What is Google Gemini for Workspace?
The Google equivalent of Microsoft's Copilot: AI folded into the apps rather than bolted beside them, grounded in your organisation's own mail and documents. Now bundled into Workspace business plans rather than sold as a separate add-on.
The decision here is almost never made on merit. If your business runs on Gmail, this is the tool; if it runs on Outlook, Copilot is. Both are grounded in your own content, both publish a clear no-training commitment, and both are priced per user per month in a way that punishes buying seats for people who will use it twice.
We are not quoting an entry price. Google’s Workspace pricing page mixes promotional and standard rates in a way that makes any single figure misleading within weeks, and a wrong price is worse than none. The link goes to the page itself.

Does Google Gemini for Workspace train AI models on your data?
No
Google states: "Workspace does not use customer data for training models without customer's prior permission or instruction", and separately that "Your chats and uploaded files in Gemini app won't be reviewed by human reviewers or otherwise used to train generative AI models without your permission." One carve-out worth knowing: "Your organization's file sharing and data region settings do not apply to data in Gemini Notebook." Read on 29 August 2026.

- Businesses already on Google Workspace
