With these integrations, users will be able to work without barriers with Salesforce and Google Workspace generative AI assistants, Einstein Copilot and Duet AI. Salesforce customers will be able to use their own account, contacts, and opportunity data to generate slides and documents in Workspace. They will also be able to bring summaries from Google Meet and context from Gmail and Google Calendar to Salesforce, with the goal of updating records or activating workflows.
As part of the collaboration, both companies have worked together to make their generative AI assistant offerings extensible, and each of them will be the first partner to be available through the other’s third-party platforms.
In addition to facilitating everyday work, the expansion of this agreement will help increase productivity by providing the right data and context when it is needed. They will also allow you to take advantage of the advantages of generative AI in the workflow.
