Google has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave: AI Platforms, Q3 2026, and received the highest score in the Strategy category. The assessment comes as large technology suppliers compete for corporate spending on AI platforms that support both software development teams and non-technical users. Businesses are increasingly seeking systems that connect internal data, AI models and governance controls in one place as they expand their use of automated agents. Google said the recognition reflected its strategy of offering an open and integrated AI platform for the so-called agentic enterprise. "We believe this integrated approach is why Google has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave: AI Platforms, Q3 2026 report, and received the highest score in the Strategy category," it said.
