Duet AI - smart assistance for Google Workspace instead of ChatGPT

Whether developer, marketer or sales manager - employees of almost all companies and departments use ChatGPT. But not all of them are aware of it: The trendy chatbot brings several challenges with it. This is the case, for example, in terms of data security and efficiency. All of these are solved smarter with Duet AI. Google's generative AI consistently further improves the simple, secure and cost-effective use of cloud applications.

If employees use ChatGPT, the IT department rarely knows about it. In other words, ChatGPT acts as shadow IT with all the risks, only more so than before. That's because studies show that employees most often use ChatGPT to write emails, summarize meeting notes, and create and fix code. In doing so, they are disclosing an inordinate amount of sensitive information that is simultaneously leaving the control of the company. The Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner recently advised, not for nothing, "a conscious approach to AI-powered applications" and reminded companies of their obligations. Even in the case of careful use of ChatGPT, the tool reveals gaps. This is because information is usually copied in and/or out. This costs time unnecessarily.

Seamless integration

The Duet AI add-on for Google Workspace, on the other hand, integrates advanced GenAI directly into Gmail, Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Sheets and Google Meet. This unlocks enormous productivity potential for companies and institutions, as a study by the McKinsey Global Institute has shown. Duet AI helps people write, visualize, organize, and connect, taking collaboration to a new level. The following functions, among others, are available for this purpose:

Support in Gmail and Docs

Here Duet AI accompanies the creation and refinement of content. With a short prompt, complete texts such as emails can be composed automatically. Names and other relevant information can be added immediately. This is because GenAI uses Smart Canvas and Smart Chips for information such as location and status as well as variables for customizable details during assisted writing. In addition, new, improved neural models for grammar in Docs help with writing texts in different languages. Even more powerful features than before are designed to assist with proofreading.

AI image generation

In Google Slides, Google's GenAI proves useful in creating visual inputs. It generates images from text after simple input prompts - in a form that has never existed before. This helps marketing and sales teams create presentation materials, for example.

Even faster analyses

Google Sheets users are unburdened because they can analyze and act on information in tables even faster than before. Classification tools understand the context of data in a cell and can assign a label to it, eliminating manual entry. The Help me organize feature automatically creates custom schedules for tasks, projects, or other activities users want to track or manage.

Deeper connections via Google Meet

In Google Meet, Duet AI should provide one or two even more original custom backgrounds in the future, deepening connections in the hybrid work world. At the same time, Duet AI supports audio and exposure. This provides a professional look while protecting the privacy of employees.

Duet AI - a strong ally

By integrating GenAI into Google Workspace, admins have control over data and access at all times. Duet AI thus helps to safely automate work steps, reduce errors, relieve people of routine work, and create new freedom for creativity and innovation. This in turn has positive effects on employee motivation and means an additional boost for productivity, so that the investment pays for itself within a short time.

Duet AI for Google Workspace Enterprise is initially available in English for the following editions of Google Workspace: Business Standard, Business Plus, Frontline Starter, Frontline Standard, Enterprise Essentials, Enterprise Essentials Plus, Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus, and Education Fundamentals/Standard/T&L Upgrade/Plus.
