Opera Integrates Google Gemini AI Across Opera One, GX, and Neon Browsers

Opera is rolling out a major round of AI upgrades to its browsers, bringing Google's latest Gemini models into Opera One, Opera GX, and Opera Neon. With the update, more than 80 million people now get access to Opera's newest AI tools without needing an extra app or subscription.

The biggest change is a new side panel where users can interact with Opera's AI while browsing. It can look at whatever is on screen — a single page, a group of tabs, or even a video — and respond with summaries, quick research, comparisons, or follow-up questions. It also supports voice input and output, plus file analysis for images, videos, and other common formats.

Opera rebuilt the engine behind all of this, pulling in an agentic architecture originally used in Opera Neon. The company says the result is roughly 20 percent faster responses. Privacy controls are included as well, letting users decide how much of their browsing context the AI can see.


This move isn't happening in isolation. OpenAI recently launched ChatGPT Atlas on the Mac — a browser that leans heavily on AI to read pages and automate tasks. And Apple, according to reports, has explored using Google's Gemini to power new search features in Siri. Browsers are starting to become the place where AI features make the most sense, largely because they already sit at the center of how people move around the web.

Opera says Neon users will get the most advanced setup, including access to the Gemini 3 Pro model. Neon has been Opera's testing ground for AI features, so that distinction tracks with how the company has been developing its tools. The update also brings expanded privacy settings so users can control what information the AI is allowed to use when generating answers.

You can download the latest versions of the browsers from the Opera website.
