Expanding access to select Google Vids features for all users

Google Vids is designed to help users share information and tell stories through video. To help more users create professional-quality content, we are making three features in Vids available to all users, regardless of what Workspace edition they use. These features include: 

  • Read-along teleprompter: Allows you to read from a script that automatically scrolls as you speak, helping you maintain eye contact with the camera and deliver a more natural performance. 
  • Transcript trim: Provides a simple way to edit your video by deleting words or silences directly from the video’s transcript. 
  • Styled captions: Lets you choose from a variety of visual styles to render captions directly on your video, making your content more accessible and engaging. 
Previously, these features were primarily available to paid Workspace users. This change ensures that users on Workspace editions currently on a promotional period—including Business Starter, Enterprise Starter, Google for Nonprofits, Education Plus, and the Teaching and Learning add-on—will maintain access to these features even after their promotion ends in May 2026. Additionally, users on Workspace editions such as Frontline and Education Fundamentals now have access to these essential video editing features for the first time.

Proofread your email with Gemini in Gmail

When you draft an email, Proofread can suggest improvements beyond spelling and grammar corrections like conciseness, active voice, sentence structure, and word choice so everything is polished before you send. We recently launched this feature to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, and we’re now bringing it to additional Workspace plans.


Example of Conciseness suggestion

Workspace customers will get promotional access to higher usage limits of Proofread, allowing users to experiment with this feature. Per-user usage limits may apply afterward; we’ll provide more information in a future update prior to any changes.
