Conversational AI for writing, research, and coding
Google Gemini
Google's multimodal AI assistant across Search and Workspace
Overview
What Gemini Does
Gemini is Google's family of AI models and the assistant built on top of them. It can chat, write, summarize, analyze images and help with research, and the same models power AI features across Google products.
Workspace Integration
Inside Google Workspace, Gemini drafts in Docs, summarizes and replies in Gmail, builds formulas in Sheets and generates slides. For teams standardized on Google, that keeps AI assistance where the work already happens.
Multimodal and Research
Because it reads text and images together and can pull in up-to-date information, Gemini handles quick research, comparison and explanation tasks alongside content drafting.
Who It Fits
The best fit is individuals and businesses already on Google Workspace, plus anyone who wants a capable free assistant. Paid tiers add higher limits and Workspace-wide deployment.

Gemini makes the most sense for teams already on Google Workspace, where its in-app assistance is the differentiator rather than raw model quality.
