AI coding tools have become good at generating code, fixing errors and explaining what is happening inside a codebase. But Google wants its AI to take on a larger role in the development process. That is where Antigravity comes in. Antigravity is Google’s agentic development platform, designed to allow AI agents handle multi-step coding and knowledge-work tasks. The agents can use tools, work with files, search the web, delegate parts of a task to other agents, and continue working without needing constant instructions from a developer. Google introduced Antigravity in November 2025 as an AI-powered development environment. Since then, the company has expanded it into a broader platform that includes Antigravity 2.0, the Antigravity IDE, CLI and SDK. The idea is simple: instead of using AI only to help with individual pieces of code, developers can give agents larger tasks and then supervise the work they produce. This article explains what Antigravity is, how it works, and why it matters as software development becomes increasingly agentic What is Google Antigravity? Google Antigravity is an agentic development platform that allows users to work with AI agents on coding and other knowledge-work tasks. The easiest way to understand the difference is to compare Antigravity with a traditional coding assistant. A coding assistant might suggest code, explain an error or generate a function when you ask for one. An agentic platform works at a higher level. You can give an agent a broader objective and allow it to plan, use tools, execute commands and work through multiple steps. Google describes Antigravity as a platform built for the agent-first era. Its agents can perform tasks such as reading and writing files, executing system commands, conducting web searches, interacting with Chrome and creating artifacts and implementation plans. The platform now has several different surfaces: Antigravity 2.0: A standalone desktop command centre for launching, monitoring and orchestrating agents. Antigravity CLI: A terminal-based interface for working with Antigravity agents. Antigravity SDK: A Python framework for building custom agentic applications on top of Google’s Antigravity runtime. Antigravity IDE: A full agentic development environment designed for working directly with code. How does Google Antigravity work? 1. You give an agent a goal The biggest difference with Antigravity is the level at which you interact with the AI. Instead of asking an agent to write one function, you can give it a broader task and allow it to determine the steps required to complete it. Antigravity agents can use tools to execute commands, read and write files, search the web, interact with Chrome and work with external services through skills and MCP servers. This changes the relationship between the developer and the AI. The developer does not necessarily have to specify every individual step. They can describe the desired outcome and let the agent work through the task. 2. Agents can delegate work to other agents Antigravity 2.0 supports dynamic subagents, which allow a main agent to create specialised agents for particular parts of a task. These subagents can work in parallel, with workspace isolation helping keep their work separate. Google says this can allow larger tasks to be divided into smaller pieces while preventing multiple workstreams from unnecessarily filling the main agent’s context. In practical terms, instead of one agent doing everything sequentially, it can delegate focused pieces of work to other agents. 3. Agents can work asynchronously Antigravity also supports asynchronous task management. Long-running operations can be moved into background processes so they do not block the agent’s active work. Subagents can also run as background tasks while their progress is streamed back to the main agent. 4. You can schedule agents to work automatically Antigravity 2.0 also includes Scheduled Tasks. Users can set recurring schedules that automatically invoke agents to perform predefined tasks. Google gives examples including daily pull-request digests, hourly checks on live deployments and monthly reports on system architecture changes. This takes Antigravity beyond an AI tool that you manually prompt every time. Once a schedule has been configured, the agent can be triggered automatically according to that schedule. What are Antigravity Artifacts? One of the more important parts of Antigravity is Artifacts. Artifacts are outputs that agents create to communicate their work and progress to the user. They can include things such as implementation plans, rich documents, diagrams, images, browser recordings, and other forms of evidence about what the agent has done. This matters because handing more work to an AI agent creates another problem: how do you know what it actually did? Artifacts give users something to inspect rather than forcing them to rely solely on a final answer. Google has built Antigravity around this idea of communicating progress and results through artifacts, with users able to review the work and provide feedback directly. What models power Antigravity? Antigravity is closely integrated with Google’s Gemini models. Google’s current Antigravity