Gemini Spark, the new personal AI agent that Google announced at its I/O conference last week, is now available in beta for Google AI Ultra subscribers in the US. Gemini Spark runs in the background, and it has access to users’ personal information, allowing it to suggest tasks to perform on their behalf.
“It’s deeply integrated with the Workspace tools you rely on daily, like Gmail, Docs, Slides and more,” Google explained last week (https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/products/gemini-app/next-evolution-gemini-app/). Even better, because it is a cloud-based agent, Spark keeps working in the background even when you close your laptop or lock your phone. That combination means Spark is ready to take complex tasks off your plate so you can be more present for what matters most.”
At #GoogleIO, we introduced @GeminiApp Spark, your 24/7 personal AI agent that helps you navigate your digital life, taking action on your behalf and under your direction — and you can use it across mobile and desktop, even when your laptop is closed.

Gemini Spark can serve as a productivity assistant for handling complex workflows. It can also be configured to perform recurring tasks, such as ordering groceries online or parsing monthly credit card statements. Google AI Ultra subscribers can teach it new skills using natural language prompts. The AI agent will always ask users for confirmation before performing sensitive actions, including sending emails or completing a transaction.
Gemini Spark is currently available on the Gemini app on the web and mobile, and it will be coming to the Gemini app for macOS this summer. Google is also working on new connections with apps like Canva, Opentable, and Instacart. “We’ll also be adding new abilities, including texting and emailing Spark, creating custom sub-agents and operating your local browser,” Google said last week.
