Dynamic, always-up-to-date file sources for You.com Agents (e.g., Google Docs live sync)
Hello You.com team, I’d like to request a new capability for You.com Agents: dynamic file sources that stay up to date without having to delete and re-upload files. Current challenge: When I attach files (including from Google Drive or OneDrive), they are ingested as static copies (often PDFs). Any edits made later in the original document are not reflected in the agent, which forces me to remove and re-upload the file to keep the agent current. Proposed enhancement: Allow agents to link to cloud documents (e.g., Google Docs) and, on each use or at a configurable interval, check for relevant updates and refresh the ingested content automatically. A “Refresh” button and/or an automatic sync schedule (e.g., on run, hourly, daily) would be ideal. Webhook or event-based sync (when the document changes) would be even better. Provide version awareness (last synced timestamp, change summary) and granular controls (which sections to index, max update frequency, access scopes). Key benefits: Always-current knowledge for task-specific agents without manual file maintenance. Better reliability for workflows that depend on evolving documents (policies, specs, project notes, SOPs). Reduced operational overhead and fewer errors from out-of-date sources. Representative use cases: Project documentation and SOPs that change frequently and must drive accurate, up-to-date agent responses. Research notes and knowledge bases in Google Docs that need to remain synchronized for ongoing analysis. Team environments where multiple collaborators update shared documents, and agents should reflect those updates immediately or on a schedule. Security and implementation considerations: Use OAuth-scoped access (read-only) with clear consent and revocation. Allow per-document permissions and explicit linking rather than broad-drive indexing. Provide admin controls and audit logs for enterprise/teams. Thank you for considering this enhancement. It would significantly increase the utility of You.com Agents for dynamic, collaborative workflows. I’m happy to share more details or participate in user testing. Best regards, Jordi Riera

Why I am discontinuing with You.Com - ARI workflow
I have a Team account with you.com , and while I find it superior in many ways to Gemini Pro and Perplexity for research, it has a significant commercial flaw: ARI. Under the Team, which I had hoped to extend to other analysts in my team, IO get 5 ARI generations in a month. However... when these generations return clearly incorrect data, and I request a search to fix that information, a second ARI credit is used, even when the requirement is relatively minor. A case in point is a research study into ICT project costs, where the staff size of the companies examined was found to be ridiculous. For example, an organisation with tens of thousands of staff was listed as having just 5 staff. Requesting the staff sizes of the listed organisations to be re-researched incurs a full ARI credit. The result is that in practical terms, you.com is not a viable research service: at best it can start a search, but I end up needing to move flawed reports to other services. While it is possible to move reports into other streams of prompts, that provides no research productivity compared to keeping everything inside Gemini or using other AI workflows. I wanted to provide this feedback so that you can reconsider the way the ARI workflow is deployed. A simple fix would be to automatically switch from ARI to a general prompt once a report has been completed. A more effective solution would be to address the ridiculously low monthly research threshold. I'd be happy to pay a higher price, or a per-research call, but not with the current workflow.
