"Gizmo, a TikTok-like app for vibe-coded mini applications, is offering a new way to create interactive media. The relatively new mobile app from the startup Atma Sciences lets anyone create experiences using text, photos, sound, and touch, which are then displayed in a vertical feed, similar to TikTok or Reels. But unlike traditional short-form video apps, you don't just watch and scroll in Gizmo - you play."
"Instead, you can simply type out an AI prompt to explain your idea using natural language. The app then leverages AI coding technology to turn your idea into an interactive experience by generating the code that makes it work. As part of this process, Gizmo will also render your idea visually to ensure that each app functions properly and runs smoothly."
"Depending on the type of "Gizmo" you encounter, you might poke the screen, swipe, tap, draw, drag, and more to interact with the mini app. These Gizmos aren't just games but are more like digital toys - things that could include interactive puzzles, memes, art, animation, or anything else a creator can dream up. The result is an engaging, playful feed, where you can like and comment on the tiny creations and even remix existing Gizmos to create your own version, if you choose."
Gizmo is a mobile app that displays vibe-coded mini applications in a vertical feed similar to TikTok or Reels. Users interact with Gizmos by poking, swiping, tapping, drawing, dragging, and other touch-based gestures to play digital toys that range from puzzles and memes to art and animation. Creators can remix existing Gizmos and engage via likes and comments. No coding is required; natural language AI prompts generate the code and render visual assets so ideas run smoothly. AI and human moderators vet apps for safety. Atma Sciences, a New York startup, raised a $5.49 million seed round.
