Use Help me schedule to easily set up a meeting time over email

What’s changing

Finding time to meet — especially with external clients and customers — is hard, often requiring many back-and-forth emails. The new Gemini-powered Help me schedule feature in Gmail makes it easier for you to coordinate time with others. 

Gmail with Gemini will detect when you’re trying to coordinate a time within an email and will surface a Help me schedule button in the toolbar. After you click on the Help me schedule button, Gemini will automatically suggest ideal slots based on your Google Calendar and the email's context. For example, if someone asks for a 30 minute meeting next week, Gemini will recommend time slots that fit your availability. 

You can customize the times that Gemini suggests by removing or adding additional options, and then insert them directly into your Gmail message. Once the recipient receives the email and selects a time that works for them, a Calendar invite will automatically be added to both individual’s calendars. At launch, this feature will only support scheduling between two individuals, not groups.
