Its mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Alphabet operates through Google Services (search, advertising, consumer products), Google Cloud (enterprise cloud computing and AI infrastructure), and Other Bets (innovative moonshot projects). It dominates digital advertising, online search, mobile ecosystems, video streaming, and is aggressively expanding in artificial intelligence and cloud services, integrating advanced Gemini AI models across platforms.

  2. YouTube for video sharing, streaming, creator monetization, and premium subscriptions
