We’re bringing more agentic capabilities and personalized responses to AI Mode in Search, so Google can do more on your behalf and help you get things done. Plus, we’re expanding AI Mode to more people around the world.
Google Search’s AI Mode now has advanced features to help you with tasks like booking restaurant reservations. If you are a Google AI Ultra subscriber in the U.S., you can access this through the “Agentic capabilities in AI Mode” experiment in Labs. AI Mode is also expanding to over 180 new countries and territories in English, so more people can use it for complex questions.
AI is making Google Search radically more helpful, so you can ask any question on your mind and get things done. Starting today, we’re bringing more advanced agentic and personalized capabilities to AI Mode so you can make progress on your tasks and get more tailored information based on your interests. We’re also bringing AI Mode to even more people around the world. Read on for more.
New agentic capabilities in AI Mode can help you get things done more easily. We’re starting to roll out today with finding restaurant reservations, and expanding soon to local service appointments and event tickets.
For example, you can now ask about getting a dinner reservation with friends that includes multiple constraints and preferences — like party size, date, time, location and preferred cuisine — and AI Mode will streamline this process. Searching across multiple reservation platforms and websites, it will find real-time availability for restaurants that meet your specific needs — and then present you with a curated list of restaurants with available reservation slots to choose from. AI Mode does the legwork and links you directly to the booking page, so you can easily take the last step and finalize your reservation.
Under the hood, AI Mode uses the live web browsing capabilities of Project Mariner, direct partner integrations on Search, and the power of our Knowledge Graph and Google Maps to help users take action on the web. We’re working with partners like OpenTable, Resy, Tock, Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, Booksy and many more to make this experience possible.
This new agentic experience is rolling out for Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S. through the “Agentic capabilities in AI Mode” experiment in Labs.
Now, people in the U.S. who have opted into the AI Mode experiment in Labs will see results tailored to their personal preferences and interests. We’re starting with dining-related topics, helping you discover new restaurants and cafes that match your unique tastes.
Say you search, “I only have an hour, need a quick lunch spot, any suggestions?” AI Mode can use your previous conversations, along with places you’ve searched for or tapped on in Search and Maps to deliver more relevant options, personalized to you. So if AI Mode infers that you have a preference for Italian food, plant-based meals and places that have outdoor seating, you may get results suggesting options like these.
You’re in control of what context you share with Google and can adjust your personalization settings in your Google Account at any time.
You can now share anything you’re inspired by in AI Mode with friends and family, thanks to our new link-sharing capability available in the U.S. Just tap the “Share” button and your contacts can jump into the AI Mode response right where you left off, ask follow-up questions and continue exploring on their own. This can be particularly helpful for tasks you want to collaborate on, like planning a trip or a birthday party. As the sender, you are always in control of your shared links and can delete them at any time.
We’ve continued to receive incredibly positive feedback around AI Mode in Search — especially for its ability to handle longer, more complex questions. We’re seeing first-hand how it’s empowering people to tackle complicated tasks, from comparing products and planning trips to understanding how-tos.
Our most powerful AI search experience is available in the U.S., India and the UK, and starting today, we’re excited to expand AI Mode to over 180 new countries and territories in English. Now, even more people can ask nuanced, complex questions, while continuing to discover the richness of the web. We look forward to expanding access to even more languages and regions soon.
