Google's CC becomes an AI agent built for families

Google Labs is turning CC, its personal AI agent, into a shared assistant for households. In a post published on September 17, the company said the agent now serves families and groups of up to six members, who decide what to share so CC can organize calendars, track tasks and take on everyday logistics.

CC began as an agent that helped individuals plan their day, and in May it arrived in the Gemini app as Daily Brief. Google says early testers often asked it to do more around the home, where schedules and plans are spread across several accounts.

An agent with its own Google account

CC now has its own verified Google account, giving it a distinct identity and a clear permissions model. It responds only to group members and, according to Google, will not act or share information outside the group without permission. Each member chooses what to share — school emails, messages from a swim center or the vet — and can change that at any time; senders whose mail should always reach CC can be marked, and a weekly list of new ones is offered for approval.

What CC does for a household

Every morning CC delivers a shared "Your Day Ahead" brief, so everyone can see who needs to be where and what was already completed. It adds dates and to-dos to a family Calendar or task list automatically and keeps them current as plans change.

CC also takes over work that usually eats an evening: filling in permission slips or activity registration PDFs, building school supply lists, or drafting weekly meal plans. When details are missing it asks for them and updates its group memory.

Gemini, Antigravity and shared memory

The agent connects to Gmail, Chat, Docs and Calendar. Each CC runs on its own isolated cloud computer powered by Google's agentic harness Antigravity and the latest Gemini models, which lets it pre-fill registration forms, check live drive times from the Google Maps API between activities, and create shared Docs and Sheets. Its memory separates household-wide facts from personal ones.

Availability

CC is still an early Google Labs experiment, available on web and mobile to U.S. users aged 18 and over with a personal Google account. Existing users will get an email inviting them to upgrade; new users can join the waitlist. TechCrunch noted that the age limit keeps teenagers and school accounts out for now.
