Where Google Gemini fits
Consider it when your work already involves Google accounts and supported services.
Check before you choose
Check account type, connected services and data permissions before using work documents.
Find the right edition
Start with the destination for your device or the publisher's website. Use the current requirements and terms there to confirm the edition you need.
Compare the workflow
Start by deciding whether your task needs a hosted service or a model running on your own hardware. A chat assistant, a code editor and a local runtime solve different problems even when they use similar models.
