Hi everyone, welcome. We are super excited. Today we're going to be doing an AMA with the creator of Vzero Mobile Fernando who is here um to
join me. Before we get into that, just a quick couple of reminders. If you'd like to ask a question during this stream, which is an AMA, so hopefully you do, please make sure you're on the Verscell community page for this event. You click going um and you're logged in and you should be able to access the chat, which is where we'll be pulling questions from for this stream. Um but without further ado, let's jump into it. So, Fernando, do you want to introduce yourself? Yeah, sure. So, uh my name is Fernando Rojo. I'm the head of mobile here and
over the last few months we have been working on the iOS app for Vzero. So I'm really excited to get to show a little bit about the product, answer some questions that people might have about what we're working on and what's coming next and a bit of the reasoning that went behind why we made this. Uh the big thinking from the start was that a lot of the ideas we have, a lot of the work we do isn't confined to this just general 9 to5 time period that that most people have. It's you have an idea when you're on a walk or some of the more
vulgar places people say they use their phone and have ideas and we want to give you an opportunity in any of those moments to really do your best work. And your notes app is in my mind the best place to have a lot of those ideas. And so Vzero is kind of like the next evolution of that on your phone. A notes app that kind of builds your ideas in the background. I love that. Yeah. I've been saying people can vibe code on the toilet, which I think is what you're hinting for, but it's okay. I'll say it out loud. Um, amazing. Cool. Well, that was
going to be my first question for you was why we uh built the VZero iOS app, but um maybe we can kickstart things then with just showing people who haven't downloaded it yet how it works and doing a demo. Yeah, no problem. I'll go ahead and share my screen. Okay, so here I'm going to show you a bit of a sped up demo. Um, and the first thing I'm going to be doing is building an AI image generator using Nano Banana. For those who don't know, this is the most epic image model that we have right now. Um, and I actually want to test out this new model. Let's say Nano Banana
just came out and I have an idea where I want to make a website where you can enter a prompt and it'll turn whatever you say into a cowboy. Um, that's just what it's doing here. And you can see that it's like it's actually searching examples and docs for the AI SDK, which is our open source library for this. I can even see that it maint gives has a little live activity there. So, I'll show you this part really quick. Um, this is a pre-recorded demo I made right before this. And here, this is what's really cool on the fly. It actually keeps you up to date with the changes.
So, while it's working, I'm going to go ahead and actually just look at a different project. I can just play around, leave that uh generation in the background, and then I think like, all right, I I'll go back uh to another project. I can just keep playing with a bunch of different ones here. And um one little feature I want to show you for anyone here who's used the VZero app already. Uh you might not know that the bottom panel here is a bit different. We're experimenting with a Safari style bottom panel which actually floats on top of your current generation. Um so as
your website starts finishing up, you can actually go back here. You can preview it. And so this is, you know, the the output of the site. And the next thing I want to do is actually just publish it. So here I can see the chat uh settings, the privacy. I'm going to go ahead and just share it with everyone on my team. Um so now anyone at the Verscell team can edit it and then I'll go ahead and publish it. And so if for anyone who's used Versel before, this is doing a true Verscell deployment. And so in the meantime, you know, I I'm I'm feeling pretty ambitious. I'm going to make two apps in like 1 minute. And then
