Streamline collaboration in Google Docs with Gemini-powered comment workflows

Google introducing Gemini-powered comment workflows in Google Docs to help you quickly understand and respond to collaborator feedback. These new features enable Gemini to read, summarize, and act on comments throughout your document, saving you time and streamlining collaboration.

Synthesize and Q&A comments: Ask Gemini to summarize comment threads, extract key themes, or identify unresolved issues blocking your project. For example, you can say “Summarize all comments from Sarah” or “Based on the comments, what are the unresolved issues?”
Add new comments: Ask Gemini to insert comments on your behalf, such as “Add a comment asking Roberta to verify the stats in the launch readiness section” or “Review this blog post as a copy editor, leaving comments focused on clarity and narrative flow.”
Draft contextually grounded replies: Quickly respond to open comment threads with drafts generated by Gemini. For example, “Reply to the thread confirming that google approved to launch on April 1” or “Respond to Sarah’s question with a link to the latest CSAT deck from my Drive.”
Suggest document edits: Ask Gemini to suggest updates to document content based on reviewer feedback, such as “Rewrite the introduction to address Roberta’s feedback.” Gemini will generate suggested edits for you to review, approve, and seamlessly apply to your document.

You can access these capabilities by submitting queries from the bottom bar or the Gemini side panel in Google Docs. In addition, you may see proactive nudges to summarize comments when opening a new document or automatically generate a reply when clicking into an existing comment thread.

Note: Gemini-powered comment workflows are currently only available for Google Docs users with edit access.

Admins: These features are available by default if Gemini for Workspace in Drive is enabled. Visit the Help Center to learn more about managing access to Gemini features in Google Workspace.

Google Workspace has integrated Gemini-powered comment workflows directly into Google Docs to streamline how teams manage, review, and act on collaborator feedback. This update transforms Gemini from a standard writing assistant into a collaborative partner capable of reading, summarizing, and executing tasks based on document comment threads. [1, 2, 3]

Core Capabilities of Gemini Comment Workflows

Synthesize and Q&A Comments: Gemini can scan lengthy comment threads to extract primary themes, summarize feedback from specific users, or flag unresolved blockers. For example, you can prompt it to “Summarize all comments from Sarah” or “What are the unresolved issues blocking this project?” [1, 4]
Add New Comments on Your Behalf: You can instruct Gemini to leave precise comments across the text or perform structural reviews. Examples include, “Add a comment asking Roberta to verify the stats in this section” or “Review this blog post as a copy editor, leaving comments focused on clarity.” [1, 5]
Draft Contextually Grounded Replies: Instead of typing out responses manually, you can use Gemini to draft replies aligned with your intent and files. You can command it to “Reply to the thread confirming we are approved to launch” or “Respond to Sarah’s question with a link to the latest CSAT deck from my Drive.” [1]
Suggest Immediate Document Edits: Gemini can instantly translate reviewer feedback into live content changes. Giving a prompt like “Rewrite the introduction to address Roberta’s feedback” allows you to review, approve, and apply the AI-generated edits seamlessly. [1]

How to Access and Use the Features

Open the Tool: Launch your document on Google Docs. [5, 6]
Activate Gemini: Click Ask Gemini found in the bottom bar or open the Gemini side panel. [1, 5]
Use Proactive Nudges: Look out for automatic shortcut prompts. Gemini will proactively nudge you to summarize feedback when you open a heavily commented file, or offer automated draft replies when you click an existing comment thread. [1]
Review and Apply: For generated comments or text changes, review the AI output and click Comment, Reply, or Insert to finalize the action. [5, 7]

Availability and Prerequisites

Access Level: This feature is strictly available to Google Docs users who hold edit access to the document.

Expanded language support for Gemini in Google Docs

Expanded language support for Gemini in Google Docs

Earlier this year, we introduced new Gemini in Google Docs capabilities that help you move from a blank page to a finished document faster than ever.

We are now expanding support for these features to 11 more languages, including Mandarin, Dutch, Malay, Hebrew, Polish, Turkish, Czech, Indonesian, Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian. These new additions join our previously supported languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, French, Korean, German, and Italian.

Reimagined Gemini experience in Docs

With this update, Google Docs offers a centralized place to generate, write, and refine your documents with Gemini. Powered by Workspace Intelligence, Gemini leverages data across Drive, Gmail, Chat, and the web to provide personalized, context-aware assistance.

The upgraded Help me create experience enables you to generate relevant, fully formatted first drafts that synthesize information from your files, emails, chat, and the web.
With Help me write, simply prompt Gemini from the bottom bar or side panel to make edits across your doc, or select text to focus Gemini’s attention. Gemini’s suggested edits are only visible to you until you approve them.
Match writing style helps maintain a consistent tone and style across your entire doc, no matter how many people are working on it.
With Match doc format, Gemini can mirror a source document to generate content that adheres to the original’s formatting (e.g., fonts and colors) and structural elements (e.g., headings and table columns).

To generate new docs from scratch, open a new doc, enter your prompt, and click submit. To edit existing docs, simply hover over the spark near the bottom of your doc and type a prompt in the bottom bar.

Getting started

Admins: These features are available by default if Gemini for Workspace in Drive is enabled. Note that enabling Workspace Intelligence expands the range of supported use cases.
End users: You must have Workspace smart features enabled to use these features. Visit the Help Center to learn more about creating personalized documents with Gemini in Google Docs.
