Google's AI agent that runs multi-step tasks for you — Deep Research, live web browsing, and Gmail/Calendar actions, with confirmation before it spends or sends.

Gemini Agent is Google's push to turn Gemini from a chatbot that answers into an agent that acts. It is an experimental feature inside the Gemini app that handles multi-step tasks on your behalf: you give it an objective, and it works through the steps instead of handing you a list of instructions. Google introduced it alongside its Gemini 3 model on November 18, 2025, first on the web for Google AI Ultra subscribers in the United States, and described it as rolling out to Ultra members first.
Rather than being a single new capability, Gemini Agent orchestrates Google's existing tools. To finish a request it draws on Deep Research, Canvas, connected Google Workspace apps like Gmail and Calendar, and live web browsing — breaking a goal into steps and completing them in sequence. Google's own example is a travel task: "Research and help me book a mid-size SUV for my trip next week under $80/day using details from my email," where the agent locates the flight details, compares rentals within budget, and prepares the booking. The guardrail is that you stay in control — Gemini seeks confirmation before critical actions such as making a purchase or sending a message, and you can take over at any point.
It is built partly on Project Mariner, Google DeepMind's browser-automation research prototype from December 2024, which Google discontinued as a standalone project in May 2026 and folded into Gemini Agent and Agent Mode. It sits within a wider agentic family — Agent Mode in the app, the desktop-focused Gemini Spark, agentic browsing in Chrome, and Gemini Enterprise for businesses building their own agents.
The important thing to be clear-eyed about: Gemini Agent is a personal task and research agent, not a content-creation tool. It generates no social posts, no video, no captions, and it publishes nothing to your channels. Access started with Google AI Ultra — which begins around $100/month, with a higher tier near $200/month — on the web in the US, and the feature is labelled experimental. Treat exact availability, gating, and reliability as a moving target.
Gemini Agent's real gift to a creator is the front of the funnel: it is very good at going out, researching a subject across the live web, and compiling what it finds into a clean, sourced brief — the part of content work that eats the most time before a single post exists. What it cannot do is turn that brief into anything you can publish. It writes no caption in your voice, records no video, designs no carousel, and posts to nothing. So the natural pairing is a handoff: let Gemini Agent do the gathering, and let [Kompozy](/) do the making and the shipping.
Concretely, take the Deep Research report or the compiled findings Gemini Agent produced and drop them into Kompozy as a source. Kompozy rewrites them to your voice through a [Persona Brief](/glossary/persona-brief), then generates the finished formats an agent can't — a captioned [Persona Short](/glossary/persona-shorts) or HeyGen avatar video narrating the key point, a brand-exact [Carousel](/glossary/hyperframes) breaking down the research, Quote Graphics pulling the sharpest stats, per-platform Text Posts, a Blog Article for search, and an Email Newsletter. Then [Autopilot](/glossary/autopilot) schedules and publishes the whole set across the eight social platforms plus blog and email from one queue, behind a per-post review. The division is clean and repeatable: Gemini Agent researches the week, Kompozy produces and distributes it.

Gemini Agent is an experimental feature inside the Gemini app that handles multi-step tasks on your behalf. Introduced with Gemini 3 on November 18, 2025 for Google AI Ultra subscribers in the US, it uses Deep Research, Canvas, connected Google Workspace apps like Gmail and Calendar, and live web browsing to break a goal into steps and complete them — for example, researching and preparing a car-rental booking from details in your email.
No. Google designed it to seek confirmation before critical actions such as making a purchase or sending a message, and you can take over at any time. It researches and prepares autonomously, then hands the final consequential step back to you, so it is an assisted agent rather than a fully hands-off one.
No. Gemini Agent is a personal task and research agent — it browses, gathers, and prepares actions. It generates no captions, video, or posts and publishes to no platform. A content engine like Kompozy handles generation across formats and cross-platform publishing.
Use the agent to research a topic and compile a sourced brief, then bring that brief into Kompozy. Kompozy rewrites it in your voice via a Persona Brief, generates Shorts, carousels, quote graphics, text posts, a blog, and a newsletter, and schedules and publishes them across nine platforms plus blog and email.
It is included with a Google AI Ultra subscription, which starts around $100/month, with a higher tier near $200/month. There is no separate charge for the agent, but at launch it was an experimental feature on the web for AI Ultra subscribers in the US.
