Google wants to change how you start your day. Instead of jumping between Gmail, Calendar, and Drive first thing in the morning, the company’s new experimental AI agent called CC sends you one email that covers everything.
Google Labs CC is powered by Gemini models and sends a daily “Your Day Ahead” briefing straight to your inbox. It pulls together your schedule, tasks, bills, appointments, and key updates in one clear view. Think of it as having a personal assistant who reads through all your stuff overnight and gives you the highlights before your coffee kicks in.
The coolest part is how you interact with it. You don’t need to open another app or click through menus. Just reply to the email. According to Google, “You can steer CC by replying or emailing directly with custom requests, teaching it things about yourself or asking it to remember ideas and todos.”
How CC fits into Google’s broader AI push
CC is part of Google’s bigger move toward “agentic” AI that anticipates what you need before you ask. The company has been integrating Gemini across its entire ecosystem, from Gmail summaries to Calendar event detection. CC takes that a step further by proactively organizing your day instead of waiting for you to prompt it.
Unlike Siri or Alexa, which mostly react to voice commands, CC learns from your replies to get better at personalized nudges. However, it’s email-only for now, which means you can’t ask it questions on the go like you would with a voice assistant.
Google has been steadily adding AI features across Workspace, from Gmail summaries to Calendar event detection. CC takes that further by proactively organizing your day instead of waiting for prompts.
To join, you need a consumer Google account (not Workspace), be 18+ in the US or Canada, and have a Google AI Pro or Ultra subscription. The feature is currently on a waitlist, but you can put your name down via its website.
For busy parents juggling school emails or remote workers drowning in calendar invites, CC could make your life easier by spotting overlooked bills and upcoming deadlines.
