Beyond serving as a personal assistant, the Gemini agent can also be used as a "team member". It can serve as a PM, financial analyst, and more within a team.

The Gemini agent is currently in private preview, and is expected to open broadly to eligible Workspace customers soon, supporting some Business and Enterprise plans.
