Getting Started with Gemini

Open Google's Gemini and use it on purpose: where every control sits, how to ask so the answer is usable, which of the three doors fits the question, and when free stops being enough.

What it covers

What your people will learn.

  • AI

You have already used Google's AI this week without deciding to, and got a fraction of what it can do. This is the course that makes it deliberate.

Gemini is one assistant reached through several doors. It has an app of its own, and the same assistant also sits inside Google Search, Gmail and Google Docs, already holding the material you are working on. Which door you come in by decides how much it can see, and that decides the answer.

The course starts at the screen itself: the five controls worth knowing, and getting in on the free plan with the Google account you already have. Then the two habits that separate a usable answer from filler, saying the whole task and steering the draft. Then the model picker, the three doors, and what to confirm before you act on a fast answer. Every click path, model name, plan and limit was checked against Google's own pages in October 2026.

You walk away able to route any question to the right door, ask it so the first answer is worth editing, and tell whether the free plan is actually in your way.

Who it's for

People who have never opened it: you keep meeting Google's AI by accident and want to use it on purpose.

Anyone who tried it once and stopped: the first answer was generic, and nobody mentioned that the first answer is a draft.

Anyone unsure what they are paying for: this settles whether free is enough for your week, and what the paid steps actually buy.
