I got a private lesson on Google's NEW Gemini 3.0 AI Model

On today’s episode I stress-test Gemini 3.0 in Google AI Studio to see how good it really is as a designer, not just a code generator. Across the episode, I ask Gemini to redesign my personal website in a Windows XP–inspired style, build a restaurant analytics SaaS dashboard, and create a workout mobile app inspired by the “Brain Rot” app. Along the way, I experiment with prompts, visual annotations, and reference images to see how well Gemini takes feedback. By the end, he’s rating each build. Timestamps 00:00 – Intro 00:54 – Personal Website 15:48 – SaaS 21:52 – Mobile App 26:35 – AntiGravity 27:17 – Final rating and takeaways Key Points Gemini 3.0 can now generate full, styled web and mobile UIs (not just “purple Tailwind vibe-coded” layouts) when given strong prompts and references. greg-take-02 A Windows XP–themed personal site, built from a screenshot and a short prompt, impresses Greg enough that he considers redoing his actual homepage. greg-take-02 Visual annotation inside Google AI Studio (drawing on the canvas and commenting) is a powerful way to refine icons, backgrounds, and layout without “speaking designer.” greg-take-02 A restaurant analytics SaaS dashboard (“Chef OS”) shows how combining Dribbble shots + Teenage Engineering hardware as references pushes Gemini toward more tactile, “real button” UI. greg-take-02 The “Gains” workout app, modeled on the Brain Rot app, demonstrates that AI can remix an existing product pattern into a new behavior-change app with streaks, goals, and a reactive mascot. greg-take-02 Greg’s big takeaway: good ideas + taste + references + Gemini 3.0 let non-designers ship highly differentiated experiences, raising their odds of standing out. greg-take-02 The #1 tool to find startup ideas/trends - https://www.ideabrowser.com LCA helps Fortune 500s and fast-growing startups build their future - from Warner Music to Fortnite to Dropbox.

Get a private, on-screen walkthrough of Google’s new Gemini 3.0 with Logan Kilpatrick. We vibe-code full apps, games, and product UIs in real time. You’ll see how to go from raw idea to working product in a single prompt, then iterate visually with design, features, and AI workflows. They turn an IdeaBrowser concept into a live talent-matching platform, screenshot-clone the IdeaBrowser UI, wire up a “generate tomorrow’s idea” feature grounded in Google Search, and even add co-founder matching on top. If you’re building with AI or still on the fence, this episode shows what’s now possible with Gemini 3.0 Pro in AI Studio. Timestamps 00:00 – Intro 01:00 – What Gemini 3 is and where it lives (Gemini app, AI Studio, API) 03:03 – Vibe Coding 3D games 09:27 – Vibe Coding an idea from IdeaBrowser 25:02 – Screenshot-cloning the IdeaBrowser UI and regenerating it in Gemini Key Points Gemini 3.0 Pro in AI Studio lets you “vibe code” full apps—UI, logic, and AI features—from natural-language prompts, then iteratively refine them. Games and complex simulations are a stress-test and showcase for the model’s capabilities, not just toys. You can paste an entire business idea (like IdeaBrowser’s generational talent-matching concept) into AI Studio and get a working, multi-screen product with AI-powered workflows. Gemini 3.0 Pro is free to use inside AI Studio up to generous limits, and the API is priced at $2 per million input tokens and $12 per million output tokens under 200K input tokens. Screenshot-driven UI cloning plus “add five more features” prompts are powerful loops for product and UX ideation. You can layer social features like co-founder matching directly on top of idea-discovery products with only a few additional prompts.

Master Your Cashflow (Templates Included): https://startup-ideas-pod.link/money-map On this episode, I share my simple financial operating system that helps me run my business. I share actual workflows that have saved one of my portfolio company from an 11-week runway crisis (when they thought they had 8 months), and the templates behind his 13-week cash tracker, Bear/Base/Bull decision framework, and one-page board report. This is a rare look inside the tactics I use to think about cash flow, dilution strategy, and building companies that don't run out of runway by accident.