platform highlights Gemini 3.7 Flash, introduced in August 2026 as the platform’s workhorse model for coding and agentic tasks. Google says the model shows notable gains over its predecessor, Gemini 3.6 Flash, on coding benchmarks, along with introductory pricing at roughly half the cost per token. Antigravity is not simply a model, though. The model provides the underlying intelligence, while the Antigravity agent harness provides the environment, tools, permissions, and other capabilities that allow an agent to carry out multi-step work. That distinction is important. Antigravity is a platform for deploying and managing agents, rather than simply another chatbot powered by Gemini. Why does Antigravity matter? The bigger change is the move from AI that helps developers write code to AI agents that can take on larger pieces of work. Traditional software development requires developers to decide what needs to be done, write or modify code, run tests, investigate problems, and repeat the process. Agentic development changes that balance. A developer can increasingly describe an outcome and allow an agent to handle more of the execution. The developer then becomes responsible for directing the work, reviewing the results and making the decisions that

Nigeria’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has admitted three additional virtual asset service providers and digital investment platforms into its Accelerated Regulatory Incubation Programme (ARIP), expanding the regulatory sandbox to 12 firms since July. On Thursday, the SEC said it had admitted Pisi Payment Solutions, the parent company of Nigerian fintech YDPay, BC Access (Nigeria) Limited, the legal entity of Blockchain Africa—a subsidiary of global cryptocurrency exchange Blockchain—and Yellow Card, the stablecoin infrastructure startup, into the programme. The approvals grant the firms Approval-in-Principle (AIP) status, allowing them to operate within the sandbox’s defined scope while remaining subject to ongoing regulatory and supervisory conditions. In July, the regulator admitted nine firms into the sandbox, including investment platform GetEquity and cryptocurrency exchanges KuCoin Nigeria and Luno. “This development means that these entities would receive the Commission’s Approval-in-Principle (AIP), permitting them to operate within the defined scope of the Programme and subject to conditions stipulated by the Commission,” the regulator said in a statement. “An Approval-in-Principle confirms that an entity has satisfied the Commission’s requirements for admission into the Programme.” The move underscores the SEC’s renewed push to bring crypto-related businesses under a formal regulatory framework following a slowdown in new admissions in 2025. The capital markets regulator is now accelerating the onboarding of digital asset startups into its sandbox as it seeks to balance innovation with investor protection. Launched in June 2024, ARIP is a controlled testing sandbox for virtual asset providers, tokenised product platforms, and other digital investment businesses. The SEC uses the programme to evaluate new technologies and business models before they are allowed to offer products to the wider investing public. The SEC first granted admissions and approvals-in-principle to Nigerian cryptocurrency startups Busha and Quidax in August 2024. Those approvals were expected to lead to full licences after a one-year incubation period. However, the regulator has yet to confirm whether either firm has completed that transition, leaving no clear precedent for how sandbox participants become fully regulated crypto operators in Nigeria. The expansion comes as Nigeria continues to rank among Africa’s largest cryptocurrency markets by adoption, despite years of regulatory uncertainty and periodic restrictions on parts of the sector. Regulators are increasingly shifting from outright caution toward a framework centered on licensing, supervision, and consumer safeguards. “Nigeria is one of Africa’s most important digital asset markets, and participating in the SEC’s ARIP is an important step forward in our long-term commitment to the country,” Owen Odia, general manager for Africa at Blockchain, told TechCabal. “The programme [allows] us to work directly with the SEC in a controlled environment, bring our global experience to the Nigerian market, and help support a framework that protects consumers while enabling responsible innovation.” The SEC noted that ARIP admission does not constitute a final operating licence. The regulator has also imposed minimum capital and corporate governance requirements on digital asset companies, with exchanges and custodians required to maintain capital of up to ₦2 billion ($1.5 million). The latest admissions underscore that Nigeria is moving more decisively toward a supervised digital asset regime, now built around the country’s Virtual Asset Council—along with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) as vice chairs—potentially providing greater clarity for startups, investors, and foreign cryptocurrency firms seeking access to one of Africa’s largest digital asset markets. True scale demands moving beyond surface-level integrations to robust execution.

