Gemini Adds Connected Apps From Adobe, Airtable and Peloton

Google is widening what the Gemini app can reach into without a user leaving the chat window. The rollout, described in a post from Gemini App group product manager Mai Lowe, groups the new connections into three buckets: productivity, creativity and lifestyle. On the productivity side, Airtable, Linear, monday.com, PandaDoc, Wispr AI and Zoho join the list, aimed at people who want Gemini to manage projects, organize databases or dictate notes without opening a separate tab. The creative bucket brings in Adobe, Picsart, Squarespace and Webflow, tools aimed at building visual assets and websites from inside a chat. The lifestyle bucket is the least conventional grouping: apartments.com for housing searches, Experian for credit monitoring, Peloton for workout planning and SeatGeek for event tickets.

Setup follows the pattern Google has used for earlier Connected Apps: a user turns a connection on in Gemini’s settings menu, after which the assistant can either be asked directly to use a linked service or invoked with an @ mention inside a conversation. Google frames this as removing tab switching, but it is also a step toward Gemini functioning as a control layer that sits above other companies’ products rather than a chat box beside them.

The numbers

The newsroom post names three categories of new Connected Apps and ten named partners across them: Airtable, Linear, monday.com, PandaDoc, Wispr AI and Zoho under productivity; Adobe, Picsart, Squarespace and Webflow under creativity; and apartments.com, Experian, Peloton and SeatGeek under lifestyle. No adoption figures, pricing changes or usage limits accompanied the announcement, so this is a capability change to the free product surface rather than a plan or billing update.

The mix is notable for what it is not. None of the newly listed partners are enterprise software vendors of the kind Google typically pairs with Workspace, and several, including Experian and Peloton, sit closer to personal finance and health than to work tools. That signals Google is pushing Gemini’s Connected Apps feature toward everyday household use rather than treating it purely as a productivity add-on, following a pattern the company set with earlier household-chore integrations for the same app. Whether these connections carry their own data retention or sharing terms beyond Gemini’s existing privacy settings was not addressed in the announcement, and readers who link a credit-monitoring or fitness account should expect to check that separately.
