Antigravity + Claude 5.5 is INSANE!

Anti-gravity just got a massive upgrade. Claude Opus and Sonnet 5.5 are now inside it, and the stuff it builds now, way nicer than before. Today, I'm going to show you something surprising. I actually ran the exact same prompt in Anti-Gravity versus Claude Desktop side by side, and the winner shocked me. The fonts, the design, the style. I'll show you which one of them actually came out on top, and who wins later in this video. Also show you a hidden trick most people miss with Anti-Gravity and what to do when you run out of issues on Claude so you can keep building all day without stopping. Plus, I'll show you how to set up tasks that run in the background whilst you do other things like having a little Anti-Gravity helper working for you around the clock. By then in this video, you'll know exactly which tool built the better websites and how to create beautiful designs with just one simple prompt. Let's get into it. So we're going to test our Anti-Gravity with Claude 5.5. Anti-Gravity is now inside Claude 5.5, and Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5 are inside there. Now, this is available for Google AI Pro users, as you can see right here. And what you can do now is if you get the latest version of Anti-Gravity, as you can see, you can basically switch over here to Claude, Sonnet 5.5 or Opus 5.5, which are much more superior models to what we had previously inside Anti-Gravity. Right. So if we go to Claude, Sonnet 5.5 over here, and then we can put it on Medium, which is the recommended standard for Vibe coding with Anti-Gravity. We can then plug in our prompt. So let's try something out now. Can you build out a new website for the AI Profit boardroom.com? Make sure it looks beautiful, interesting, modern, elegant. We'll see how that goes. Now, also, you can run different projects here. So if you never used Anti-Gravity before, you have the conversation section and then you have the project section over here and you can switch between them. And you also see a status button, so you can switch between canceling or not canceling the action. And then additionally, inside this, you can switch the model at any point as well. Again, like Opus 5.5, probably the best model to use on this. So I would actually recommend Opus 5.5 over Sonnet. But both are pretty good for design. This is also good as well because, for example, if you run out of tokens on your Claude plan, but you don't want to get another Claude account, then you could just run it inside Anti-Gravity as well, which is something nobody talks about. Because some people will be saying like, why would you use something like Anti-Gravity with Sonnet instead of Claude? This is one of the reasons. Now also inside here, we have an option for schedule tasks, which is pretty useful. So we can schedule tasks in OpenClaude or Hermes Agent, but it's running with Anti-Gravity. And then you can plug in the prompt, the schedule, the project that's working on, the name, etc.
And this is running in the background here as well, as you can see. Also, we can click on Always Allow, hit Submit. Now to be fair, that was crazy fast to respond, like way faster than Claude. If we actually have a look at the outputs here, I'd be interested to see what you actually get back from Claude versus Anti-Gravity with Sonnet 5.5 side by side. You see it's also switched back, even though we switched to Opus, it switched back to Sonnet 5.5 on the response here. So I'm just going to say, can you make this more interesting plus better design, et cetera?
And then additionally, once we're doing that, we'll go over to Claude, we'll start a new chat here, and then we'll plug in the same sort of prompt and just see which one can build better, right? Is it Opus 5.5 inside Claude Desktop or Opus 5.5 inside Anti-Gravity, which is pretty useful to know. Now that was just inside the project section. What we could also do is just create a new project here. Sorry, this was inside the conversation section, and then we can switch over to projects here. We can start a new project like we just have to open up a new folder, which we'll do inside the docs.
Open up, and then from here, we can use Opus 5.5 and we can say something like, okay, create a beautiful mission control dashboard for Anti-Gravity, so that I can control it inside a beautiful mission control, and then we can start using that. Now you can also see the Opus 5.5 quite a bit slower than Sonic 5.5.
