Google is experimenting with a new AI agent called CC, designed to help families manage household tasks and coordinate schedules. This evolution of Google's AI capabilities builds upon existing Gemini models, leveraging data within a user's Google ecosystem to offer personalized insights and manage family-specific chores.
CC is designed to function as a shared tool for up to six family members. Users have control over the information the AI agent can access, with options to explicitly share emails, send content via email or Google Chat, and monitor a designated shared Google Drive folder. These permissions allow families to decide what information is available to CC.
A primary function of CC is to generate a daily 'Your Day Ahead' brief for all registered users, consolidating the day's events and providing updates on ongoing tasks. The agent can also assist with managing shared calendars by automatically adding important dates and to-dos, and can create shared documents for family use. CC can manage tasks such as filling out permission slips or activity registration PDFs, creating shopping lists, and planning weekly meals.
Google notes that CC runs on its own isolated cloud computer, powered by Gemini and Google’s agentic harness, Antigravity. The experiment is currently available only for U.S. users with a personal Gmail account who are 18 and older. Existing CC users will be invited via email to upgrade, while new users can join a waitlist.
