The model that opens documents and drafts replies for you changed in a single day
Google's automation feature "Gemini Spark," which organizes your inbox into a schedule and fills out flight booking forms on your behalf, just got a new engine. According to news amplifier account TestingCatalog on August 13, Google rolled out Gemini 3.7 Flash to Spark, improving its tool-use capability for handling Google Workspace apps. Spark is now available to Gemini Pro and Ultra subscribers in 160 countries.
What is Gemini Spark
Spark isn't a simple chatbot — it's a "personal intelligence" feature that draws on a user's Gmail booking confirmations, photos stored in Google Photos, and even YouTube search history to produce personalized results. In a case revealed on August 8, Spark was shown pulling real-time data from Google Maps, Flights, and Hotels to build a travel itinerary, organizing inbox booking details into a Google Doc, and then filling out a flight booking form via Chrome on the user's behalf. This latest announcement is significant in that it extends that automation scope into "manipulation" across Google Workspace apps broadly.
What's new
The core change is improved tool-use capability. While the earlier version of Spark mainly "read and summarized" mail, documents, and calendars, the gist of this news is that Spark running on 3.7 Flash now also handles the manipulation steps — opening documents, filling in values, and moving between apps to execute tasks. That said, the original report covers this only briefly, so which specific Workspace apps are supported still needs further confirmation.
Version pace: from 3.6 to 3.7 in a day or two
One notable detail is the pace of updates. Just a day earlier, on August 12, a "Gemini 3.6 Flash" test notice banner appeared on the Gemini Enterprise screen, and on the morning of August 13, the model name "gemini-3.7-flash" was spotted in a filter search box. Then, that same afternoon, came the news that 3.7 Flash had actually been rolled out to Spark.
| Timing | What was observed |
|---|---|
| August 12 | "Gemini 3.6 Flash" test banner appeared on Gemini Enterprise |
| August 13, morning | Model name "gemini-3.7-flash" spotted in filter search box |
| August 13, afternoon | Gemini 3.7 Flash rollout to Gemini Spark announced |
That's two minor version bumps within a day or two. The account that first reported the sighting also speculated that versions would climb incrementally from 3.8 through 3.9.9 before Gemini 4.0 Pro arrives — and this Spark rollout can be read as evidence supporting that speculation.
How to try it
① Where to start — Access Spark through the Gemini app or on the web. The exact menu path wasn't specified in the original report. ② Who can use it — Available only to Gemini Pro or Ultra plan subscribers, in 160 countries, per the announcement. Whether free-tier users are supported wasn't mentioned. ③ What you can try — Based on earlier examples, once a trip is booked, Spark can reference Gmail booking confirmations and photos from Google Photos to automatically compile an itinerary into a Google Doc, and fill out a flight booking form via Chrome on your behalf. With this 3.7 Flash upgrade, it appears users will also be able to delegate tasks such as opening and filling in Workspace documents and spreadsheets.

What this means
Spark's expansion from "viewing" to "manipulating" means a broader range of repetitive tasks — like building schedules or organizing documents — no longer requires manual clicking. At the same time, this news signals a noticeably faster version-turnover cycle for Gemini models. The next thing to watch is how Google leverages Workspace automation to compete with ChatGPT and Claude in the actual productivity-tools market.
