Gemini Gmail Email Summarisation

Gemini in Gmail can generate summaries of emails and email conversations using message content available within the user's Gmail environment.

Recorded characteristics

Function
Gemini in Gmail can summarise individual emails and email conversations, identify key information and generate action-item summaries from email content.
Data access
The summarisation capability uses email content available within the user's Gmail environment. Gemini in Gmail also supports retrieval from other permitted Workspace sources for other capabilities, but those broader retrieval functions should not be attributed to this email-summarisation record.

Limitations and uncertainty
Availability varies by account type, plan, language, region and platform. Gemini can perform additional Gmail and Google Workspace functions beyond email summarisation, but those capabilities are outside the scope of this record.
