Study Guide
Google Gemini FULL COURSE (Build & Automate Anything)
Let's cut through the noise. You don't need a dozen disconnected apps and a bucket of tutorials to build useful AI products. You need one integrated system you can actually run your business on. That's what this course gives you: a practical, end-to-end way to ideate, design, build, and deploy with Google's AI ecosystem,centered around Gemini, and powered by AI Studio, Notebook LM, and Stitch.
By the end, you'll know how to create mini-apps with a single prompt, turn a screenshot into a working site, build voice agents that handle customer calls, and embed chatbots on your site that operate on your data. You'll also learn a simple framework,G.O.L.D.I.E.,to move from idea to live deployment without stress or overthinking. This is a one-hour masterclass in getting real outcomes, not theoretical knowledge you won't use.
One more thing. There's a new way to build with AI: "The old way was using 10 different AI tools that don't talk to each other. The new way is using Google's connected ecosystem where everything works together." Keep that line in your back pocket. It'll guide your decisions when the tool sprawl tries to pull you back in.
What This Course Covers and Why It Matters
The value here is simple: a single ecosystem that does research, content, design, code, and deployment,seamlessly. Gemini is your brain and hands. Notebook LM is your private library. Stitch is your design studio. AI Studio is your factory floor. The result? Faster builds, fewer moving parts, and more control.
We'll start with fundamentals, then go into practical builds: no-code apps, website redesigns, content automation, and intelligent agents. You'll learn how to combine tools in a flow that becomes second nature. You'll finish with a repeatable system and a handful of ready-to-deploy assets you can adapt to anything from client work to internal operations.
The Core Ecosystem at a Glance
Four tools, one brain. Here's how they fit together:
Gemini
Google's multimodal model and your main control panel. It understands text, images, and code. It has modes like Fast (quick iteration) and Pro (deeper, higher-quality reasoning). It also supports Canvas (for layout and code editing) and Dynamic View (for mini-apps and interactive outputs). You'll use it to plan, orchestrate, draft, generate, and test.
AI Studio
A web platform to build and prototype with Gemini, Imagen, and Veo. You can create chatbots, voice agents, and tools using prompts and simple configuration. It's the most direct path from idea to deployed experience, including an easy embed to your site.
Notebook LM
Your grounded research assistant. You upload documents, URLs, transcripts,Notebook LM sticks to your sources for answers. It can turn those sources into summaries, tables, quizzes, outlines, slides, audio overviews, and short videos. Perfect for team knowledge, study, and content repurposing.
Stitch
An AI UI/UX generator. Feed it a prompt or screenshot; it returns modern mockups with variants and predictive engagement heatmaps. Export to code (HTML/CSS) or push directly into AI Studio to "make it real." This is how you go from idea to functional interface in minutes.
Key Mental Models and Terminology
Context Window
The amount of content the model can process in one go. Gemini is known for a very large window (reportedly up to 1 million tokens), which means you can feed it long docs, entire code files, or big conversations without losing the thread. Practically, this means less chunking, better coherence, and richer outputs.
Grounding
When you force the AI to use specific sources (e.g., Notebook LM). This boosts relevance and reduces hallucinations. Use grounding for anything factual, legal, or brand-sensitive.
Canvas & Dynamic View
Canvas lets Gemini directly interact with layouts and code. Dynamic View turns outputs into lightweight, interactive mini-apps with buttons, sections, and structured views.
Triple Stack
Your personal setup: one tool for Research (Notebook LM), one for Content/Orchestration (Gemini), and one for Automation/Deployment (AI Studio). Master these deeply. "Master two to three tools deeply. Ignore everything else."
Gemini: Your Creative and Orchestration Hub
Think of Gemini as your project manager, copywriter, prototyper, and QA partner,all in one. It's where you quickly test ideas and generate real outputs. Two practical modes to remember: Fast for speed, Pro for depth and accuracy.
Interactive Mini-Apps with Dynamic View
You can ask Gemini to build dynamic, interactive tools from a single prompt. It will create sections, toggles, and calculators without you writing code.
Example #1: Itinerary Planner
"Plan a 10-day trip to Japan with a budget slider, daily schedule sections, and estimated costs by city. Include food, transport, and top attractions. Make sections collapsible."
Example #2: Pricing Calculator
"Create a pricing calculator for a digital marketing agency that collects inputs (industry, budget, goals), suggests a plan, and outputs a proposal summary with estimated ROI."
Website Redesigns with Canvas
Paste your site's HTML/CSS into Gemini and ask for a modernized version with better UX and copy. Canvas lets you refine sections directly.
