Gemini in Gmail

Email drafts, summaries of long threads and plain-language inbox search right in Gmail

Gemini in Gmail drafts a reply from a few words, summarizes a long thread in a few points, finds emails by description (for example, all invoices from a supplier for the quarter) and suggests replies in the style of your earlier emails. It works on the web and in the mobile app. Useful for payment reminders, replies to clients and business correspondence. Included in Google AI Pro and Workspace plans with Gemini.

Pitfalls to watch at work

• The draft is built from the whole thread: before sending, check that it does not retell internal discussions the recipient should not see

• In a personal account, email containing client personal data passes through Google without a corporate data processing agreement
