On the Free tier, Gemini can draft and edit emails when composing or replying. It cannot look at your live inbox or files. On the Paid tiers (like Google AI Plus/Pro or Workspace Business add-ons), Gemini is fully integrated inside your Gmail and Drive tabs, allowing it to read, summarize, and draft things directly from your account.
