Google Labs has launched Opal, an experimental no-code tool that lets anyone create and share AI-powered mini-apps using natural language and visual editing.
In a statement on Thursday, Google Labs described Opal as a way to “empower creators, innovators, and doers to build the tools they imagine” by transforming basic instructions into powerful AI-driven workflows.
The tool enables users to chain together multiple prompts, AI model calls, and integrations into what Google calls “visual workflows.” These workflows can be created and refined entirely through plain-language commands or via Opal’s built-in visual editor.
“We wanted to make AI application building as intuitive as describing your idea to a friend,” the team said. “Whether you’re prototyping an AI concept, boosting workplace productivity, or creating something entirely new, Opal helps you go from idea to working app in minutes.”
Key features include:
Workflow Creation – Users can design complex, multi-step processes by simply describing the logic, which Opal then turns into a visual workflow.
Visual & Conversational Editing – Every component can be tweaked, rearranged, or enhanced without coding.
Instant Sharing – Finished apps can be shared with others, who can run them directly with their own Google accounts.
Opal also includes a demo gallery with starter templates, allowing users to either launch pre-built AI apps instantly or remix them to suit specific needs.
Google Labs emphasized that Opal is still experimental and will evolve with community feedback. “We believe the best way to build a new product is alongside the people who will use it,” the company said.
The launch marks Google’s latest step in making AI creation tools accessible to a wider audience — moving from code-heavy environments to a future where building AI-powered solutions is as simple as thinking them up.