Example #1: Landing Page Revamp
"Here's my HTML. Redesign the hero section with a bold headline, subhead with social proof, and a sticky CTA. Rewrite the copy to be clearer and more benefits-driven."
Example #2: Accessibility Fix
"Audit this HTML and improve color contrast, font sizes, and ARIA labels. Output an optimized version and explain each change."
Content Strategy & The Hook Bank
Gemini can extract patterns from your top-performing posts and generate dozens of new hooks. You get a repeatable well of ideas.
Example #1: Hook Bank from Winners
"Analyze these 50 titles. Identify patterns, then generate 60 new hooks for short-form videos on the same topic. Add category tags: contrarian, curiosity, how-to."
Example #2: A/B Hook Variations
"Give me 20 micro-variations of this hook with different emotional triggers: urgency, simplicity, status, novelty."
Advanced Image Generation and Editing
Gemini can generate images from text and precisely edit images you upload,even swapping text in thumbnails while preserving style and composition.
Example #1: Thumbnail Text Swap
"Replace the word 'good' with 'insane' on this thumbnail. Keep the font and layout identical. Export three color variants."
Example #2: Style Consistency Pack
"Generate five banner variations in this visual style for a product collection page. Include CTA buttons and space for a headline."
Tips
- Start in Fast mode to iterate quickly, switch to Pro when you lock direction.
- Ask Gemini to self-critique: "Identify 5 weaknesses and fix them."
- Keep prompts structured: goal, constraints, audience, format, examples.
Notebook LM: Grounded Research, Instant Repurposing
Notebook LM turns your sources into a living, searchable assistant that never goes off-script. Upload docs, URLs, transcripts. It answers based on your content and can auto-generate useful assets.
Core Outputs
- Summaries and outlines for long docs.
- Data tables and comparison matrices.
- Slide decks and infographics.
- Audio overviews for passive learning.
- Study guides, quizzes, and even short video summaries.
Example #1: Team Training Bot
Upload your sales SOPs and case studies. Ask: "How do we handle 'we already have an SEO agency'?" Notebook LM replies using your playbook,no guessing, no off-brand answers.
Example #2: Literature Review Sprint
Load 10 research articles. Ask for a unified summary, key themes, gaps in the research, and a slide deck with citations from your sources.
Best Practices
- Chunk large sources by topic for clarity.
- Label sources clearly: "SOP_Objections," "CaseStudies_LocalSEO."
- Use Notebook LM for anything where accuracy matters: policies, legal, pricing rules.
- Generate multiple formats from one source to maximize ROI.
Stitch: From Screenshot or Prompt to Design You Can Ship
Stitch is your AI designer. It converts natural language and screenshots into high-fidelity mockups with engagement insights, then lets you export code or hand off to AI Studio.
What It Does
- Generate modern, mobile-first mockups from prompts or screenshots.
- Offer design variations and predictive engagement heatmaps.
- Export HTML/CSS or send directly to AI Studio to build a functional front end.
Example #1: Redesign an Outdated Site
Upload a screenshot. Prompt: "Redesign this for a wellness brand. Make it calmer, add a testimonial carousel, and optimize for conversions."
Example #2: Build a Mobile App UI
"Design a mobile onboarding flow for a budgeting app with 3 steps: connect bank, set goals, confirm notifications. Include clear progress indicators."
Tips
- Use the heatmap to place CTAs and key content where attention clusters.
- Annotate exactly what you want changed; regenerate variations only when needed.
- Keep copy simple in Stitch; refine language later in Gemini or AI Studio.
AI Studio: Make It Real (Chatbots, Voice Agents, and Embeds)
This is where ideas become deployable products. AI Studio uses the same models but gives you controls for behavior, memory, tools, and embeds. Think of it as your production layer.
Build Custom Chatbots
You can define system behavior, feed knowledge, and publish in a single flow.
Example #1: Logo Concept Generator Bot
"You are a logo concept generator. Ask 7 discovery questions (name, target audience, brand personality, colors, imagery, use cases, competitors). After answers, output a design brief, 5 concept directions, and 3 tagline options."
Example #2: Product Finder Assistant
"You help customers choose the right camping gear. Ask about climate, duration, group size, and experience level, then recommend a bundle with SKU links."
Create Voice Agents
Voice agents can field calls, qualify leads, and answer FAQs. Train them on your content inside AI Studio.
Example #1: SEO Agency Rep
"Create a voice agent that answers service questions, qualifies leads (industry, budget, timeline), and books a discovery call using our calendar link. Use friendly but professional tone." Attach your FAQs and case studies.
