Google Gemini gains website builder, PDF filler, Gmail search, voice drafting and slide creation tools
Google added five new Gemini features that let users create websites, fill PDFs, search Gmail with AI, draft Docs by voice and generate Slides decks, extending the assistant across Workspace applications.
Google expanded its Gemini AI assistant with five new capabilities aimed at Workspace users. The most visible addition is a website-creation tool that lets users upload images, a logo and product details, after which Gemini builds a storefront or landing page in about a minute and can export the result to Google Sites. The generated pages retain the default navigation bar and host images in webp format, requiring users to make manual adjustments if they wish to remove the bar.
A PDF-filling feature enables Gemini to populate form fields from data in connected Workspace apps. In testing, the assistant completed an invoice by extracting the recipient’s information from Gmail threads, though the finished file must be downloaded and attached to an email manually. A separate PDF tool offers sharing controls and access notifications.
Gmail receives an “Ask Gmail” bar that replaces the standard search field and returns AI-generated summaries of email threads. The feature works well for narrow, person-specific queries but may not produce overviews for broader requests.
On iPhone, a “create with Gemini” button in Google Docs allows users to dictate prompts and receive drafted documents, such as video-concept outlines for a merchandise launch. Users can set source preferences to align output with specific apps or web content.
Google Slides can now generate complete presentations from a single prompt, using existing Drive files as style references. The assistant asks for audience, style, length and core topics before building the deck, but images must be replaced manually after generation.
The new tools sit atop Gemini’s broader model lineup, which includes Flash-Lite, Flash, Pro and Ultra tiers, as well as Gemini 4 Argon for complex tasks and Gemini 4 Carbon for select partners. Additional workflow automation features, such as scheduled actions and reusable “skills,” are also available, though Google cautions that outputs should be reviewed for accuracy.
Google’s rollout coincides with the upcoming launch of the XREAL AURA augmented-reality headset, which runs Android XR and Gemini, offering voice-driven interactions in a mixed-reality environment.
Analysts note that while the features demonstrate fast, polished output, the remaining manual steps and occasional inaccuracies mean users will still need to verify results before sharing them within organizations.
