Schedule meetings in a single click from conversations in Google Chat

With help from Gemini, we’re making it easier than ever to schedule meetings directly from conversations in Google Chat.

When someone in a Chat conversation with up to five members suggests finding a time to meet, using a phrase such as “Are you free tomorrow afternoon to go over the proposal?” or “Let’s grab 15 minutes to discuss this in person”, Gemini automatically detects the intent to schedule a meeting, and underlines the relevant text. Hovering over the underlined text reveals a scheduling card that includes:

• Suggested times: Up to three meeting times based on Google Calendar availability, with any conflicts clearly flagged.
• Attendees: Guests are filled in from the conversation, including people mentioned by name.
• Suggested meeting title: A suggested title based on the context of the conversation, which you can edit directly in the card.

Simply select a time and and click Schedule to create the meeting in a single click. A confirmation appears in the conversation, so everyone knows the meeting is booked. If you need to configure additional details, click Open in Calendar to finish scheduling the meeting.

Hover over the underlined text in a message to see suggested times, attendees, and a meeting title, then schedule the meeting in one click.

By helping you schedule meetings without breaking the flow of conversation, this feature enhances team collaboration and reduces context switching while streamlining one of the most common tasks in Google Chat. Some things to note:

• At launch, this feature is available in Google Chat on the web (chat.google.com and Chat in Gmail) in English.
• Suggestions appear in direct messages and in small group conversations with up to 5 participants.
• To avoid being disruptive, Gemini only underlines messages with a clear request to set up a new meeting.
