Google Brings Gemini 3 to Gmail, Making Summaries and Writing Tools Free in U.S. Rollout

Most powerful tools stay paywalled, with AI Inbox restricted to trusted testers.

Overview

  • AI-generated conversation summaries in threads, Help Me Write and upgraded Suggested Replies are now free for Gmail users.
  • Asking natural-language questions of your inbox via AI Overviews and the Proofread tool requires Google AI Pro or Ultra.
  • An experimental AI Inbox that surfaces to-dos and priorities launches for a small group of U.S. testers before broader release.
  • The update starts today in English in the United States, with more regions and languages promised in the coming months.
  • Google says inbox data is processed in a privacy-protected environment and not used to train Gemini, though reporters note accuracy and privacy risks.
