Opera has rolled out major AI upgrades across Opera One, Opera GX, and Opera Neon, integrating Google’s latest Gemini models through its expanded partnership with Google—delivering a free, context-aware, agentic browser AI to over 80 million users worldwide.

Quick Intel

  • Gemini-powered AI side panel in Opera One, GX, and Neon (Gemini 3 Pro in Neon)
  • Understands open tabs, page content, and videos for contextual answers & summaries
  • Voice input/output + file analysis (images, videos, PDFs)
  • Rebuilt agentic engine → 20% faster responses
  • Full user control over shared context for maximum privacy
  • Drives 17% YoY growth in query revenue from AI-powered engagement

The Browser Becomes the Smartest AI Frontend

Unlike standalone chatbots, Opera AI lives inside the browser with real-time access to your tabs and browsing flow—enabling deeper research, cross-tab comparisons, video summaries, and task completion without ever leaving the page.

Per Wetterdal, EVP Commercial at Opera: “AI is reshaping how people interact with the web, and the browser is the natural entry point for those experiences. Through our partnership with Google, we are able to offer users the experiences they really want—for free, directly in their Opera browsers.”

Per Gustafsson, Managing Director Nordics at Google: “By integrating the latest Gemini models, Opera is not just enhancing its browsers, but setting a new standard for AI-powered user experiences. We are proud to provide the cutting-edge AI capabilities that help partners like Opera thrive.”

Monetizing the AI-Powered Web

Opera’s Q3 earnings showed 17% annual growth in query revenue, fueled by rising usage of AI features beyond traditional search. The new Opera AI natively supports richer query processing, product discovery, and seamless e-commerce connections—turning browsing into a high-engagement, high-value experience.

As Google’s AI Overviews and emerging AI modes drive deeper exploration, Opera’s independent position lets it blend Gemini with any other AI platform users prefer.
