Google I/O 2026: Google unveils Docs Live, a Gemini feature that writes documents for you

Google has unveiled a new AI-powered way of getting work done at lightning speed with the introduction of Docs Live. Building on its latest AI developments, the company showcased how users can now simply brain-dump voice notes instead of typing detailed prompts into Gemini, allowing Docs Live to organise and articulate ideas into polished drafts automatically.

A demo from the product team showcased product engineers using the new suite to generate talking points for presentations. Beyond that, Docs Live was shown pulling details from a user’s résumé, creating humorous analogies for speeches, and even extracting relevant information from emails to automatically insert into documents. The demonstration highlighted the broad cross-platform capabilities that Docs Live is expected to offer.

Beyond capturing and organising information, users can also ask Docs Live to handle smaller formatting nuances, including creating tables, taking notes, and bolding text where necessary.

Sundar Pichai added that, in the future, Docs Live will be capable of carrying out full document editing through voice commands alone. Docs Live is expected to roll out to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers this summer, with similar features also planned for Gmail and other Google platforms.
