Yesterday, Google officially launched new voice capabilities in Gmail, Docs and Keep, so that users can engage in real-time conversation across Google Workspace to make their day-to-day easier than ever.
We’re bringing new voice capabilities to @GoogleWorkspace to help you tackle daily tasks. These are now rolling out across @Gmail, @GoogleDocs, and Keep to help you search your inbox, organize your thoughts, or brainstorm new ideas conversationally.

New voice capabilities across Google Workspace
Gmail Live
With Gmail Live, you can skip the manual search entirely. Use conversation search to find information, and Gmail Live will scan your inbox and give you answers quickly.
Docs Live
Instead of staring at a blank page, you can engage in real-time conversation with Docs Live to build structured, context-aware documents on the fly. Docs Live acts as your thought partner and co-writer to help you get to a first draft faster using your voice.
Just talk, and Docs Live handles the heavy lifting: organising your thoughts, structuring your document, and (with your permission) pulling relevant details directly from your Gmail, Drive, Chat, and the broader web.
Keep Live
Keep is usually used to note a quick idea or something that crosses your mind before you forget it. Now, you can talk to Keep Live to capture, structure, and refine your ideas into organised, actionable notes.
Keep’s new voice feature understands your stream of consciousness and processes it in the background, turning your thoughts into structured lists and notes without you having to type a single word.
Availability
These new conversational features are rolling out this week. They are available in Gmail and Keep for Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers, and in Docs for Pro and Ultra subscribers.
All of these features will be coming soon for Google Workspace business customers.
