GoKawiilGoogle adds Gemini-powered file organizer to Google Drive for paid subscribers
Google has introduced 'Organize My Files in Drive,' a Gemini feature that automatically sorts and cleans up folders in Google Drive. The tool requires a paid Google AI Pro or AI Ultra subscription, or a Business, Enterprise, or Education account, and only works on private folders rather than shared ones. Users must also have Smart features enabled in Google Workspace for the tool to function.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
By gating the feature behind paid tiers, Google is using AI-powered productivity tools as another incentive to upgrade from free storage plans, which also bundle perks like extra storage and YouTube Premium Lite. The restriction to private folders shows Google is being cautious about applying AI automation to shared or collaborative content, likely to avoid disrupting team workflows or triggering permission issues.
