Google has made a work agent available in the Gemini Enterprise app in private preview

confirmed by 2 independent sources updated 2 h ago

Google has made a work agent available to enterprise customers in the Gemini Enterprise app in private preview. According to the company, it can plan tasks, work across connected systems and act under its own identity with an audit trail.

Google announced a unified work agent available to enterprise customers in private preview through the Gemini Enterprise app. Users can assign tasks to it from a single interface. The company is initially targeting enterprises and plans to expand to general consumers later.

According to Google, the agent can plan work around a specified goal, use tools and collaborate with specialized agents. The announced integrations include, for example, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Jira, corporate data systems and servers using Model Context Protocol (MCP). According to the company, running the agent in the cloud preserves shared context across connected devices. The “tasks inbox” interface is intended to let users track work progress and the handoff of subtasks to other agents.

According to Google, the agent has its own account in Google Workspace and its own email address. Actions are expected to be recorded in an audit trail attributed to the agent. The agent is expected to select a model for each task automatically, although the user can change the selection; the available options also include Claude models from Anthropic. The company describes adding open-source models and other private models as a future plan.

What changed

Why it matters

For work tasks requiring multiple apps, the agent is intended to bring task assignment, execution and progress tracking into a single interface. Its own identity and audit trail may help companies distinguish actions by the agent from actions by employees. Access is currently limited to enterprise customers in private preview.

Two audiences, two different impacts

What this means

01

For individuals

Employees with access to the private preview can assign work tasks from a single interface and track their progress in the “tasks inbox” interface. According to Google, context is also preserved when switching between connected devices.

What to do If you have access to the private preview, assign a clearly scoped work task and check its progress and outcome in the “tasks inbox” interface.

02

For a business

Connecting the agent to internal systems raises questions for companies about managing its separate account and permissions. The announced audit trail is intended to allow actions to be attributed directly to the agent rather than to an employee.

Processes
What to decide Before connecting the agent to internal systems, verify the permissions for its separate account and how its audit trail will be reviewed.
