The standout feature of Antigravity is its agent-first paradigm, shifting the development environment from a simple code assistant to a system where AI agents have greater autonomy to plan, execute, and verify tasks across various development tools including editor, terminal, and browser. Developers interact with these agents through two main views: the Editor view, which resembles traditional IDEs like Visual Studio Code with an added agent sidebar, and the Manager view, which acts as a control hub for coordinating multiple agents working asynchronously on parallel tasks. Agents communicate their progress through tangible deliverables called Artifacts, including implementation plans, task lists, walkthroughs, screenshots, and browser recordings, which make agent work transparent and verifiable.
Antigravity supports cross-platform usage on Windows, macOS, and Linux and is offered free of charge for individual developers with generous usage limits for the Gemini 3 Pro model. By integrating asynchronous interaction patterns and browser control capabilities, Antigravity not only accelerates coding but also enhances the orchestration of complex workflows that span coding, testing, and deployment phases. This innovative platform aims to become the developer's home base in the emerging era of agent-driven software creation, allowing sustained learning and continuous improvement as agents save useful context and code snippets into a knowledge base for future use.
