Google is rolling out Gmail Live to Google AI subscribers after announcing it at Google I/O last month. The feature is now out of beta and lets people search their inbox with conversational voice commands.
Gmail Live works much like a live voice chat with Gemini, but focuses on information in email. Google says it can find details buried in messages without making users work through long threads. Someone could ask, "What's my flight's gate number?" or "What's going on at my kid's school this week?" Gmail Live then scans the inbox for an answer.
Docs Live can draft from several sources
Google is bringing similar voice features to Docs and Keep. With Docs Live, a user can tell Gemini what kind of document they need. It can draw on relevant information from Gmail, Drive, Chat and the broader web, then organize that material into a first draft. Google says users can also refine the draft's tone.
Keep Live organizes spoken ideas
Keep Live is designed to turn spoken thoughts into structured notes and lists while processing voice commands in the background. Google describes it as a way to "capture, structure and refine your ideas into organized, actionable notes" without typing.
In Google's video example, a person says, "I promised my son I would paint his room this weekend... I'm going to need a list of instructions as well as supplies." Keep Live responds, "Preparing your painting note now," and generates a shopping list and a how-to guide.
Gmail Live and Keep Live are rolling out this week for Google AI Plus, Pro and Ultra subscribers. Docs Live is limited to Pro and Ultra subscribers. Google says all three features are "coming soon" for Google Workspace business customers.
