Overview
- Canvas is now live in Google Search’s AI Mode for U.S. users in English, expanding beyond prior Labs and Gemini placements.
- Users access it by opening AI Mode, tapping the plus tool, and selecting Canvas to launch the dedicated side panel.
- From natural-language prompts, Canvas generates working prototypes for apps, games, or websites, then allows testing, code view, and iterative refinement through chat.
- The workspace pulls current web results and Google’s Knowledge Graph to assemble dashboards or research-driven documents.
- Reporters demonstrated quick builds such as a T‑shirt storefront prototype and a subway tracker that integrated live New York MTA data.
