    Understanding Gemini.

    Gemini is google's AI that doubles its performance every 3 months. Starting at €20/month. Built for B2B consultants and content creators.

    Estimated time saving: 7h/month.

    • Prototype AIFree Google AI Studio.
    • Integrate AI into Google Workspace workflows.

    Pros and cons

    What Gemini does especially well — and the limits to anticipate.

    Pros

    • Free with no time limit.
    • Seamless Workspace integration.
    • Solid performance, competitive API pricing.
    • Real-time web access built-in.

    Cons

    • Less mature than OpenAI/Anthropic for dev.
    • API historically less stable.
    • Google Workspace required for full value.

    Gemini: when it makes sense.

    Gemini is worth it for Google-native teams; for other stacks, Anthropic/OpenAI are more standard.

    Keep if

    You use Google Workspace (Gmail, Docs).. You want free consumer AI.

    Gemini becomes worthwhile when
    • You use it at least once a week
    • The monthly cost (€20) is small next to the time it saves you

    Challenge if

    You prefer Anthropic or OpenAI.. You need very long context in production.

    Gemini becomes too expensive when
    • You use it less than once a month
    • gemini (free) already covers the essentials for occasional use

    Our verdict on Gemini.

    Why this verdict

    Very good

    Gemini is fairly easy to replace with an alternative, a free tier to test before paying, clearly documented use cases.
