30 Amazing free things Google AI can do (Gemini, NotebookLM, AI Studio, AI Mode, Opal)

This course gathers the most powerful free tools in the Google ecosystem, showing how to turn AI into a true assistant for work and study. Rather than presenting a scattered list, it organizes 30 practical tasks by situation: rapid writing and editing with Gemini; researching, summarizing, and cross-referencing documents via NotebookLM; building a personal API with AI Studio to reuse requests efficiently; leveraging AI Mode in Search to extract information and channel it into Docs or Sheets; and using Opal to create mini-apps that handle repetitive tasks like receiving data, processing, logging, and sending reports. All tools are tied together with no-code playbooks, helping you move from “just testing AI” to running real processes with clear inputs, outputs, source attribution, and sharing permissions. By the end, you’ll have a lean, repeatable, and scalable workflow that saves hours each week while maintaining quality, privacy, and consistency.
