Antigravity Browser Automation Demo

Antigravity controls Chrome to test your web app automatically. See it in action.

Beyond Text Generation

LLMs are great at writing code, but can they use the software they build? Antigravity's Browser Automation capability allows the agent to launch a headless Chrome instance and interact with your web app.

Use Case: End-to-End Testing

Imagine you are building a login flow. Instead of writing Cypress tests by hand, you can say:

"Go to localhost:3000/login. Try logging in with 'user@example.com' and 'wrongpassword'. Verify that the error message says 'Invalid credentials'."

Antigravity spins up a browser, clicks the input fields, types the text, and takes a screenshot of the result.

Self-Healing UI

If the agent detects a visual bug (e.g., "The button is off-center"), it can correlate the DOM element back to the specific React component that rendered it.

It can then edit the CSS, hot-reload the page, take another screenshot, and verify the fix—all without you leaving the editor.

Security Sandbox

Browser automation is powerful but risky. Antigravity runs the browser in a sandboxed container. It cannot access your local file system (except for the download folder) and network traffic is tunneled through a proxy to prevent leaking internal IP addresses.

About Google Antigravity IDE

Google Antigravity is the next-generation AI-first Integrated Development Environment (IDE) powered by Gemini 3. Unlike traditional editors that merely autocomplete code, Antigravity features autonomous agents that can plan, write, debug, and test complex software systems.

Designed for the post-Copilot era, it features a 2 Million Token Context Window, allowing it to understand your entire codebase, documentation, and dependencies in real-time.Download the Preview →

Frequent Questions

  • Is Antigravity free?Yes, the Public Preview is free to use. A Pro tier with higher rate limits will be available later.
  • Does it support VS Code extensions?Absolutely. Antigravity handles 99% of VS Code extensions natively via the OpenVSX registry.
  • How does it compare to Cursor?Antigravity offers a significantly larger context window (2M vs 200k) and deeper agentic capabilities for autonomous tasks.
