Google Agent Assist
Google Agent Assist gives customer care representatives guidance during customer interactions. It can recommend ready-to-send responses, provide contextual steps and next-best actions, and generate suggested content from business and customer sources such as websites, knowledge bases, documentation and CRMs. For calls, it transcribes in real time and prepares summaries of interactions, key takeaways and next steps afterward. AI Coach provides contextual coaching during conversations, while AI Trainer offers interactive simulations and personalized training for new and less experienced support staff. A Salesforce Lightning Web Component connects Agent Assist modules to Salesforce for suggestions during chat and voice conversations. The service is available through web and API platforms and supports multiple channels. Chat is billed per message for customers onboarded on or after March 6, 2026; earlier customers remain on per-session SKUs. Listed voice rates are $0.03 processed for Standard and $0.05 processed for Enterprise. The product page notes a preview feature and says Cloud AI availability or latency guarantees may differ from other Google Cloud services.
