🔷 What are Gemini Gems?

Gemini Gems are custom AI assistants built on Google's Gemini 1.5 Pro mode—the same powerful multimodal model that understands text, images, code, audio, and more.

With Gems, you can:

  • Create a personalized AI agent (a "Gem") using natural language.
  • Assign it tasks like "Summarize my unread emails daily" or "Rewrite blog posts in a casual tone."
  • Use it directly inside Gmail, Google Docs, and Drive!

Think of it as ChatGPT custom GPTs, but inside Google's productivity suite.


📍 Where are Gemini Gems Showing Up?

  • 📧 Gmail:

Smart summarization of long threads.

One-click replies using context.

Custom gems for tasks like: “Organize all emails from clients weekly.”

  • 📄 Google Docs:

AI-powered document generation & rewriting.

Gems that help with formatting, grammar, tone adjustments, etc.

You could say: “Help me write a job application letter in a formal tone.”

  • 📁 Google Drive:

File summarization (especially PDFs, Docs, etc.)

Smart search using natural language like: “Show me my project files from March.”


🔍 Why Is This A Big Deal?

  • 🧠 Built on Gemini 1.5 Pro:

This model can hold over 1 million tokens of context, which means it can analyze long documents, entire chat histories, or massive data files without losing context. Thats significantly more than GPT-4's standard limits.

  • 📌 No Coding Needed:

You can create these AI assistants with just plain English. No programming, no technical setup—just describe what you want it to do.

  • ⚙️ Workspace Integration:

It's all happening inside apps you already use. No switching tabs, no copying and pasting into other tools.


🌐 Who Gets Access?

Right now, Gemini Gems are being rolled out to:

  • Gemini for Workspace customers
  • Google One AI Premium Plan users ($19.99/month in the US; Indian pricing may vary)
