I'm using an account provided by my employer

Your use of advanced AI features in Google Workspace is subject to usage limits. These limits are based on how your account was set up by your administrator.

AI usage limits reset on a daily or monthly cadence, depending on the feature. Your usage limits can't be shared with other people, and they don't roll over to the next month. 

How does my use of AI features affect usage limits?

There are several types of actions that count against your usage limits. Examples include:

  • You ask AI to do work for you. This happens when you do things like:
    • Use Google Flow or Vids to generate videos. 
    • Use Nano Banana to generate images in Slides or Docs.
    • Use the AI function in Google Sheets.
    • Generate audio overviews in Gemini, Gemini Notebook, and Drive. 
  • You use Workspace Studio to create and run flows.

Let your administrator know if you've exceeded your usage limit.
