Google Workspace

Google Workspace is Google's cloud-based productivity suite that includes Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Meet, and more. Over the past year, Google has layered in a growing stack of AI tools—some built-in, some powered by Gemini (its new family of AI models). These additions go beyond spelling and grammar. They help with writing, summarizing, searching, organizing, and even generating media.

Here's what’s currently available.
