What’s changing Building upon AI-powered features such as
help me write ,
image generation , and
more using Gemini in Google Docs, we’re excited to introduce a new way for users to create highly structured, styled, and visually-appealing documents with Gemini.
Today, we’re introducing
help me create , a new feature that lets you build a full document using content in Drive from a single, custom prompt. Simply click to create
at the top of a new document or go to
File > New > Help me create to get started. After describing the document you want to create, which includes the option to pull in content from your files using “@ filename", Gemini will transform your blank page into a long-form document with
cover images ,
in-line images , stylized text, tables, content from your Drive files, and more.
Who’s impacted End users
Why you’d use it Help me create is designed to help you get started with a first draft of your document. For example:
A marketing manager at a CPG company can create a launch plan for a new product using the following prompt: Create a marketing plan to support the launch of a new line of coffee flavors. Include timing, owners, deliverables, and create a cover image that shows different types of coffee. A manager can create a vision document to keep their team on track by telling Gemini: Create an overview document of our team charter and goals based on [Team charter brainstorm notes], and include a cover image that shows team bonding in an office setting. A small business owner specializing in eco-friendly products can create a proposal for a new client by typing: Create a proposal for my new client using the deliverables listed in [Customer meeting notes - November 30, 2024]. Outline the scope of work, pricing, and timing, and create a cover image that shows eco-friendly cleaning products and inline images. You can also choose from a variety of starter prompts to expedite the creation process for common document use cases. For example, you can select:
A roadmap for a product launch that includes strategy breakdowns and outlines key milestones, timelines, and initiatives (with the option to include images for each feature). A party planning checklist with a timeline of tasks, milestones, deadlines, and dependencies. A template for a 15-minute daily standup meeting with teammates that includes a table for each individual to leave their updates.
