What is Gemini?

Gemini is Google's multimodal AI assistant, deeply integrated with Google Search, Workspace (Docs, Gmail, Sheets), and Android. It can understand text, images, audio, and video in a single prompt, and pulls in real-time information from Google Search when needed.

How Gemini works

Gemini runs on Google's multimodal large language models, which are trained to process combinations of text, images, code, and audio together rather than treating each as a separate task. When connected to Google apps, it can read your Gmail, Docs, or Calendar (with permission) to answer questions grounded in your own data.

Is Gemini free?

A free tier is available to any Google account with generous daily usage of a solid model. The paid Google One AI Premium plan unlocks the most advanced Gemini models, higher limits, and deeper integration across Gmail, Docs, and other Workspace apps.
