Google CC

// Overview

Google CC is an experimental agent from Google Labs that you copy in rather than chat with. It has its own verified Google Account, so the address behaves like a member of the household: forward it a school notice, an invitation or a booking confirmation and the agent reads it, works out what it implies, and writes the result into Calendar and Tasks. The name is the point — you cc the agent on the things it should know about.

Since 17 September 2026 a single CC can be shared by up to six people. Each morning it produces one 'Your Day Ahead' brief giving, in Google's words, a clear view of who needs to be where, what needs to be done, and what CC already completed yesterday. A shared memory keeps household-level facts — a go-to grocery list, favourite family restaurants — separate from what belongs to one person, and an auto-cc setting lets each member nominate senders, such as a school or a travel provider, whose mail should always reach the agent without being forwarded by hand.

Beyond the brief, Google describes CC handling the paperwork that clogs a family calendar: filling out permission slips and activity registration PDFs, building school supply shopping lists, and drafting weekly meal plans. It connects to Gmail, Chat, Docs and Calendar. CC remains a Google Labs experiment rather than a general Google product — it is available on web and mobile to people aged 18 and over in the United States with a personal Google account, and new users join through a waitlist.

// What it does

• Its own verified Google Account, so the agent has a distinct identity and a clear permissions model
• Shared access for up to six household members, each choosing what the agent may see
• A daily 'Your Day Ahead' brief covering who needs to be where, what is outstanding, and what CC finished yesterday
• Auto-cc: nominate senders whose mail always reaches the agent without manual forwarding
• Shared memory that separates household-wide facts from one person's preferences
• Connections to Gmail, Chat, Docs and Calendar, with results written into Calendar and Tasks
• Help with form-shaped chores: permission slips, activity registration PDFs, supply lists and weekly meal plans

// Getting started

CC is a Google Labs experiment, not software you install. It is limited to people aged 18 and over in the United States with a personal Google account, on web and mobile.

// When to use it

• Pulling school notices, practice schedules and booking confirmations out of several inboxes into one shared morning brief
• Filling in permission slips and activity registration PDFs without one parent retyping everything
• Keeping a household grocery list and weekly meal plan that every member can see
• Writing dates and to-dos straight into Google Calendar and Tasks instead of leaving them in a chat window
