Help me write in Google Docs now available in four additional languages
Monday, April 7, 2025
What’s changing
In 2023, we introduced Help me write, an AI-powered writing feature that helps get you started by writing something new in Google Docs or quickly refining existing text. Last May, we rolled out the ability to use Help me write in Spanish and Portuguese and today, we’re excited to announce that Help me write is now available in four additional languages:
- Japanese
- Italian
- French
- German
- Simply type a few words describing a topic you’d like to write about and a draft will be instantly generated for you. You then have a few options to adjust the results’ length, tone, or format.
- Select specific text and refine it to catch typos, polish word choice, and ensure a smooth, natural flow. Plus you can adjust the text’s length, tone, or even use your own prompt to modify it.

Now, you can use Help me write in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian, French, and German.
