It doesn't exactly fit Google - there are definitely several products that are a Google thing, but many other aspects that diverge. I think not naming them has multiple benefits. 1) Less likely to get sued, 2) They want to be able to diverge where it makes sense for the story, 3) They don't want to distract viewers with the real companies (since people have preconceived notions and might be pulled out of the story if it's inconsistent).

In fact, I think I remember at least one episode where Hooli mentions Google, so in this universe, it's a new company.

It's a new company but it's a caricature of Google or Alphabet and Alphabet has a link to Hooli hidden on their page source https://abc.xyz/ as if they acknowledge it or as a joke.
