Google Gemini Can Now Write Better Emails Than You—Here's How to Use It

by

Google's Help Me Write has two new features that will make composing emails faster than ever.

Help Me Write is an AI feature powered by Google Gemini that originally appeared in Gmail and offered suggestions on how to complete sentences. It was later extended to Chrome earlier this year and includes writing suggestions and rewrites. It looks like more updates are coming for some Gmail users.

In a new blog post about Workspace updates, Google announced two new features. The first is a new option for Help Me Write that lets you polish up email drafts on the web and mobile. When using Gemini to polish up their emails, users can choose from three options: Formalize, Elaborate, and Shorten. These new options can be added to drafts to help you polish up your email and save you time. For example, you can type a draft of what you want to say, and then Gemini can turn it into a formal draft with a single click.

The second new feature focuses on two new shortcuts for Help Me Write and Refine My Draft. On mobile, when an email draft is empty, the Help Me Write option now appears in the body of the email and expands when you tap on it. Meanwhile, the Refine My Draft shortcut appears when an email draft contains at least 12 words and is located below the email content. Users can select the option by swiping their finger across the screen and will be able to refine, formalize, elaborate or shorten their draft, or easily compose and write a new draft.

It’s worth noting that these options are enabled by default and there are currently no admin controls for this feature. However, all of these features are currently available on web browsers, Android, and iOS for Google Workspace customers with the Gemini Business and Enterprise, Gemini Education, and Education Premium add-ons, and users with Google One AI Premium.
