Google Gemini
Google’s AI assistant, deeply embedded across Gmail, Docs, and Android
At a glance
Google Workspace users wanting AI built directly into Gmail and Docs
Our take
Gemini’s biggest advantage isn’t raw model quality — it’s distribution: it’s built directly into Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and Android, so if your professional life already runs on Google Workspace, Gemini is simply already there. We think this makes it the practical default for Workspace-heavy teams even when other models edge it out on pure benchmarks. The free tier bundled with a Google account covers plenty of casual use, and Gemini Advanced (bundled into Google One AI Premium) adds the more capable models and higher usage limits. It can feel like a secondary citizen compared to dedicated AI-first apps in terms of interface polish.
