Google has added new agentic capabilities to AI Mode so the search engine can help book event tickets and beauty appointments for users. The feature is available to people who opt into Search Labs in the United States, and it links directly to real-time booking pages so users can complete purchases.
How AI Mode Works
AI Mode lets you ask a multi-step request and have Google do the searching across many sites. For example, you can ask it to find two cheap standing tickets for a specific concert and prefer a certain price range. AI Mode will return a short list of options and then give links so you can finish the booking on the vendor site. The system is designed to gather real-time availability and present curated choices.
AI Mode can also book beauty and wellness appointments. You can describe the date, time, location, and preferred service, and the agent will search reservation systems to find matches. Google said the feature sits behind its experimental Search Labs program and that subscribers have higher usage limits.
Safety and reliability
Google says AI Mode is built on its core quality and safety systems. The tool is still an experiment, and it may make errors or miss options. Users should review vendor terms and verify details before finalizing purchases. Google keeps improving the feature, and it has added follow-up tools and session memory so longer tasks can stay organized.
How AI Mode grew
Google first added agent behaviors to AI Mode for making restaurant reservations. The company expanded those capabilities to cover more services over time, and now it has broadened the scope to events and beauty bookings. The product also ties into other Search Labs features like Canvas and Lens to help users gather and act on visual and research material.
