New refinement capabilities allow custom editing with Help me write in Gmail
Users can now edit and revise their email drafts in Gmail via the prompt bar, using custom refine instructions in Help me write. Previously the refines were limited to preset options like Polish, Formalize, and Shorten. Now if your first draft isn’t quite perfect, you can provide a precise follow-up prompt in your own words to further refine it, and even undo or redo any edits you make.
Whether you need to add a missing detail to the second line or include a deadline for your request, simply type the instruction and Gmail will instantly update the draft for you.
Getting started
- Admins: This feature is available by default if both Gemini for Workspace in Gmail is enabled and Workspace Intelligence access to Gmail is enabled.
- End users: This feature is available by default. Visit the Help Center article to learn more about drafting emails with Gemini in Gmail.
Rollout pace
- Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains: Rolling out now, with expected completion by July 20, 2026