Example #2: Appointment Concierge
"You are a dental practice concierge. Confirm insurance, describe services in plain language, and schedule appointments. If out of scope, escalate to a human."
Deployment and Embedding
When your bot or voice agent is ready, AI Studio can deploy it and generate an embed you can drop into your site.
Example #1: Website Embed
Ask Gemini: "Generate an HTML iframe to embed my AI Studio chatbot at 400px width and 600px height, bottom-right sticky." Paste the output into your site.
Example #2: Landing Page Integration
Add the bot on your pricing page with a custom pre-prompt: "Hi, I can help you pick a plan in under 60 seconds." Track conversions after adding.
Tips
- Define guardrails: what the bot should not do; escalation triggers.
- Train on concise, vetted docs to reduce noise.
- Start with a narrow scope, then add skills (pricing, troubleshooting, onboarding).
- Use staged rollouts to gather feedback without risking your brand voice.
Practical Applications You Can Build Today

The Google Gemini AI ecosystem is a connected suite of tools for research, creation, design, coding, and automation. You move ideas from prompt to production without switching platforms. Core tools include the Gemini chat interface (multimodal reasoning and content generation), AI Studio (build and deploy apps, chatbots, and voice agents), NotebookLM (research assistant grounded in your own sources), and Stitch (text- or image-to-UI design). Together, they streamline planning, prototyping, and shipping.
Why it matters:
Integrated workflows cut context switching, speed up iteration, and keep outputs consistent,from sales playbooks to website UIs to customer-facing assistants,so small teams can ship like larger ones.
What are the main tools in this ecosystem and what do they do?
Gemini is your orchestration layer for ideas, content, images, and reasoning. AI Studio turns prompts into working apps, chatbots, and voice agents with deployable endpoints. NotebookLM grounds responses in your PDFs, links, and transcripts to keep answers factual to your sources. Stitch converts descriptions or screenshots into modern, mobile-first UI designs and can export code or hand off to AI Studio to "make it real."
Example:
Upload a screenshot of your pricing page to Stitch → generate a cleaner layout → export to AI Studio → deploy the new front-end → use Gemini to draft pricing copy and NotebookLM to ensure it aligns with your policies.
Are the tools in the Google AI ecosystem free to use?
Yes, many core capabilities are available at no cost, including standard Gemini, AI Studio prototyping, and NotebookLM. Free tiers typically include generous usage for building proofs of concept, small apps, or content workflows. Some advanced features, higher quotas, or enterprise controls may require paid plans.
Practical tip:
Prototype your entire flow on free tiers (research in NotebookLM → design in Stitch → build in AI Studio → content in Gemini). Upgrade only when you hit a usage limit or need enterprise-grade controls.
What are the different Gemini models like "Fast," "Pro," and "Thinking"?
Model choice trades speed for depth. Fast prioritizes low latency and is great for rapid ideation, bulk edits, and conversational tasks. Pro balances speed with quality for most business use cases. Thinking (sometimes labeled Deep Think) provides more deliberate reasoning for complex analysis, multi-step planning, and edge-case evaluation,at the cost of slower responses.
Rule of thumb:
Start with Pro for balanced quality, switch to Fast for volume or live interactions, and use Thinking for critical tasks like financial analysis, legal-style policy mapping, or multi-constraint product planning.
Practical Applications & How-To
How can I build a simple, interactive "mini-app" with Gemini?
In Gemini, describe the tool and the inputs/outputs. For example: "Create a SaaS pricing calculator with plan tiers, usage inputs, and a savings comparison to competitors." Gemini can render an interactive layout (Dynamic View) that accepts user inputs, performs calculations, and shows results. Iterate by asking for features like validation, CSV export instructions, or copy updates.
Example:
A "Client Proposal Generator" that asks for client type, goals, budget range, and timeline, then produces a scoped proposal with milestones and a signature block.
How can I use Gemini to redesign my website?
Paste your page's HTML/CSS into Gemini and ask for a modern, mobile-first redesign. Specify goals (clear pricing, stronger social proof, simplified hero), tone (credible, direct), and constraints (keep brand colors, retain SEO text). Request a clean semantic structure, accessible contrast, and readable typography. You can also ask Gemini to produce variant versions for A/B testing.
Pro move:
Feed a brief ("primary CTA: book demo," "avoid carousels," "show 3 customer logos above the fold") and have Gemini generate updated code plus alt text, meta descriptions, and schema suggestions.
What is Google Stitch and how does it create website designs?