Adekoyejo Kuye has the unhurried air of a man with nowhere else to be. He is the sort of person you can listen to for hours without noticing you have been sitting at the same table. We meet on July 28 at Somerset Westview in Kilimani, Nairobi. Kuye is in town for Halcyon’s Africa Food & Climate Resilience programme, where his company is part of the 2026 cohort. He sits easily, speaks without hurry, and rarely seems to search for a thought. Kuye is the founder of KAMIM Technologies, a Nigerian climate-tech company that builds solar-powered cold storage infrastructure and connects farmers to markets. It is not the company Kuye imagined himself building. In fact, he never imagined building a company at all. The son of a chemical engineering professor and a nurse, Kuye grew up taking toys apart to understand how they worked and expected to become a mechanical engineer working on cars. During his national youth service, he was posted to a rural community in Enugu State, Southeastern Nigeria, where he also worked unpaid for a solar company, carrying panels and batteries into communities, and began to understand the everyday problems farmers faced. He later left for Germany for a master’s in renewable energy, financing his studies with factory jobs and night shifts at Amazon. When he finished, staying offered the safer, more obvious path. Friends and family urged him to take it. Instead, Kuye bought a one-way ticket to Nigeria without telling anyone. “Are they using juju to pull you home?” he recalls someone asking. This interview has been edited for length and clarity. Nigeria loses enormous amounts of food before it ever reaches consumers. Was there a single moment when you realised the country’s biggest agricultural problem wasn’t production, but preservation? I have an engineering background and started my career at a solar company. We built mini-grids in rural communities, mainly powering healthcare centres, schools and other infrastructure. It was going into those communities that I began to see the problem. A lot of the people were farmers. We would install mini-grids there, but over time, we noticed that many could not afford to pay for solar home systems because what we were providing did not necessarily have productive value for their livelihoods. That got me thinking: how can we build something that actually improves what these farmers are already doing? I started asking them questions. They told me, “This is what we’re facing. Once we harvest, we have to quickly take everything to the market and sell it because there is no infrastructure to preserve it.” I wasn’t fully aware of the scale of the problem initially. But after those conversations, I started doing my own research. Cold storage at the farm gate was almost non-existent. You see cold rooms in urban areas, supermarkets, and large farms, but they weren’t common near smallholder farmers. Yet we produce a lot of perishables in Nigeria—vegetables, tomatoes, and other produce that are very sensitive to heat. There is something called pre-cooling. Once you harvest, rapidly removing the heat from the produce can significantly extend its shelf life. That basic infrastructure simply wasn’t there. That was when I realised there was a major gap. Kuye speaking at a past Halcyon function. Image source: KAMIM You trained as an engineer. At what point did engineering stop being a profession and become a way of thinking about society? I love being on the field. We go into a community, deploy a system, and leave. I just love the process of building stuff. I had no plan to run a business. I’m not a natural businessman who always knew, “Ah, I’m going to become an entrepreneur.” Everything I know about business, I learned on the job out of necessity. But when we started working on cold storage, I knew we had stumbled on something big. We were solving a real problem affecting people’s lives. Farmers would tell us, “This is the business I use to feed my family. This is what my wife does.” It became more than building cold rooms. Then we discovered another problem: affordability. Smallholder farmers cannot afford to buy cold rooms. So you start asking, “How do you finance them?” How do you create a business model that makes the infrastructure sustainable? Many people avoid this space because it is difficult. Traditional financing institutions ask: How will the farmer pay? Can they pay back? But we said, “We’re already in this thing. We need to find a way to make it work.” I’ve been working on agricultural cold-chain infrastructure full-time since 2019, collaborating with farmers, impact investors, and people in the climate space to develop various models. One experience I’ll never forget was deploying our first solution. When we initially visited the community, farmers told us that after harvesting tomatoes, they put them under a tree or found somewhere cool. That was their storage system. They only knew cold rooms for fish and meat. The idea of storing tomatoes in one place was completely new. So we did an experiment. We kept some tomatoes outside and put others inside the cold room. After 21 days, we showed them the difference. You needed to see their faces. That was when I knew: okay, we are doing something important. Growing up, what was the dinner table like? Were conversations about politics, business, faith, or simply getting through the week? I grew up in an engineering home. My father is a professor of chemical engineering. My mother was a nurse. My sister also studied engineering. It was a very academic home: do your work, do what you’re supposed to do. Like most African homes, ours was religious. You went for Bible study during the week, and church on Sunday. That was always part of our lives. But academics were a big thing. From a young age, I knew I wanted to do engineering. I had toys, and the first thing I would do was scatter them. I wanted to open
