The complete curriculum for Gemini — across Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Gmail, Slides), in the standalone Gemini app, and through NotebookLM. The integrations Google built into your existing tools.
Google's agent story after May 2026: Gemini Agent (Mariner absorbed), Gems, Deep Research, NotebookLM, and the Workspace integrations that actually work.
Start here — real value before you ever upgrade.
Drafting, smart replies, summarizing threads, finding key info across your inbox. The Gmail workflow that uses Gemini's context-awareness for real time savings.
Google's June 2026 wave, sorted out honestly: Gemini Omni for video, Deep Think for hard reasoning, and Nano Banana image generation inside Gemini Live. What each is for and which to reach for when.
Gemini 3 Pro Image (aka Nano Banana Pro): real text inside images, edit photos from a sentence, Search-grounded accuracy. What it does, what it costs, and how to try it free.
Free, AI Pro, Ultra, and the API — plus what's already bundled with Google One, so you don't end up paying twice.
The everyday Workspace workflows — included in both paid tiers.
The "Help me write" workflows, refining drafts, custom tone, generating outlines, fact-checking against your other docs. Real document workflows, not toy examples.
Smart Fill, formula generation, data cleaning, chart creation, analyzing trends. The Sheets workflow that closes the gap with Excel + Copilot.
Setting up notebooks with source documents, asking questions across PDFs, generating study guides and podcasts. The free Google tool every researcher should know.
Loading entire codebases, long documents, video transcripts. The use cases where Gemini's 1M+ context window genuinely changes what's possible.
Building Gems for specific tasks, integrating with Google Workspace data, sharing with your team. Like Custom GPTs, with Workspace integration.
Setting up Deep Research workflows, refining the research prompt, evaluating the output, citing sources properly. The feature that competes directly with Perplexity.
The I/O 2026 wave: the Daily Brief morning digest, the Gemini Spark personal agent, and the 3.5 Flash/Pro split — what each does and when to use it.
Agents and the deeper Workspace builds — exclusive to Pro+.
Gemini in Slides for presentations, Meet for live note-taking, mobile workflows, integration with Calendar and Tasks. The advanced curriculum.
In May 2026 Google consolidated its agent story. Project Mariner was retired as a standalone product; its technology now powers Gemini Agent — the unified agentic mode inside the Gemini app.
Gems are Google's answer to Custom GPTs. They're custom Gemini agents with system prompts, instructions, and access to your Workspace data.
Gemini's integration across Google Workspace is broad but uneven. Some apps got real agentic capability; others got 'help me write' buttons that don't change what's possible.
Spark turns Gemini from a chatbot into a worker: Tasks, Skills and Schedules that run multi-step jobs across your Google apps on a schedule. The mental model and the workflows that pay off.
All 16 Gemini lessons are available today — plus every other tool track, the hands-on builds, and the playground. Founding pricing — $9/mo Pro, $19/mo Pro+ — locks your rate for life: the price you join at never goes up.
