  • Google Drive now shows clickable nudges to encourage users to try Gemini AI features.
  • The nudges appear based on your Drive content and suggest actions like summarizing files or learning more about Gemini.
  • Eligible users include Google Workspace Business/Enterprise customers, Google One AI Premium subscribers, and legacy Gemini add-on holders.

Over the past year, Gemini has slowly become a familiar presence in Google’s ecosystem of apps, where it helps users draft emails, summarize content, and generate data insights. In Google Drive, Gemini already offers the ability to summarize one or multiple documents, extract facts from files, interact with PDFs, and even carry out contextual chats based on Drive folders.

Now, Google is introducing a new feature designed to make Gemini even more accessible in Drive. Starting March 24, the company started rolling out clickable “nudges” that appear at the top of the Drive homepage and inside folders. These nudges aim to guide users toward using Gemini’s tools more often, especially those who may not have explored its capabilities yet.