Stitch converts plain-text briefs or screenshots into UI mockups. Describe the page (content blocks, CTAs, forms, testimonials), and it drafts a clean layout you can tweak. Upload an old page screenshot to request a modern refresh. You can annotate sections, generate variations, and view predictive attention to prioritize key elements.
Use case:
"Redesign this landing page to increase demo requests: add a compact hero with social proof, a sticky CTA, and a three-step explainer. Keep brand colors and simplify the footer."
How do I turn a design from Stitch into a functional website?
After you're happy in Stitch, send it to AI Studio using "Make it real" or export for AI Studio. AI Studio translates the design into front-end code and a runnable project. From there, you can add forms, analytics, and embed a chatbot. Request Gemini to review code for accessibility and performance improvements before deployment.
Example:
Ship a marketing site in a day: Stitch for layout → AI Studio to code → Gemini for copy and image variations → deploy → iterate with user feedback.
How do I create and edit images with Gemini?
Generate from text ("photoreal product mockup on a white background"). Edit by uploading an image and giving precise instructions ("replace headline text with 'Free Strategy Call,' keep font weight and color"). Use constraints like dimensions, background, and style to keep outputs on brand. Produce A/B variants by changing color schemes, cropping, or overlay text.
Tip:
Bundle the prompt with a short brand guide (colors, fonts, tone) and a reference image to improve consistency across thumbnails, ads, and social posts.
What is NotebookLM and how can I train it on my own data?
NotebookLM creates a private knowledge space grounded in your sources. Add PDFs, pasted text, URLs, and video transcripts. It answers using only those materials, keeping responses aligned to your content. This is ideal for SOPs, sales enablement, product docs, and research libraries. Organize by project or team to keep context tight.
Example:
Upload your sales playbook, case studies, and onboarding docs. Ask, "What's our standard response to 'your price is too high'?" NotebookLM cites where it found the answer.
What kind of content can NotebookLM automatically generate?
NotebookLM can transform your sources into summaries, outlines, slide decks, data tables, checklists, quizzes, and visual assets like infographics. It can also produce audio overviews or short video-style summaries for fast learning. Each asset is grounded in your inputs, making it ideal for training, compliance, or internal comms.
Workflow:
Upload a market report → create a 10-slide summary → generate a quiz for your team → export a one-page infographic for clients.
How do I build a custom AI chatbot in AI Studio?
Create a new app in AI Studio and write a clear system instruction: role, goal, inputs, outputs, style, and safety constraints. Add grounded data (FAQ pages, docs, SOPs) so the bot answers with context. Test edge cases, define fallback behavior, and specify what to do when it's unsure (ask clarifying questions or escalate). Then deploy and embed it on your site.
Example:
"You are a B2B onboarding assistant. Collect use case, team size, timeline, and tools. Provide a setup checklist, recommended integrations, and a 14-day success plan."
Can I build a voice agent that can handle customer service calls?
Yes. In AI Studio, create a voice app with call flows, intents, and a personality guideline. Ground it with your knowledge base (FAQ, policies, troubleshooting steps), set escalation rules, and test with real scenarios. Include verification steps for sensitive actions and log summaries to your CRM.
Example:
For an SEO agency, the agent qualifies leads, gathers the site URL and goals, checks if they have Analytics, and books calls on your calendar via an integration.
How do I embed a chatbot or voice agent from AI Studio onto my website?
Deploy your AI Studio app, copy the public URL, and ask Gemini to generate embed code as an iframe or floating chat bubble. Paste the snippet into your site's HTML (WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace). Test on mobile, verify cross-domain settings, and ensure cookies and analytics events are configured.
Tip:
Add a concise starter prompt in the widget ("Ask me anything about pricing, features, or migration") and a clear privacy link.
How does Gemini compare to other AI models like ChatGPT?
Gemini stands out for native multimodality, tight integration across tools (AI Studio, NotebookLM, Stitch), and strong image editing. It also supports large context windows for long documents, enabling deeper analysis in one go. Other models may have strengths in specific coding tasks or plugin ecosystems, so evaluate by use case.
Decision tip:
For end-to-end build-and-ship inside one stack, Gemini's ecosystem is efficient. For niche features you rely on elsewhere, compare outputs on your own data and workflows.
Advanced Concepts & Best Practices
Do I need to be a developer to use these tools?
No. You can ship real outcomes with clear prompts and structured instructions. For advanced integrations, basic familiarity with APIs or Google Apps Script helps, but it's optional for many use cases. Think in terms of roles, steps, inputs, outputs, and constraints,then let the tools implement.
Mindset:
Describe the result you want, provide examples, and iterate. Non-developers can build lead gen tools, onboarding assistants, calculators, and training assets in days.