New format, same value. I cover one startup idea, one trend, one news debate, one growth framework, one AI tool, and one product recommendation. Timestamps 00:00 – Intro 00:53 – Startup Idea 05:55 – Trend 08:17 – News Item 12:05 – Product Framework 15:31 – AI Tool 17:00 – Product Recommendation Startup Idea Solo Female Travel Safety Platform The problem: 84% of solo female travelers feel unsafe. No reliable platform answers basic safety questions. The solution: Map-based reviews where verified female travelers rate neighborhoods, hotels, and restaurants on actual safety metrics. Path to $500K ARR: 5,000 members at $30/month Hotel safety certifications at $500/month Lead magnet: Free travel safety quiz Distribution: Facebook groups (400K members), travel influencers, short-form video Trend: Gamification UI: Duolingo did it. Social platforms are built on it. More apps and websites are adding points, badges, leaderboards, and challenges. The opportunity: Launch an agency specializing exclusively in gamification. Start at $10K/month. News Item Ex-Reddit CEO: "AI Startups Have 12-18 Months" Yishan's viral take (20M views): AI apps are flash-in-the-pan cash grabs. Foundational models will crush them. Greg's counter: Great AI wrappers that own workflows, customers, and network effects will build billion-dollar companies. Remember when everyone said Apple would clone every successful app? That didn't happen. Product Framework: 3-Step Creator Growth Playbook for SaaS Attach the right creator (target 120K followers or less for higher response rates) Offer generous affiliates (30-50% lifetime, not 10-20%) Gamify the experience (contests, trips, prizes for top performers) Real example: Goji (apple cider vinegar gummy) hit hundreds of millions using gamified TikTok Shop affiliates. AI Tools: Krea AI: Alternative to Glyph AI. Generate images, video, 3D objects. Features Nodes product for building creative workflows. Mini apps: Virtual try-on, hairstyle generator, object remover, product photo editor. Product Recommendations: La Colombe Cold Brew (Light Roast) - $5-8.49 at Target for multiple servings. Light, smooth, always cold when you need it. Olipop Classic Root Beer - 35 cal, 3g sugar. Better than Diet Coke. 8.5/10.

On this episode we dive deep into Glif. This beginner tutorial shows how AI agents on Glif automatically optimize prompts and workflows to create scroll-stopping content. We demo four agents live: Mr. Beast-style thumbnails, miniature documentaries, AI influencer videos, and automated Reddit story content. Total cost: $2. Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro 03:35 – Nano Banana Ultimate 08:53 – Diorama Shorts Creator 15:49 – AI Influencer Generator 23:27 – TikTok Reddit Story Creator 32:28 – Conclusion and Final Thoughts Key Frameworks: The ACP Funnel (Audience → Community → Product) Build businesses in this order: First create an Audience with storytelling/content (use creative AI here), then build a Community with paid memberships or IRL events, then create a Product to sell to them. This gives you the highest probability of success. Modern Social Strategy: 1 Brand + 10 People Old way: 1 brand account on multiple platforms. New way: 1 brand account + 10 different people accounts (real and AI influencers) across platforms. If 1-2 of 10 pop off, you win. Four Demos Shown: Nano Banana Ultimate: Redesigned thumbnail Mr. Beast-style with proper aspect ratios, high contrast, exaggerated expressions—got 3 variants that couldn't be achieved with regular Nano Banana Miniature Documentary Creator: Created 40-second tilt-shift video about Facebook IPO in ~5 minutes using Seadream, WAN 2.2, 11Labs—includes research, script, voiceover, animations, period music, and subtitles (agencies charge thousands; this cost $0.40) AI Influencer Generator: Generated 35-year-old woman in tennis clothing using Quen Realism and OmniHuman—creates realistic talking head videos for brand representative accounts or video ads at zero production cost Reddit Story Automation: Scraped r/SaaS for story about developer building $1M SaaS through Reddit, generated educational 60-second video with voiceover, Pexels stock footage, and subtitles—enables faceless content channels (example cited: 67% of customers from Reddit, zero CAC) Key Insight: AI agents get you 80% there but you still need to be the creative director, push agents to create better scripts, expect to iterate, and manually review for character consistency and details.

Join me as I chat with Jonathan Courtney about how businesses can thrive by going against current digital trends, particularly by offering premium in-person experiences while others focus on AI and virtual offerings. He shares how his company has successfully transitioned from digital-only to in-person events, charging higher prices for physical experiences that consistently sell out. The conversation explores how physical products and experiences create perceived value, authenticity, and scarcity that digital alternatives cannot replicate.
