📄🤖 Tesseract - submission for Google AI Studio

This post is my submission for DEV Education Track: Build Apps with Google AI Studio.

What I Built

The project was driven by two main goals:

1. Expanding the pool of possible extraction items, leveraging the platform’s flexibility to process and generate more diverse results.
2. Rebranding the project, aligning its visual identity and communication style with the new product vision.

To achieve this, I explored custom prompts and integrations that refined the extraction logic while keeping it adaptable for different scenarios and formats.

My Experience

My experience with Google AI Studio was overall very positive. I see it as a platform with huge potential to revolutionize many aspects of development, especially in terms of speeding up prototyping and enriching applications with intelligent features.

That said, I believe there’s still room for improvement, particularly in handling more technical and constrained scenarios. At times, the platform can “get lost” when a key parameter is missing, follow a very different path than intended, or even ignore explicit instructions.

For example, I once requested a color palette generation, providing the exact primary color as a parameter. Yet, in the light theme, it still set the primary color to blue — something completely outside of what was specified.

Despite these points, I still believe in the platform’s potential and I’m excited to see how it evolves, especially if it strengthens consistency and adherence to instructions in more complex technical contexts.
