Google Cloud 发布面向企业工作的通用智能体 Gemini agent

Apps & Updates; Gemini; Google Workspace

At Gemini at Work 2026, Google Cloud today announced the “Gemini agent” for enterprise customers.

Gemini agent is a “new single, universal agent for work” available in the Gemini Enterprise app, Workspace, and third-party services. Google says you can “give it objectives, not instructions.” It can answer questions, handle knowledge work, create media, and write/run code.

“For example, if your manager emails you asking for the latest project update as a slide deck, Workspace Intelligence recognizes that as a delegatable task and gives you a single-click option to pass it to Gemini.”; …you can ask Gemini to set up a meeting with the usual team of regional event leads next week, without supplying a single name or email address. Gemini determines who those people are from the membership of your chat space and the thread from your last event, checks their calendars, and starts an email thread to coordinate a time that works, even with external participants

Besides functioning as a personal assistant, the Gemini agent can serve as a “team member, where it works on behalf of a group of people, like a project manager within a team, or on behalf of a specific role in an organization, like an analyst in your finance department.”

Under-the-hood, the Gemini agent “runs each job on the model that fits best.” This includes both the Gemini and Claude families of models today with support for other private and open models in the future.

If this Gemini agent isn't going to be bound to using Gemini Models, at some point it makes sense to ask why it's still called Gemini at all.

All it does is muddy the waters of what Gemini for Consumers can and can't do.

Maybe they should've kept the Google Assistant brand around like they were originally going to do before changing their mind.

Under-the-hood, the Gemini agent “runs each job on the model that fits best.” This includes both the Gemini and Claude families of models today with support for other private and open models in the future. This is meant to “deliver optimal quality and lower your costs.” It uses sub-agents to “tackle multi-step tasks” and connects with various third-party tools.

Gemini can communicate with these sub-agents to coordinate workflows, including parallel and sequential steps that can run for hours or days.

The agent runs in the cloud for a “single set of memories, context, and one personalization graph.” There are four kinds of memory:

Session memory: “for the task in front of it, even when it runs for days”; Semantic memory: “a structured knowledge base it builds as it reads documents, talks to people, and works with other agents”; Procedural memory: “for how a job gets done, including skills it writes for itself:; Episodic memory: “everything it has done before”

In Gmail, Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Chat, you can mention @Gemini to invoke. The Gemini agent is available from any device and channel, with command line, Google Workspace, Slack, and Microsoft 365 given as examples. An API allows it to be integrated into third-party applications to surface and operate as a “headless agent, meaning it does not need a dedicated user interface.”

The Gemini agent will see wide availability soon for Workspace customers with select Business and Enterprise plans. It’s currently in private preview.
