Google introduced Gemini Spark in its macOS app to let the AI automate actions on local files, such as sorting PDFs into folders or pulling invoice details for scheduled spreadsheets. The expansion adds third-party service links, custom MCP server support, and real-time monitoring of selected topics, currently restricted to beta access for qualifying subscribers.
Examples include directing the agent to organize PDFs from a Downloads folder into specifically labeled subfolders or extracting data from saved invoices to populate a Google Workspace budget spreadsheet according to a recurring timetable.
