Google is expanding Search Live globally which was teased during the event last year, to all languages and locations where AI Mode is available.

Intent

I need it when

Communicate with Search in their preferred language across 200+ countries

Search Live's multilingual Gemini 3.1 Flash Live model delivers natural conversations in users' preferred languages, available globally in all regions where AI Mode is offered, supporting over 200 countries and territories.

Seamlessly transition between visual search and real-time conversation

Users can access Search Live directly from Google Lens by tapping the Live option at the bottom of the screen, enabling back-and-forth conversations about what they see in the real world without switching apps.

Get real-time help by asking questions aloud instead of typing

Search Live enables voice-based interactive conversations with Search using Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, allowing users to ask questions out loud and receive audio responses, then continue with follow-up questions without typing.

Get visual context-aware help by showing the camera what they need assistance with

Search Live's camera feature lets users point their device at objects or situations (e.g., shelving installation) to provide visual context, enabling Search to see what the camera sees and offer relevant suggestions with web links.
