An experimental version of the Agent
mode in the Gemini app will be coming soon to subscribers.
This is a new and emerging area and we are excited to explore
how best to bring the benefits of agents to users. and

Check out this short video extract that's
focused on one use case, to find shared roommate housing:

Here's some of the key transcript and this
powerful use case for the Gemini Agent Mode:
"We are excited
to announce that our Gemini SDK is now compatible with MCP tools. These
technologies will work together to make agents even more useful and we are
starting to bring Agentic capabilities to Chrome
search and the Gemini app.
Let me show you what we are excited about in the Gemini app.
We call it Agent mode.
Say you want to find an apartment for you and two roommates in
Austin. You've each got a budget of $1,200 a month. You want a washer
& dryer or at least a Laundromat nearby. Normally, you'd have to spend a
lot of time scrolling through endless listings. Using Agent
mode, the Gemini app goes to work behind the scenes. It finds listings from
sites like Zillow that match your criteria, and uses
Project Mariner when needed to adjust very specific filters.
If there's an apartment you want to check out, Gemini uses MCP
to access the listings and even schedule a tour on your behalf.
And it'll keep browsing for new listings for as long as you
need, freeing you up to do the stuff you want to do, like plan the housewarming
party. It's great for companies like Zillow, bringing in new customers and
improving conversion rates.
An experimental version of the Agent
mode in the Gemini app will be coming soon to subscribers. This is a new and
emerging area and we are excited to explore how best to bring the benefits of
agents to users and the ecosystem more broadly."

Google just announced
that the Gemini SDK is now compatible with MCP tools. What are
those tools?
Yes! Google has announced that the Gemini SDK is now
compatible with MCP tools, which stands for
Model Context Protocol. MCP is an open standard designed to
help large language models (LLMs) like Gemini interact
with external applications, data sources, and tools
more efficiently.
What Are MCP Tools?
MCP tools allow AI models to: ✅ Access
external data sources – Fetch real-time information from APIs
and databases. ✅ Execute actions – Perform automated
tasks like scheduling, searching, and filtering. ✅ Integrate
with third-party applications – Connect with platforms like
Chrome, Search, and Gemini App for enhanced
functionality.
Experimental Agent Mode in Gemini App
Google is also rolling out an experimental
version of Agent Mode in the Gemini app, which
will soon be available to subscribers
This mode enables AI-powered automation,
such as:
🔹 Apartment hunting – Finds listings
from sites like Zillow and filters them using Project Mariner.
🔹 Task automation – Uses MCP tools
to schedule tours, browse listings, and refine searches.
🔹 Continuous browsing – Keeps
searching for new listings until the user finds the perfect
match.
Would you like insights on how to integrate
MCP tools into AI workflows or how Agent Mode could
impact business automation? 🚀

Build Powerful AI Tools in Minutes with Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Learn how to create your own AI agents using the Model Context
Protocol (MCP) standard with just a few lines of code!
This tutorial shows you how to build an Airbnb apartment
search tool that demonstrates the power and simplicity of MCP integration.
https://docs.praison.ai/mcp/airbnb

🔑 What is Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
A universal AI tool standard to connect any AI tool with any AI agent
Instantly add dozens of tools to any AI agent
Build custom agents independent from tool providers
Create your own AI infrastructure in minutes, not months
Access thousands of MCP tools to connect to virtually any software
📊 Why MCP Matters
One of the highest trending topics on Twitter
Transforms AI workflows from weeks of integration to minutes of implementation
Join the top 1% of AI developers while others struggle with complex integrations
Early adopters will define the future of AI workflow automation
🛠️ Before vs After MCP
*Before MCP:*
Custom code needed for every tool
Incompatible AI frameworks
Weeks of integration work
*After MCP:*
Simple configuration file
Universal tool standard
Minutes to implement (literally minutes!)
💼 Practical Applications Imagine waking up tomorrow and your AI agent:
- Automatically searches the web for you
- Manages code repositories without manual commands
- Queries all your databases through natural language
- Organizes all your files while you sleep

7 tips for getting started with AI agents and automations
AI-powered automation doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
Here are actionable tips to start small and scale thoughtfully.
Melissa Reeve on May 21, 2025 at 9:00 am | Reading time: 6 minutes
Key Takeaways:
1️⃣ Start Small – Begin with simple
automation tasks, like summarizing AI news, to build confidence. 2️⃣
Know When to Quit – Not all automation efforts succeed; recognize when
manual processes are more effective. 3️⃣ Understand Agents vs. Workflows
– Agents make decisions dynamically, while workflows follow a set sequence. 4️⃣
Scale Thoughtfully – Automate repetitive tasks that add up over
time to improve efficiency. 5️⃣ Think Like AI – Consider what
context AI lacks when troubleshooting automation failures. 6️⃣ Share
Knowledge – Communicate automation goals clearly to ensure team
adoption. 7️⃣ Refine Automations – Continuously track
performance and adjust automation strategies for better results.
The article emphasizes practical AI adoption,
encouraging marketers to start small, iterate, and focus on efficiency
rather than complexity.
Would you like insights on how to apply these
automation strategies to affiliate marketing or lead generation? 🚀
