Gemini AI features now included in Google Workspace subscriptions

In January 2025 we started adding new AI features designed to improve productivity and innovation in organizations with Google Workspace Business and Enterprise editions. Previously these features were included in Google Workspace with Gemini add-ons.

As part of this transition, the following add-ons are no longer available for purchase:

  • Gemini Business–Legacy
  • Gemini Enterprise–Legacy
  • AI Meetings and Messaging
  • AI Security

The Google AI Pro for Education add-on, previously Gemini Education and Gemini Education Premium, remains available to educational organizations.

Review the Google Workspace blog announcement to learn more about these changes.

Which AI features are coming to my organization?

The AI features available to your organization depend on Google Workspace edition. Highlights include:

  • Gemini in the side panel of Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, and Chat—Get AI assistance directly in the flow of your work.
  • Help me write in Gmail and Docs—Quickly compose professional emails and documents.
  • Take notes for me in Meet—Automatically capture meeting notes so you can focus on the conversation.
  • Gemini—Chat with Google’s next-gen AI to kickstart learning, brainstorming, and planning with the Gemini app on your laptop or mobile device. Use Gems to build a team of AI experts to help with repeatable tasks or tackle complex projects — including coding, deep research, and data analysis.
  • NotebookLM —Accelerate team knowledge sharing by uploading your sources to get instant insights and podcast-like Audio Overviews. This enhanced version offers notebook customization, advanced sharing and usage analytics, and increased Audio Overviews, queries, notebooks, and sources.
  • Gemini in AppSheet—Use Gemini for App Creation to build apps by describing a business process or idea in natural language. Use Gemini in AppSheet Solutions to add AI tasks in automations to extract and categorize information from images and documents.

Can I control access to these features?

Your existing Google Workspace data protections are automatically applied to AI features.

How does Google protect my data?

Google Workspace has long shared robust privacy commitments to protect user data and prioritize privacy. Generative AI doesn’t change these commitments — it reaffirms their importance. This article is intended to help our business, education, and public sector customers understand how we use their data and keep it secure when using Google Workspace with Gemini.

Your privacy is our priority

We want to be completely clear that generative AI does not change our foundational privacy protections that give you choice and control over your data:

  • Your interactions with Gemini stay within your organization. Gemini does not share your content outside your organization without your permission.
  • Your existing Google Workspace protections are automatically applied. Gemini brings the same enterprise-grade security as the rest of Google Workspace.
  • Your content is not used for any other customers. Your content is not human reviewed or used for Generative AI model training outside your domain without permission.
