Google launches enterprise 'universal' Gemini agent in private preview
Google introduced a cloud-based Gemini agent inside the Gemini Enterprise app that can accept tasks from a single interface and operate across devices, Workspace apps (Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Calendar), the web, and third-party apps such as Slack or Microsoft 365. The agent, currently available to enterprise customers in private preview, can spawn job-specific sub-agents, act as a ‘coworker agent’ with its own @agents.company.com identity, and automatically choose an appropriate AI model for each task.
