Google launches Gemini Spark in India, an AI-powered assistant that automates routine tasks across Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and Calendar while giving users control over permissions and approvals.

Spark handles practical use cases such as parsing travel details from emails, compiling and auditing invoices, flagging price changes, drafting replies in the user’s writing style, and organizing RSVP/dietary data.

The system can run multi-step tasks in the background, even when the device is locked or the app is closed, enabling continuous workflow.
