Gemini
Google's assistant, with a direct line into Google's consumer apps.
EditorialDesk score 8.4 / 10
Gemini is Google's AI assistant at gemini.google.com. It is the consumer and workspace-facing assistant, separate from Vertex AI on Google Cloud. Google publishes subscription options alongside Google AI plans. Use it when a team already works in Google's apps and wants the assistant Google ships there.
The practical choice for people who already work in Google's apps. We rank it behind Claude and ChatGPT for writing quality, and ahead of add-on writers that only repackage a model.
