The idea is that you connect your favorite apps to Nimo Infinity (the browser is based on Chromium), and rather than interacting with your apps in a traditional way, you can use the AI assistant to pull information from your app and have it generate a “Dynamic App” with a custom interface you can tailor to your taste.
For example, you can ask it to “Create a beautiful daily meeting prep app, ” and it can merge your Google Calendar and Gmail data into a unique interface that blends your schedule with relevant emails so you can get prepared before hopping on Zoom.
There are templates to get you started, but you can also play around with the assistant (largely powered by Anthropic's Claude) to craft anything from your connected apps—say, a financial dashboard app with data from Google Sheets. And if you're on a Google Sheet, you can chat with the assistant to have it make changes to the document without fussing with the cells.
I tried to give it a spin, but unfortunately, my “Dynamic App” was stuck trying to create the app for more than 30 minutes. It's a beta! There's a bit of a learning curve in figuring out how the entire canvas system works too.
Right now, you can sign up for early access, and Nimo founder Rohildev Nattukallingal tells me that while Nimo Infinity is free with a limited feature set, you can pay $20 per month to access many of the core features, like Dynamic Apps. Add Nimo to the growing list of companies trying to kill apps in favor of an AI-generated interface.

Aura, maker of digital photo frames, announced the Aura Ink ($499)—a wireless photo frame that runs on a battery. Unlike the rest of its lineup, which uses LCD screens, the Aura Ink has an e-paper display, like the kind on an e-reader or digital notebook. It’s powered by E Ink's Spectra 6 tech, which allows pixels to be one of six colors; Aura says it has an algorithm to translate photos into a newspaper-like print style to make it look vibrant and colorful with the limited color range.
