GCP – Bringing connected and AI-powered work experiences across our platforms and devices

The way we work is rapidly transforming, and AI is quickly becoming a connection point across workflows and tasks both big and small. Whether it’s saving time by converting automated meeting notes into a follow-up email to a client, or getting help with brainstorming your next big campaign idea, Generative AI, driven by models like Gemini, offers seamless, intelligent help for employees. Google is able to bring the power of AI seamlessly into every work surface, from the browser, to the operating system to core work applications, across an expanding collection of new devices.

So how does this come to life for our customers? Our platforms like Chrome Enterprise, the most trusted enterprise browser, and Android, the flexible OS that powers mobile and beyond, have hundreds of millions of business users relying on these technologies at work, and AI continues to make them more helpful for the workforce.

Hardware like Google Pixel and Chromebook Plus devices are infused with AI, built for these new AI experiences, and are already growing in adoption among businesses. But it doesn’t stop there. We’re also expanding to new surfaces with Android XR, the extended reality operating system for next-gen headsets and smart glasses. And Google Beam, our AI-first video communication platform is redefining how we connect.

Together, Google’s enterprise platforms and devices build for the connected future.

Let’s look at how this comes together with recent and exciting new capabilities for enterprises:

Empowering your employees to work smarter and be more productive

Across our platforms and devices, we’re offering familiar user experiences, so employees get the right apps and information they need. Whether that’s Google’s productivity apps, third party SaaS apps, custom apps or even legacy apps. And we make sure that help from Gemini is just a tap, click or prompt away.

To help organizations continue to move towards a more modern endpoint computing experience, we’re excited to announce the general availability of Cameyo by Google, allowing users to run any application, legacy or modern, side-by-side. Built in the cloud as part of the Google enterprise stack, Cameyo delivers a seamless, web-based experience for users and eliminates complexity for IT.

We recently announced Gemini in Chrome, an AI browsing assistant that enables end users to work more efficiently. It can be used to quickly summarize long reports or documents, grab key information from a video or brainstorm ideas for a new project. Gemini in Chrome can understand the context of a user’s tabs, and recall recent tabs they had open. By combining Gemini in Chrome with an app virtualized by Cameyo, organizations can bring the helpfulness of AI to legacy apps on the web.

Gemini in Chrome is available with enterprise grade protections to Google Workspace customers giving IT and security teams control over how their users use AI. These capabilities are rolling out to Android, iOS, Mac, and Windows users already. We’re excited to announce that in addition to the built-in Gemini capabilities on ChromeOS, these Gemini in Chrome capabilities will also be available to Workspace customers on their Chromebook and Chromebook Plus devices soon.

Endpoints for a new work era

Organizations need devices that are purpose-built for the AI era, with powerful hardware and AI integrations directly in the operating system. Google is integrating Gemini and Google AI across a wide set of devices and form factors to deliver a consistent experience, wherever work happens.

Chromebook Plus provides a line of devices designed with more powerful hardware to deliver AI-powered experiences at a great value. This year, we launched new features like Text capture and Select to search with Lens. We also launched two new devices, the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14” and the Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 equipped with Mediatek NPU processors delivering up to 50 TOPS. We will continue to bring powerful laptop experiences to support the needs of workers today and into the future.

Similarly, employees need the flexibility to be productive, especially on the go. Google Pixel uses on-device AI through Gemini Nano to enable features such as offline summarization in the Recorder app,¹ Call Notes,² Magic Cue,³ Live Translate (Voice)⁴ and more. Additionally, features like Gemini Live⁵ with screen sharing and camera sharing help bring new levels of productivity to users on the go.

We’re also starting to see new emerging form factors like extended reality (XR) as ways to extend our workplace. The introduction of Android XR marks a major shift for the modern enterprise, extending the reach of contextual AI beyond mobile devices and into the physical workspace. This platform, running on a new ecosystem of headsets and smart glasses, integrates Gemini to provide a true hands-free, contextual assistant. For employees in fields like field service, manufacturing, healthcare, or logistics, this means real-time, heads-up support overlayed onto their view of the world. For example, a technician could receive step-by-step repair instructions or access complex schematics on an optional in-lens display while keeping both hands on the equipment.

Improving security controls and visibility

For IT teams, we know there is a need larger than ever for more visibility and protections. We’re delivering security intelligence and flexible management to AI-powered end user computing environments.

Comprehensive data protection at the browser and OS level is crucial for navigating today’s evolving threat landscape, especially with the rise of AI services. To deliver this essential protection where work primarily happens, within the browser, we’ve embedded robust data loss prevention directly into Chrome Enterprise Premium. This provides IT and security teams with an extensive, easily configurable set of tools in Chrome to proactively guard against accidental or intentional data loss across all web applications.

We’ve expanded many of the data loss prevention capabilities to mobile platforms as well. Admins now can:

• Audit, warn or block access to sites or categories of sites on iOS or Android
• Set limitations on copying and pasting sensitive data in mobile
• Restrict downloads including when users are in Incognito mode
• Provision client certificates to Chrome managed profiles on Android, this capability is coming to iOS soon

Organizations leveraging Google’s security ecosystem can now benefit from a new one-click integration with Google SecOps. This integration delivers unprecedented browser intelligence, including data loss events and risky activity, to SecOps, empowering security teams to conduct more thorough investigations and make faster, better-informed decisions.

The rapid rise of Generative AI, powered by Gemini, fundamentally changes what we expect from our enterprise technology, offering seamless, intelligent assistance across every workflow. Google is committed to delivering a unified vision, ensuring this help is immediately available by empowering your employees across every surface—from Chrome and Android to web applications virtualized by Cameyo by Google. By creating endpoints built for the AI era like Chromebook Plus and extending the workplace with Android XR, we ensure powerful hardware and AI integrations go hand-in-hand. Discover how you can equip your teams for the future with Chrome Enterprise, ChromeOS, and Cameyo.
