Expanding Gemini in Gmail to more Google Workspace users

We’re expanding the availability of some Gemini in Gmail features to more Google Workspace users aged 18 and older. Previously available to consumer accounts and specific Workspace editions, these tools are now being brought to the core Workspace experience by expanding availability to all Workspace users 18 years and older to help users with a school or work account manage their communications more efficiently.

Specifically, eligible users will now have access to:

• AI Overview conversation summaries: AI Overview at the top of long email threads synthesize key points and replies in the conversation.
• Help me write (non-personalized): Generate complete email drafts or refine existing text based on simple prompts, such as “Draft a professional follow-up and thank-you for the interview.

Managing an overflowing inbox and composing refined replies can be a significant hurdle for educators, students, and professionals. These features act as an intelligent assistant, removing the friction of manual sorting and drafting.
