Loved meeting IRL with folks from @GeminiApp @googlechrome @GoogleWorkspace @YouTube @madebygoogle @googlehealth and more who are building awesome new additions and improvements to our @Google AI subscriptions! We have some cool launches coming up, but in the meantime, if you're a subscriber (or considering become one), I'd love to hear from you what your favorite features are, and what else you'd love for us to build! PS. Thank you @OfficialLoganK for making a cameo, interviewed by our very own @vikaskansalHQ!

Join @GoogleDeepMind Principal Engineer @__apf__ to walk through how Gemini Spark helps simplify your daily workflows. Powered by Gemini 3.5 Flash, Spark builds upon Gemini's ability to connect with @GoogleWorkspace apps like Docs and Gmail to execute complex tasks.

It’s time for our end-of-week recap 👇 — Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking, our most advanced live dialogue audio models yet — Dreambeans, an experiment from @GoogleLabs that curates a daily personalized collection of stories, is now GA — CC from @GoogleLabs has expanded from a personal productivity tool into a shared agent, designed to help families and households coordinate logistics, schedules, and daily tasks — Google Pics, a new @GoogleWorkspace tool that lets you generate, refine, and co-create images, is now GA — AlphaGenome Atlas, @GoogleDeepMind's new interactive platform for genomics discovery

It’s (finally) Friday 🎉 Here’s our end-of-week recap: — This year’s @madebygoogle lineup (Pixel 11 series, Pixel Watch 5, and Pixel Tag) brings new AI integrations across devices. A few of the key announcements were Magic Capture for simultaneous video and photo capture, Rambler’s AI voice typing and text transformation, and expanded Live Transcribe for real-time ASL-to-text translation using the Pixel camera. Tying it all together is Gemini Intelligence, our proactive, agentic AI layer to anticipate user needs. — Gemini 3.7 Flash, our most intelligent workhorse model yet for coding and agents, is now available in the Gemini API via @googleaistudio, @antigravity, Spark in the @geminiapp, and the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. It’s also rolling out to paid users on @googleworkspace, Gemini App, and Search. — @GoogleDeepMind's WeatherNext 2, an AI forecasting tool that can give meteorologists an extra day of accuracy when predicting a cyclone's track, intensity, and wind structure, is now open source. — The upgraded @Gemini_Notebook experience has been fully rolled out to all Pro users and the ability to copy a notebook has been rolled out to all users.

Google announced new cross-app integrations across Google Workspace. "5 new agentic capabilities across Google Workspace apps" 1. Creating a presentation directly from Google Chat 2. Building detailed spreadsheets without leaving Google Drive 3. Drafting and sending team emails directly inside Google Docs 4. Transforming long email threads into structured briefs 5. Converting a written proposal in Docs into a branded deck

Google Workspace is still the least worst options for companies. It's incredibly flexible, reliable, and better designed than Microsoft 365. But the overall experience is still pathetic: poor defaults, UI elements all over the place, friction everywhere in the UX, confusing settings, etc. Part of why I started working on was to offer an alternative to Notion and Google Docs. With the upcoming version, I'll effectively have functionally a poor man's Google Drive. I'm this close to just adding email to not have to deal with this BS anymore. Just don't make me do it. I don't want to run an email service.

Grok is now in Google Workspace. Install one add-on for Sheets, Slides, and Docs. Turn research into reports, build decks from outlines, and draft documents in place with Grok.

Say goodbye to Google Workspace. Someone built a complete replacement that runs on your own server, costs nothing, and has 400+ apps. It's called Nextcloud. 400,000 organizations are already running it. The German federal government switched to it. The French public sector switched to it. The European Parliament uses it. None of them are doing it to save money. Here's what one install actually gives you: → File sync and sharing that works exactly like Dropbox → Live document editing with full Word/Excel compatibility, no internet required → Video calls with end-to-end encryption and no vendor in the call with you → Photo backup with local AI face grouping, your machine, your data → Calendar and contacts synced to every device through open standards → 400+ apps including Jira-style project boards, Spotify-style music streaming, and RSS readers The architecture is the part nobody talks about. Nextcloud does not route your data through their servers. Ever. Your server talks directly to your devices. No company in the middle. No terms of service that can change overnight. No price increase email you have to swallow. Google Workspace costs $12/user/month and owns everything you put in it. Nextcloud costs whatever your VPS costs and owns nothing. 35K stars. 100% Opensource.

Smarter financial planning is just a Google Sheet away. We're excited to announce that @Workday for Google Sheets is now available in the Google Workspace Marketplace! Ditch the manual CSV downloads and bring Adaptive from Workday right into your everyday flow in Sheets and Slides.
