketing. 🚀 Opal: Introduced a new agent step that analyzes a goal, determines the next best step, and automatically calls models and tools to finish a the task, such as Veo for video or web search for research. 🚀 @Producer_AI: Welcomed ProducerAI to Labs! ProducerAI is a creative collaborator, whether writing lyrics, refining a melody, or inventing entirely new genres. What a start to the year. 2026 is just getting warmed up.
