Gemini is adding direct connections to more than a dozen third-party apps, letting users manage projects, create visual assets, and handle personal tasks without leaving the chat interface. The rollout, which begins today, spans productivity, creativity, and lifestyle categories.
Mai Lowe, Group Product Manager for the Gemini App, said the update brings tools directly into conversations. "Instead of switching between tabs, you can now manage projects, design creative assets, and plan your workouts all in one place," Lowe said.
Apps joining Gemini across three categories
The new connected apps cover a wide range of workflows. On the productivity side, users can link Airtable, Linear, monday.com, PandaDoc, Wispr AI, and Zoho to manage projects, organize databases, and dictate notes. Creative tools include Adobe, Picsart, Squarespace, and Webflow for designing visual assets and building websites. Lifestyle integrations bring apartments.com for rental searches, Experian for credit monitoring, Peloton for workout planning, and SeatGeek for event tickets.
How to connect your apps
Users can set up connections through Gemini settings or pull apps directly into a chat by typing an @ mention or making a plain-language request. The feature eliminates the friction of jumping between separate tabs and platforms during a single workflow.
For teams that rely on project management platforms like Linear or monday.com, this means updating task statuses or pulling database records without leaving the conversation where strategic decisions happen. The same applies to creative professionals who can brief design work in Adobe or publish updates through Webflow mid-discussion.
Why this matters for operations, IT, and product teams
Connected apps reduce context-switching, a persistent drain on focus for professionals who move between tools all day. For IT and development teams, the ability to query project data or trigger actions in tools like Linear through a single interface can cut down the micro-interruptions that fragment deep work. Product managers and operations leads gain a faster path from discussion to action - pulling a monday.com board status or generating a PandaDoc draft without opening a new browser tab. Sales and customer support teams can surface credit data from Experian or manage event logistics through SeatGeek while staying inside the chat thread where customer context already lives. Professionals looking to build skills around these workflows can explore AI Productivity Courses or broader Google AI Courses that cover practical integration strategies.
