Gemini — Google's multimodal AI assistant — text, image, audio, and video reasoning across Google Workspace. Gemini is natively multimodal and can process text, images, audio, and video inputs in a single conversation.
About Gemini
Gemini is Google's multimodal AI assistant — it reasons across text, image, audio, and video, and plugs into Google Workspace.
Two things set it apart: native multimodality (text, images, audio, and video in one conversation) and direct integration with Workspace apps like Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and Drive. It's available on web, iOS, and Android.
It fits people already in Google's ecosystem who want AI inside their existing apps, with a free tier to start. Caveats: advanced features and the more capable models need a Google One AI Premium subscription, the deepest integrations are Google-only (lock-in for Workspace users), and the free tier has usage limits.
It's the Google-ecosystem assistant next to ChatGPT and Claude.
