Google Cloud has launched Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience, marking a significant shift toward agentic AI in enterprise customer engagement by merging its retail and contact center AI platforms into a single autonomous system.
The new platform combines Vertex AI Search for retail with Contact Center AI (CCAI) Platform, creating what Google describes as an end-to-end agentic system that can independently manage customer interactions from product discovery through post-purchase support. Unlike traditional chatbot implementations, these AI agents use Gemini’s multimodal capabilities to understand context, make autonomous decisions, and coordinate actions across previously siloed systems.

Key capabilities include AI-powered personalization engines, visual search with natural language processing, and intelligent service agents that handle complex multi-turn conversations across voice and digital channels. The platform operates autonomously, learning from interactions and adjusting strategies in real-time without requiring human intervention for routine decisions.
Early enterprise adopters report measurable improvements in conversion rates and customer satisfaction metrics. The unified approach addresses a persistent challenge in customer experience: disconnected data silos and fragmented touchpoints that prevent consistent, contextual engagement.
What makes this “agentic”: The system doesn’t just respond to queries—it proactively anticipates needs, coordinates across multiple backend systems, and executes complex workflows autonomously. For example, an agent can identify a shipping issue, check inventory across warehouses, reroute an order, update the customer, and adjust future recommendations—all without human oversight.
The platform is generally available now with enterprise-grade security, compliance certifications, and integration capabilities for existing customer data platforms and CRM systems.
