What’s changing
Last year, we introduced Comeen for Google Chat, an app that helps users effortlessly manage workplace resources by enabling them to confirm or release meeting rooms and desks via real-time notifications within Google Chat.
Today, we’re excited to announce the next evolution of the Comeen app: the Workplace AI Agent. This powerful assistant uses generative AI to help users complete key workplace actions using natural language. From bookings to workplace knowledge, everything happens in seconds through simple prompts. For example, users can:
- Book workplace resources (workstations, meeting rooms). By asking the Comeen app to book a space, it will find the most suitable resource based on your building, capacity needs, and preferences. For example, you can type:
- “Book a desk for tomorrow”
- “Book a desk with a dual screen”
- “Book a room at 2pm for 8 people with a Google Meet Hardware”
- Answer workplace or building-related questions. When you ask about your workspace or colleagues, you will get contextual answers tailored to your organization’s configuration and your individual context. For example, you can ask:
- “Which rooms are available now?”
- “Is Room New York free tomorrow at 3pm?”
- “Where can I print on the 3rd floor?”
