Parallel Announces Partnership with Google Cloud for Agentic Web Search on Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform

PALO ALTO, Calif., July 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Parallel (parallel.ai), the company building search infrastructure for the agentic web, today announced product integration with Google Cloud that brings Parallel's agentic web search to Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. Parallel is now natively available across the platform: callable in the Gemini Enterprise API, selectable as a grounding source in Studio, and available to subscribe through Google Cloud Marketplace with usage metered on companies'  existing Google Cloud invoice. Enterprises can build production-grade agents with web access out of the box, without stitching together search, models, and billing across separate vendors.

"AI agents will soon use the web far more than humans ever have, and need search infrastructure purpose-built for how they operate," said Parag Agrawal, Founder and CEO of Parallel. "We built Parallel to provide that infrastructure, and this partnership with Google Cloud brings it natively to where enterprises are building production agents."

"Enterprises want to build AI agents on an open platform with the best tools to deliver real value,"  said Matt Renner, President and Chief Revenue Officer, Google Cloud. "By adding Parallel as a grounding option on our Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, customers can now use their preferred live-web data stream to make Gemini smarter. This helps them smoothly take agents from prototype to deployment, all within their existing Google Cloud environment."

What is Grounding with Parallel Web Search?

This service combines Parallel's AI-native web index with Gemini's ability to decompose complex user prompts, distill insights from the most relevant search results, and generate highly accurate answers complete with precise citation annotations. Because Parallel Web Search runs on Google Cloud, enterprises benefit from a streamlined, secure integration directly within their existing cloud environment.
