Google Expands Gemini Spark Agent Access, Poland Still Left Out

Google has widened access to Gemini Spark, its personal AI agent for automating longer and more complex tasks, starting July 23, 2026. The tool, previously limited to a small group of testers on the top-tier AI Ultra plan, is now available to all AI Pro subscribers in the United States and to AI Ultra users worldwide, with support for local languages.

What changed

Until now, Gemini Spark had been running as a limited test, available only to a subset of top-paying AI Ultra users in the United States. Google is now opening the feature to the entire US market under the cheaper AI Pro plan, while also expanding it geographically to AI Ultra subscribers outside the US, adding support for local languages instead of English only.

Google announced the change through the official Gemini account on X, saying the AI Pro rollout would extend to more countries soon. The company did not provide a specific list of countries or a timeline for these next stages.

What Gemini Spark is

Spark differs from a standard chatbot in that it runs in the background and carries out multi-step tasks without constant user oversight. It's built on three components: Tasks, high-level goals to accomplish; Schedules, which trigger automations based on time or specific conditions; and Skills, saved instructions with context that the agent can reuse repeatedly.

The agent integrates with the Google Workspace suite, including Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Keep, and Google Tasks. It also has access to search, location data, can execute code, and can use a remote web browser to carry out longer research or planning processes.

In practice, that means the agent can automatically scan a user's morning email and calendar to summarize priorities, draft replies for selected senders, condense long email threads, or generate reports based on meeting notes saved in Google Docs. Users can have up to 15 such tasks running at the same time.

Who pays and who's left out

Access to Spark still depends on Google's most expensive plans. The AI Pro plan costs $20 a month in the US, while AI Ultra ranges from $100 to $200 a month depending on the tier. Free Gemini users don't have access to the agent and won't gain it under the current expansion.

For European, including Polish, users, the key detail is what's still excluded. Google has for months kept Gemini Spark out of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Nigeria, likely due to regulatory requirements including the EU's AI Act and digital services rules. The July 23 expansion doesn't change that picture, it covers only the US market and other countries already reachable through the AI Ultra plan.

The Polish perspective

For Polish businesses and individual users, this means Google's most advanced agentic product remains unavailable, even as competitors such as OpenAI and Anthropic develop their own agentic tools that are available in Europe. Google has not commented on when, or whether, Spark will reach markets covered by EU AI regulations.

The expansion fits a broader trend of major tech companies automating office tasks as they compete to be seen as the provider of the most autonomous AI assistant for businesses and individual users. The coming months will show whether Google adapts Spark to meet EU requirements or continues to limit its availability to markets outside Europe.
