Ever felt like you’re drowning in a sea of scattered information at work? You know the feeling—trying to track down that vital document buried somewhere in Google Drive, or desperately hunting for insights across multiple platforms just to complete a simple task. It’s frustrating, right?
Well, here’s some good news. Google’s latest innovation, AgentSpace, might just be the lifebuoy we’ve all been waiting for.
What Exactly Is Google AgentSpace?
Google AgentSpace is a powerful AI-driven platform that brings together enterprise data, search capabilities, and AI agents to help employees become more productive. But it’s not just another search tool—it’s a comprehensive solution that combines Gemini‘s advanced reasoning capabilities with Google-quality search and enterprise data, regardless of where that data is stored.
Think of it as your company’s very own AI-powered knowledge assistant that actually understands what you’re asking and delivers useful, actionable insights rather than just a list of search results.
The Building Blocks of AgentSpace
Google AgentSpace isn’t a one-trick pony. It consists of several interconnected components that work together to create a powerful knowledge ecosystem:
NotebookLM Enterprise
Remember NotebookLM? Google’s tool that helps make sense of complex information? Well, they’ve now brought this capability to enterprises through NotebookLM Enterprise.
This feature allows your team to upload information, synthesise it, uncover insights, and engage with data in innovative ways—including podcast-like audio summaries. It’s the same experience that millions of users already love, but now with added security and privacy features suitable for work environments.
AgentSpace Enterprise
At its core, AgentSpace Enterprise provides a single, company-branded multimodal search agent that serves as a central source of truth for your entire organisation. It builds on Google’s renowned search capabilities to offer:
- Conversational assistance
- Answers to complex questions
- Proactive suggestions
- Actions based on your company’s unique information
What’s particularly impressive is its ability to work with both unstructured data (documents, emails) and structured data (tables). Plus, with built-in translation features, language barriers no longer prevent understanding information from different regions.
It comes with prebuilt connectors for commonly used applications like Confluence, Google Drive, Jira, Microsoft SharePoint, ServiceNow, and more—meaning your team can access and query relevant data sources without jumping between different platforms.
AgentSpace Enterprise Plus
This is where things get even more interesting. AgentSpace Enterprise Plus serves as a launch pad for custom AI agents that apply generative AI in context-aware ways.
These agents can help employees across different departments—marketing, finance, legal, engineering—conduct research, draft content quickly, and automate repetitive tasks, including multi-step workflows.
The beauty of AgentSpace Enterprise Plus is that it allows organisations to scale AI by hosting these agents in an intuitive interface where employees can discover and access all expert agents in one place.
The Latest Features (As of April 2025)
Google recently announced some exciting new features at Google Cloud Next that make creating and adopting agents even simpler:
- Chrome Integration: Employees can now access AgentSpace’s unified enterprise search, analysis and synthesis capabilities directly from the Chrome search box.
- No-Code Agent Designer: This new tool allows employees of all technical skill levels to create custom agents for their individual workflows and needs.
- Expert Google-Built Agents: AgentSpace now offers two new expert agents:
- Deep Research: Uses prompts to reason, plan, and perform hundreds of searches across the web and enterprise access-controlled data, then generates a comprehensive report of its findings.
- Idea Generation: Uses hundreds of AI agents to generate and refine innovative ideas, with comprehensive reports detailing strengths, weaknesses, and the brainstorming process.
Real-World Applications
Let’s break down how different teams can use AgentSpace to transform their workflows:
For Marketers
Marketers can unlock deeper performance analysis, optimise content recommendations, and fine-tune campaigns effortlessly to achieve better results. They can ask natural language questions about campaign performance and get insights instantly.
For Business Analysts
Business analysts can effortlessly uncover industry trends and create compelling, data-driven presentations fuelled by AI-generated insights. No more spending hours compiling data from different sources—AgentSpace does the heavy lifting.

For HR Teams
HR teams can revolutionise the employee experience with streamlined onboarding, even for complex tasks like 401k selection. New employees can get answers to their questions instantly, without having to wait for HR to respond.
For Software Engineers
Software engineers can proactively identify and resolve bugs, enabling them to build and iterate with greater efficiency, and accelerate deployment cycles. When facing a coding issue, they can quickly find relevant internal documentation or previous solutions.
The User Experience
The entry point for AgentSpace is a customised Search Agent with a chat-based interface similar to Gemini or other LLMs. Users can:
- Ask questions
- Select data sources
- View search suggestions
- Generate documents
All in one place.
What’s really clever is the personalisation. AgentSpace includes a “For You” section that, by connecting to your Google Calendar and Google Drive, proactively surfaces recent documents and upcoming meetings—even providing links to join calls directly from the page.
Security: A Top Priority
In an age where data security is paramount, Google has ensured that AgentSpace is built on their secure-by-design infrastructure. This provides:
- Granular IT controls
- Role-based access control (RBAC)
- VPC Service Controls
- IAM integration
All ensuring your data remains protected and compliant at all times.
Why AgentSpace Matters
The problem AgentSpace addresses is significant. In today’s enterprise environment, critical knowledge is often scattered across:
- Cloud storage (Google Drive, SharePoint)
- Collaboration platforms (Slack, Microsoft Teams)
- Critical business systems (Salesforce, SAP)
- Knowledge bases (Confluence)
- Countless internal databases
Finding crucial information can feel like searching for a needle in a digital haystack. AgentSpace eliminates this frustration by connecting all these systems and making information easily accessible through a single, intuitive interface.
The Future of Work
Google AgentSpace represents a significant step towards the agent-driven enterprise, where AI assistants handle routine tasks and information gathering, freeing humans to focus on higher-value work like creativity, critical thinking, and relationship building.
As more organisations adopt platforms like AgentSpace, we’ll likely see a shift in how work gets done—less time wasted on searching for information and more time spent applying insights to solve real business problems.
Getting Started
Currently, AgentSpace is available through an early access program as Google Cloud continues its rollout. If you’re interested in exploring its capabilities, you’ll need to sign up for this program or get in touch with a Premier Google Cloud partner like XPON.
