Gmail web now allows you to write amazing emails thanks to Gemini

Google has launched several artificial intelligence features in the web version of Gmail, allowing users to draft and polish emails with the help of Gemini. This update comes months after similar features were introduced on mobile devices.

With this expansion, users can now benefit both on mobile and web from the “Help Me Write” feature, a writing assistant that allows you to create emails from scratch by simply giving it simple instructions.

In addition to “Help Me Write,” Google has included a new feature called “Polish” both on the web and mobile, replacing the old “Refine My Draft.” Although its functionality remains the same, the “Polish” option is automatically activated when a draft of more than 12 words is detected, helping to improve style and clarity easily. With this change, Google aims to streamline the process and facilitate more effective writing in daily life.

The “Polish” function uses Gemini’s AI, refining email drafts and allowing them to be evaluated before inserting them directly into the body of the message. Once the improvement is finished, the user can choose the “Replace” option to easily and quickly include the polished text in their email.

In the mobile version, shortcuts for these functions have been enabled, so that “Help Me Write” appears in empty drafts, while “Polish” is suggested for longer texts. Previously, “Refine My Draft” offered specific options like Polish, Formalize, Elaborate, Shorten, and Write a draft. Now, Google has integrated the “Polish” option into the writing process to simplify the workflow.

The rollout of this update has already begun for Google Workspace users with Gemini Business, Enterprise, and Education accounts, or Google One AI Premium subscribers, and will be completed within these two weeks.
