Warum Sie es verwenden sollten

Gems help you leverage the power of Gemini more efficiently and in a way that’s customized to your needs by minimizing repetitive prompting. You can create Gems to complete specific goals, tasks, and workflows. This update further enhances this functionality by allowing you to create Gems that anchor to specific files, referencing these files as a source for more relevant responses. For example, you can upload:

Corporate style guides that instantly creates or refines brand-aligned copy for websites, email subject lines, or social media posts.
Project files to create a project specific assistant
Internal documents which can be referenced at any time, such as how to best provide customer service based on a handbook or other best practices
HR documents to easily reference and find answers to common questions
Product specs and instruction manuals for quick troubleshooting
Customer feedback to easily identify trends and areas of improvement
Education standards to plan lessons and create content that align with your school’s needs
Grant research and notes to help accelerate the research process and drive innovation
