Google Labs just launched CC, an experimental AI productivity agent built with Gemini that delivers a Google CC daily briefing to your inbox every morning. The idea is to replace your usual tab hopping with a “Your Day Ahead” email outlining what’s coming up and what to do next.
If you like reading a daily roundup like Now Brief on Galaxy phones, CC is Google’s solution, but with a different starting point. Instead of living like something you check on your phone, Google sends the briefing via email and lets you respond to it for help later.
According to Google, CC connects to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and the entire web to provide an overview of your day.
What CC puts in your inbox
The “Your Day Is Ahead” message is intended to summarize your schedule, top tasks, and updates in a clear summary. Google’s examples are handy. Think about reminders like paying a bill or preparing for an appointment that appear alongside the context you would otherwise look for across apps.
CC is also supposed to speed up the next click. Google says it can prepare email drafts and generate calendar links if necessary, so the briefing can give you a path to action rather than just a summary.
You can contact CC at any time via email
CC isn’t limited to the morning email. Google says you can control it by replying to the briefing or emailing CC directly with custom requests. Then it depends on the wording of the “agent”.
According to Google, you can teach CC things about yourself over time and ask it to remember ideas and tasks. The promise is simple: you keep working in your inbox and CC becomes a common thread for organization and tracking.
How to join the waiting list
This is an early Google Labs experiment and access is blocked. Google says early access is available now to eligible consumer account users aged 18 and over in the US and Canada, starting with Google AI Ultra and other paying subscribers, with a waitlist sign-up on its website.
Before you get started, note what Google didn’t specify here: the pricing for AI Ultra, which paid tiers qualify, and the precise controls around permissions and storage in Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and across the web. If you’re sold on the concept, the practical next step is to join the waitlist and then verify your account permissions upon launch.
