Tabletop provides customizable, collaborative spaces for all your personal planning needs.

Google has cooked up a new experimental AI tool called Tabletop that generates customized collaborative hubs to help you coordinate with family, and friends. The Tabletop platform shares some visual similarities with workplace management apps like Asana and Monday, but with a built-in AI feature that allows you to vibecode personalized interactive tools by describing them, such as savings trackers, chore charts, event plans, and more.

“Just add in your links, files and ideas, then prompt @tabletop — or pick a starter template — to generate custom interactive trip itineraries, dinner polls, expense splitters and tournament brackets,” Google Labs design and engineering lead Roman Nurik said in the blog post. “Once your space is ready, drop the invite link in your group chat to let everyone jump in and use it at the same time like a Google Doc.”

Access to the Tabletop beta is rolling out via a waitlist , and currently limited to people over the age of 18 in the US. Some of the example use cases that Nurik provides in his video above would clearly require giving kids or teens access to Tabletop, however, and using this for personal family planning looks like a compelling alternative to stuffy workplace software, so that age requirement might only be in place while Tabletop is in public testing.
