- More Gemini AI features coming to Google Calendar
- Gemini will now look for free times for your calls and meetings
- Google Business, Enterprise, and AI Pro for Education users can get it now
Trying to find the best time for a meeting could soon be a thing of the past, thanks to a new Gemini feature coming to Google Calendar.
Now, when you create a new event in the Google Workspace calendar app, Gemini can offer “suggested times” based on the participant’s availability.
It will offer a series of suggestions based on everyone’s work schedules and potential conflicts, and then you can review and choose the best space for everyone.
Gemini on Google Calendar
“Users have a new way to get time suggestions when creating a meeting in Calendar,” noted a Google Workspace update blog announcing the release. “Gemini in Google Calendar helps you identify the best times to meet with all attendees if you have access to their calendar.”
If multiple attendees decline a meeting invitation, the tool also seeks to make it easier to reschedule your meeting by offering a banner with a time when everyone is available, allowing you to quickly update the invitation.
The feature is rolling out now, but will initially only be available to Google Business, Enterprise, and AI Pro for Education users.
The news comes just a few months after Gmail launched a similar ‘Help me schedule’ feature aimed at helping users find meeting times that work for everyone.
The feature will be available as a button within the email toolbar; Once you click it, Gemini will automatically suggest available spaces based on your Google Calendar, along with the context of the email.
Within meetings, Gemini can generate responses based on meeting captions and other Google Workspace resources with ‘Ask Gemini in Meet’, reinforcing the enterprise AI tools Google offers.
