How to Talk to Multiple Gemini Gems at Once

Gemlet's Split Panels let you run up to 4 Gemini chats side-by-side in a single window on Mac. Google Gemini does not support multi-panel views — you would need to open separate browser tabs and manually tile them. Gemlet provides built-in split panels with resizable dividers, independent navigation, and saveable layouts.

Why Split Panels Matter for Gemini Power Users

As one user asked on r/GoogleGeminiAI: "Is there a way to talk to multiple Gems in a single session?" The answer from Google is no — Gemini only supports one active Gem per browser tab. Browser-based workarounds (opening 2 tabs, manually resizing windows) break every time you switch applications and waste an average of 5–10 seconds per context switch.

Gemlet solves this at the application level with native macOS split panels that persist across sessions.

Side-by-Side Chats

Compare answers from up to 4 different Gems simultaneously. Each panel navigates independently — no tab switching required.

Resizable Dividers

Drag the divider to allocate more space to whichever chat needs it. Gemlet remembers your layout between sessions.

3 Common Use Cases for Split Panels

  • Coding + Research: Run a "Coding Expert" Gem in one panel and standard Gemini in the other. Ask implementation questions on the left while researching documentation on the right.
  • Output Comparison: Send the same prompt to 2 different Gems and compare responses side-by-side. Useful for evaluating prompt variations or testing different personas.
  • Reference + Discussion: Keep a long conversation thread open in one panel as a reference while starting a new focused discussion in the other.

How to Use Split Panels in 4 Steps

  1. Open Gemlet on your Mac.
  2. Press Cmd+K to open the Command Palette and select "New Split Panel."
  3. Choose the chat or Gem to load in the new panel.
  4. Navigate both panels independently in the same window.

Pro Tip: Save your panel layout as a Workspace to restore your exact side-by-side setup later. Combine with bookmarks to pin your most-used chats into each panel.
