Where we are ahead

Capabilities where SmartStaff.io does more than Google Gemini Enterprise.

  • Per-run plan drafted before any work executes

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Does each execution produce a plan artefact before the first unit of work runs?

  • Plan visible to a human before execution

    YesSmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can a person read that plan before the work starts?

    'Transparent thinking' (GA 2026-07-27) 'shares its real-time reasoning and planning in the user interface before calling tools' — display only. PlanReActPlanner streams PLANNING and ACTION in one continuous turn.

  • Plan editable by a human before execution

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can a person rewrite, reorder or drop steps and then approve?

  • Confidence score computed structurally, not self-reported

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a plan/run confidence score derived from checkable structure rather than asked of the model?

  • Human feedback automatically changes later runs

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Does a correction on a finished run alter behaviour on subsequent runs without a human editing a prompt?

    Feedback service (Preview, 2026-07-29) is to 'collect, analyze, and manage end-user qualitative feedback… troubleshoot your agents'. No statement that later runs change.

  • Learned rules are scoped and human-auditable

    PartlySmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can a person list what the system has learned, see where it was applied, and retire it?

  • External AI client can clear a human gate over MCP

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can Claude/ChatGPT approve or reject pending work through the MCP surface?

  • Trigger: platform-issued inbound email address

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Does the platform mint an address that starts a run, as opposed to polling a mailbox you own?

  • Self-hosting / customer-controlled deployment

    PartlySmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can the customer run it in infrastructure they control?

  • EU data residency for application data

    YesSmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a documented EU location for the customer's stored data?

  • Czech-language product UI

    YesSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is the product interface available in Czech?

    No Czech — the Google Cloud docs locale switcher itself omits Czech. Czech is supported at model level only.

Where Google Gemini Enterprise is ahead

We are not going to pretend these do not exist. If one of them decides your case, buy theirs.

  • Per-action (tool call) approval

    NoSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can an individual tool call be gated mid-execution?

  • Process definition versioned (history + rollback)

    NoSmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there version history with a way back to a previous version?

    Split by tier: Agent Designer has no documented versioning and editing is destructive; Agent Runtime has 'immutable revisions of deployed agents, and split traffic'.

  • Staging/prod environments or git sync

    NoSmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a promotion path between environments, or git-backed source control?

  • Prebuilt agent catalogue (personas, not workflow templates)

    PartlySmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can you adopt a ready-made agent persona, as opposed to a workflow template?

  • Trigger: schedule / cron

    NoSmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can a run start on a schedule?

    'You must manually refresh your schedules every 14 days', maximum 5-minute delay, 'only supported in multi-region locations'.

  • Trigger: Slack / Teams

    NoSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can work be started from a chat platform?

  • Non-interactive API credential (API keys)

    PartlySmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a machine credential, so server-to-server callers need not hold a user session?

  • SOC 2 Type II

    NoSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a SOC 2 Type II report?

  • ISO 27001

    NoSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is the vendor ISO 27001 certified (not merely 'aligned' or engaged)?

Where we are level

Both platforms answer these the same way.

  • Process definition separate from execution

    PartlySmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a durable process definition distinct from an individual run of it?

  • Gate is ON by default, not opt-in

    YesSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Out of the box, does a human have to approve something before side effects happen?

    Strictest default in the field: 'By default, all calls to any action require confirmation from the user, because Gemini Enterprise assumes that any operation is potentially destructive and can mutate data.'

  • Final-output approval

    NoSmartStaff.ioNoGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a review gate on the deliverable before it is sent?

  • Multi-agent team with role-specialised members

    YesSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is a team of differently-roled agents a first-class product concept?

  • Per-agent knowledge base (RAG)

    YesSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can knowledge be attached to an individual agent and retrieved at run time?

  • MCP client

    YesSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can it consume external MCP servers as tools?

  • MCP server

    YesSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Does it expose itself over MCP to external AI clients?

  • Run audit trail / event timeline

    YesSmartStaff.ioYesGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a per-run record of what happened, step by step?

  • Documented control over LLM inference region

    PartlySmartStaff.ioPartlyGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is there a documented way to constrain where the prompt is processed, or to bring your own model?

    Real EU machine-learning processing exists, but Gemini 3.1 Pro has neither residency nor MLP in the EU, Gemini 3.6 Flash is global-only, and Search grounding is global-only. Only Gemini 3.5 Flash is fully EU-supported, and Google's docs recommend global unless you have a regulatory reason.

Not verified

We could not confirm these from Google Gemini Enterprise's own material. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence — ask them.

  • Diff between versions

    NoSmartStaff.ioNot verifiedGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can two versions be compared side by side?

  • MCP server with OAuth 2.1

    YesSmartStaff.ioNot verifiedGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Is that MCP server protected by OAuth 2.1 with spec discovery, rather than a static bearer key?

  • Trigger: webhook / API

    YesSmartStaff.ioNot verifiedGoogle Gemini Enterprise

    Can an outside system start a run over HTTP?

Every run drafts a plan you approve before any work happens. The free plan needs no card.
