Google has introduced a new Gemini AI-powered audio feature in Google Docs, allowing users to generate and listen to natural-sounding narrations of their documents.
Called “Listen to this,” the feature helps authors proofread by hearing text read aloud and offers readers an alternative way to consume content, improving comprehension and enabling multitasking. Users can choose from multiple voices, adjust playback speed, and even embed customizable audio buttons within documents.
The feature is rolling out to select Google Workspace tiers, including Business and Enterprise plans, as well as Gemini add-on customers. Currently, it is available in English on desktop.
