Google AI Studio is a website where you can try Google's Gemini models, test prompts and settings, and then get code for the Gemini API.
In plain words
It is a playground in the browser. You type prompts, pick a model, change settings such as safety filters, and switch on tools like function calling or grounding. When the result looks right, a button gives you ready-made code in your chosen language. It is also where new users get a Gemini API key.
A quick example
Imagine you want a chatbot that answers as a friendly museum guide. You write the guide's instructions in AI Studio, chat with it to test, adjust the settings, then copy the generated Python code into your app.
Where you'll meet it
- Trying out new Gemini models before writing code.
- Getting a Gemini API key.
