Google has officially launched Workspace Studio, a no-code tool designed to help organizations create AI agents that automate routine work across Gmail, Drive, Calendar and Chat. Powered by Gemini 3, the new feature aims to significantly reduce time spent on repetitive administrative tasks such as sorting emails, coordinating meetings and following up on pending action items.
In its announcement, Google highlighted that past workflow automation tools were often rigid or required specialised technical skills, limiting their adoption. Workspace Studio changes this dynamic by enabling employees to build custom automations simply by typing instructions in natural language or choosing from pre-built templates. Once a task is defined, Gemini generates and optimises the workflow.
These agents go beyond traditional rule-based triggers. With multimodal reasoning, they can perform sentiment analysis, prioritise tasks, generate content, identify intent, send alerts and adapt workflows in real time.
During early testing, cleaning solutions company Kärcher worked with partner Zoi to deploy a virtual team of agents for product planning. One agent evaluated ideas, another assessed feasibility, a third prepared user flows and a fourth generated user stories. The setup reportedly reduced drafting time by over 90 percent.
Google noted that participants in the Gemini Alpha programme have already executed more than 20 million automated tasks in the last month-from reminders and scheduling to reviewing contracts and processing travel approvals.
Workspace Studio supports integration with third-party platforms such as Salesforce, Jira, Asana and Mailchimp. The rollout begins in the coming weeks for business customers.
