Google is launching a new Gemini AI agent aimed at bringing work-related tasks into one conversational interface. The company announced the tool during its Gemini at Work event on Thursday.
The agent will be available through the Gemini Enterprise app, where users can chat with Gemini and delegate tasks without moving between separate tools. Google describes the system as a "universal" agent designed to operate across apps and devices.
A central feature is its ability to work in the background, potentially allowing users to assign a task and continue with other work while the agent handles activity across connected software.
The announcement points to Google's broader effort to make Gemini a workplace layer rather than only a standalone chatbot. For organisations assessing AI deployment, the value will depend on how reliably the agent manages cross-application work and fits into existing enterprise processes. Details of the launch were reported by The Verge.
