We’re introducing Gemini-powered comment workflows in Google Docs to help you quickly understand and respond to collaborator feedback. These new features enable Gemini to read, summarize, and act on comments throughout your document, saving you time and streamlining collaboration.Synthesize and Q&A comments: Ask Gemini to summarize comment threads, extract key themes, or identify unresolved issues blocking your project. For example, you can say “Summarize all comments from Sarah” or “Based on the comments, what are the unresolved issues?”Add new comments: Ask Gemini to insert comments on your behalf, such as “Add a comment asking Roberta to verify the stats in the launch readiness section” or “Review this blog post as a copy editor, leaving comments focused on clarity and narrative flow.”Draft contextually grounded replies: Quickly respond to open comment threads with drafts generated by Gemini. For example, “Reply to the thread confirming that we’re approved to launch on April 1” or “Respond to Sarah’s question with a link to the latest CSAT deck from my Drive.”Suggest document edits: Ask Gemini to suggest updates to document content based on reviewer feedback, such as “Rewrite the introduction to address Roberta’s feedback.” Gemini will generate suggested edits for you to review, approve, and seamlessly apply to your document.You can access these capabilities by submitting queries from the bottom bar or the Gemini side panel in Google Docs. In addition, you may see proactive nudges to summarize comments when opening a new document or automatically generate a reply when clicking into an existing comment thread.Note: Gemini-powered comment workflows are currently only available for Google Docs users with edit access.Getting startedAdmins: These features are available by default if Gemini for Workspace in Drive is enabled.
