Product preview

Overview

Gemini is Google's AI assistant, woven through the products billions of people already use: Search, Gmail, Docs, Android and Chrome. It is natively multimodal — text, images, audio and video all go in and come back out — and its long context window suits large research and analysis jobs.

For individuals it is the lowest-friction way to get AI help inside Google's apps; for Workspace customers, Gemini adds drafting, summarization and data analysis directly in Docs, Sheets and Gmail. Its live integration with Google Search grounds answers in fresh information.
