Google Cloud CEO On New Gemini Enterprise ‘Bringing AI To Everyone’

Thomas Kurian on Google Cloud’s new Gemini Enterprise agentic AI platform, innovation, pricing, Microsoft integration and making AI available to all Google customers and users. ‘Gemini Enterprise is the front door, and we’re democratizing how people can access AI and bring the power of enterprise chat, connectivity to enterprise sources, prepackaged agents and search, to every user and every company,’ says Kurian.

Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian expects Google’s new Gemini Enterprise agentic AI platform to transform the entire artificial intelligence industry, with Microsoft interoperability and pricing now available.

“What we’re doing is bringing AI to everyone by providing them a single front door through which they can chat with all of their enterprise data, search for information and use agents to do a variety of tasks on their behalf,” said Kurian in a pre-briefing with media and analysts.

Gemini Enterprise brings together several AI technologies including Google’s Gemini models, first and third-party AI agents, and core conversational AI and orchestration innovation from Google tech formerly known as Agentspace.

The new Gemini Enterprise securely connects to customers’ data wherever it lives, including Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and Microsoft SharePoint to business applications like Salesforce and SAP.

Gemini Enterprise includes a no-code workbench so any user—such as marketers and financial teams—can analyze information and orchestrate agents to automate processes across an organization.

Combined with Google DeepMind's models and customers’ own corporate data, agents can access and synthesize information from internal systems as well as Google AI tools like Code Assist and Deep Research within a single enterprise workflow, Google Cloud’s CEO said.

Google Gemini Enterprise Pricing

Gemini Enterprise Standard and Plus editions annual plans start at $30 per seat per month.

Gemini Business annual plans start at $21 per seat per month. Gemini Business includes a 30-day free trial period for all customers.

“Gemini Enterprise is the front door, and we’re democratizing how people can access AI and bring the power of enterprise chat, connectivity to enterprise sources, prepackaged agents and search, to every user and every company,” said Kurian.

Here are the five most important remarks from Kurian about Google’s new agentic AI stack Gemini Enterprise and what channel partners need to know.

Gemini Enterprise Is ‘The New Front Door For Every User To Use AI In The Workplace’

Gemini Enterprise is integrating all of these pieces into a super easy-to-use platform for every user, in every company—no matter how small or how large—and teams and departments within these companies to use AI at scale.

The key things that make Gemini Enterprise the new front door for every user to use AI in the workplace is it consists of a number of important things.

First of all, you need a super powerful large language model that forms the brains or the nervous system of how you interact with your enterprise systems using a large language model. And that is Gemini.

In Gemini Enterprise, we bring access to Google’s most advanced Gemini models. So they allow a user to chat with all of their enterprise data, to have it summarized for them, to create agents and to automate workflows. So Gemini is the brains of Gemini Enterprise.

Along with that, we give you a workbench to make it easy to use important features of Gemini.

The first one is to chat with all of your enterprise systems—your ERP system, your CRM system, your enterprise documents and databases. So you can get information from there, have it summarized, and it will be very easy to find all the information in your organization.

‘You Get Brains, A Front Door … And A Taskforce Of Prepackaged Agents’

We’re giving you very easy, low-code and no-code tools to build and use agents. And those agents can be used to automate workflows or processes within your organization. That’s the workbench.

You can also use it to search and find information from all the parts of your organization. So it gives you tools to chat, search and drive processes within your organization using agents.

The next is the Task Force. So this workbench allows you to create your own agents. You can also use prepackaged agents supplied by Google and from partners through that marketplace.

So you get brains, a front door through which you can access this brain, and a task force of prepackaged agents that can help you then execute on your behalf a set of tasks.

Now when you work in the company, you also have context in which you work. What’s the context with which you work?

You need to feed the large language model: the documents that you frequently use, the people you communicate with, the projects you’re responsible for.

So we give you packaged connectors to connect the large language model and Gemini Enterprise to all your internal systems: Microsoft Office, SharePoint, ERP systems, CRM systems, coding tools, etc. to make it easy— you don’t have to do it. We integrate it for you.

We also remember who you are and what you do, and use it to personalize the context you have when we work with a large language model.

Organizations ‘Want One Place To Govern’ AI Agents

Organizations want one place to govern all this [agentic AI].

What do we mean by govern? To monitor what agents are doing. To monitor which agents have been deployed. To monitor their security and to audit their functions.

So in one place with Gemini Enterprise, we’re bringing all of this to you.

As a user, you have one front door to access all of this capability because we’ve pre-integrated it for you.

What’s the difference between Agentspace and Gemini Enterprise?

Gemini Enterprise is the product name for all of the capabilities that we’re showing. Agentspace is a part of it. It’s the agent gallery within Gemini Enterprise.

But the product name is Gemini Enterprise. That’s the new product name, because it brings Gemini to the Enterprise.

‘We’re Democratizing How People Can Access AI’

Gemini Enterprise is the front door, and we’re democratizing how people can access AI and bring the power of enterprise chat, connectivity to enterprise sources, prepackaged agents and search, to every user and every company.

We’ve been working with a broad partner ecosystem to have them connect their applications and their systems to Gemini Enterprise, as well as to build prepackaged agents for a variety of different domains and industries.

So there’s [many in our] partner ecosystem that we brought together, and these will be visible to customers as they use Gemini Enterprise.

Now, all of Gemini Enterprise is built on our world leading AI infrastructure.

The speed with which we’re able to do analysis, the speed with which we’re able to serve-up results and the efficiency with it, is driven by our AI infrastructure.

It includes state-of-the-art models.

When we said they are state of the art, it includes the latest features in Gemini 2.5, the latest features in our diffusion models—all of that is giving users the power of our latest AI models.

Gemini Enterprise ‘Built On A Strong Security Foundation’

It’s built on a strong security foundation.

When I say security foundation, users can only access the information they’re authorized to.

We protect companies’ data so that your data as a customer, is your data and nobody else’s. So there’s a lot of protection.

It also meets national sovereignty and compliance requirements.

You can see this differentiation that we have with our products and the fact that we’re listening to our customers and partners to build new technology is what’s helping us grow.

We’re capturing new customers much faster. We’re deepening our relationship with existing customers, and we’re growing and continuing to diversify our business.

Just to give you a couple of examples: 9 of the top 10 AI labs in the world run on Google Cloud; 65 percent of our existing customers are already using our AI technology to transform the business. And those who use our AI technology typically use 1.5X as many products from us than those that do not.

‘Most Importantly, It’s An Open Platform’

Most importantly, it’s an open platform. As an organization, you can use agents built with any model.

You can connect it up into Gemini Enterprise. You can connect any enterprise system, like Microsoft Office and SharePoint.

So you can connect any other system you have because we recognize the need for openness when you work in an enterprise context.

We’re building deep, long-lasting relationships with customers, and we’re proud to bring this technology to our customer base. We’re really proud of this moment.

For us, this Gemini Enterprise technology is really about reimagining how to put a super powerful AI technology—but super easy to use—put it in the hands of every company and every user in those companies.
