Workspace Intelligence

Google Workspace semantic layer announced at Next ’26 that grounds productivity agents in the context of meetings, emails, files, chats, and workflows.

Key points

• Google describes Workspace Intelligence as a semantic unifying layer that breaks down information and context silos for users and agents ^[src-044].
• It uses the semantic context of digital workflows spanning meeting notes, emails, files, and more to create an intelligence layer grounded in the organization’s unique context ^[src-044].
• Announced surfaces include AI Inbox and AI Overviews in Gmail, Ask Gemini in Google Chat, Gemini-assisted Docs/Sheets/Slides creation, Google Drive Projects, and a Workspace agent in Gemini Enterprise ^[src-044].
• The Workspace agent can execute complex, multi-step tasks across Workspace apps without leaving Gemini Enterprise ^[src-044].
