    About the Tool

    What is Google Gemini?

    Google Gemini is Google's flagship multimodal AI assistant that seamlessly integrates across the entire Google Workspace ecosystem. Unlike standalone AI chatbots, Gemini works directly within the tools nonprofits already use daily—Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Meet, and Chat—providing AI-powered assistance without switching contexts or copying information between platforms. For nonprofits enrolled in Google for Nonprofits, Gemini is completely free for up to 2,000 users, making it one of the most accessible enterprise AI solutions available to charitable organizations. The free offering includes the standalone Gemini app with advanced features like Deep Research, NotebookLM for knowledge management, and Gemini integrated into Workspace applications with enterprise-grade security and data protections.

    Gemini's core capabilities include conversational AI for answering questions and brainstorming ideas, Help Me Write features in Gmail and Docs for drafting professional emails and documents, Deep Research that scans credible sources to generate comprehensive reports with citations, image generation and analysis for creating visuals and understanding documents, data analysis in Sheets with natural language queries and chart generation, presentation design assistance in Slides, meeting summaries and note-taking in Meet, and side panel integration across Workspace apps for contextual AI assistance. The platform supports file uploads (PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, images) for analysis and can maintain context across conversations. NotebookLM, included free for nonprofits, transforms organizational knowledge by generating Audio Overviews (podcast-like summaries), extracting insights from multiple sources, and creating interactive study guides from uploaded documents.

    For nonprofits, Google Gemini streamlines grant writing with research assistance and professional drafting, donor communications through personalized email composition, program reports by analyzing data and generating narrative summaries, volunteer coordination with automated scheduling and communication templates, fundraising campaigns through data-driven insights and content creation, board meeting preparation with document summarization and presentation design, social media content planning and caption writing, research synthesis for program development and impact assessment, and internal knowledge management with NotebookLM's source organization and team collaboration features. Organizations can access Gemini through the web interface at gemini.google.com, mobile apps for iOS and Android, or directly within Workspace applications via the side panel. The free nonprofit tier provides substantial daily usage limits suitable for most small to midsize organizations, with paid upgrade options available for larger teams needing advanced features like custom AI experts (Gems), higher usage limits, and Gemini integration in Google Meet recordings.
