Build Hybrid AI Apps with Firebase AI Logic (Live Workshop)

​See how one app runs AI on-device and in the cloud with a single SDK.

​In this live session for #BuildHybridAI 2026, the Firebase team walks through Friendly Meals, a hybrid recipe app built with Firebase AI Logic for web, iOS and Android. It suggests quick meals offline, right on your device, with no lag. When you need ingredients, it switches to the cloud and uses the Live API and Google Maps grounding to show which nearby grocery stores have them in stock.

​What we’ll cover

• ​How hybrid inference works in Firebase AI Logic, and when to use on-device vs. cloud

• ​A beginner setup and one intermediate implementation

• ​What the judges are looking for: real use cases, not demo-ware

• ​Live Q&A with the Firebase team

​Who it’s for: Beginner to intermediate. Familiarity with Firebase products helps.
