Is Gemini for Google Workspace worth it?
It depends on your team. Gemini for Google Workspace is worth it if your team runs on Gmail and Google Docs and you want AI that's already included in what you pay for. The main drawback: an assistant inside documents more than a delegated teammate. It's from $7/user/mo as of November 2026 and ranks #8 of 18 on our rubric. If that isn't your team, look at Crevio, best for small teams that want one AI teammate working across the whole business.
Our verdict
For a Google Workspace team, Gemini is the best value here because it's already in the plan you pay for. Like Copilot, it's an assistant inside your documents more than a teammate you delegate whole jobs to, and it isn't built to act outside Google's apps.
Hire Gemini for Google Workspace if your team runs on Gmail and Google Docs and you want AI that's already included in what you pay for.
