With help from Gemini, we’re making it easier than ever to schedule meetings directly from conversations in Google Chat.
When someone in a Chat conversation with up to five members suggests finding a time to meet, using a phrase such as “Are you free tomorrow afternoon to go over the proposal?” or “Let’s grab 15 minutes to discuss this in person”, Gemini automatically detects the intent to schedule a meeting, and underlines the relevant text. Hovering over the underlined text reveals a scheduling card that includes:
Simply select a time and and click Schedule to create the meeting in a single click. A confirmation appears in the conversation, so everyone knows the meeting is booked. If you need to configure additional details, click Open in Calendar to finish scheduling the meeting.
| Hover over the underlined text in a message to see suggested times, attendees, and a meeting title, then schedule the meeting in one click. |
