Gemini
Google's multimodal AI assistant. Deeply integrated with Google Workspace, Search, and real-time web data.
What is Gemini?
Gemini is Google's flagship AI assistant, built on their most advanced Gemini model family. Deeply integrated with Google's ecosystem — Search, Gmail, Docs, Sheets, YouTube, Maps, and Android — Gemini stands out as the AI that knows your Google world. It's multimodal from the ground up, processing text, images, audio, video, and code natively.

It can search your Gmail for specific emails, analyze data in your Google Sheets, draft documents in Google Docs, summarize YouTube videos, and plan trips using Google Maps — all through natural conversation. No other AI assistant has this level of access to the world's most-used productivity suite.
