Your Google Drive,organized where it lives.
The Drive AI reads each file in your Google Drive, renames it by what it says, and files it where it belongs, without taking it out of Drive. It works in My Drive and in the Shared Drives your workspace admin adds. Tired of Untitled document (3) and scan_0412.pdf in every folder? You see every change first, and one undo reverses the whole change, later too, except files someone has changed since.
Connecting Google Drive comes with the Max plan or any Team plan.
What you can ask

Files you already have
Can The Drive AI organize the Google Drive files I already have?
Yes, in place. The assistant works directly in a connected Google Drive, in the app or in the browser extension, and a scheduled workflow can go over a whole folder on a timetable. Connected drives come with the Max plan or any Team plan.
The assistant in the appYes, in place
Connect Google Drive and ask the assistant to sort, rename, move, or share files where they live. Nothing has to be imported. You can still import a folder into The Drive AI, or export back, when you want a copy.
The browser extensionYes, in place
Open drive.google.com with the extension installed and ask it to sort, rename, move, or share what is already there. It is the same agent as the web app, in Chrome's side panel. The files never leave Google Drive and nothing is imported.
Get the extensionA scheduled workflowYes, in place, on a schedule
Point a workflow at a Google Drive folder and set each run to go through every file rather than only new ones. It reads each file and renames or moves it inside Google Drive.
How workflows work
Compared with Gemini in Drive
Gemini suggests homes for loose files. The Drive AI reorganizes the whole Drive.
Since June 2026, Gemini in Drive can suggest where loose files should go. Here is what each one does, from Google's own documentation.
| What it is for | The Drive AI | Gemini in Drive |
|---|---|---|
| Files with meaningless names | The Drive AI Renames each file by what it says: vendor, date, client, total. | Gemini in Drive Leaves file names as they are. You can rename the new folders it proposes. |
| Files already in the wrong folders | The Drive AI Reorganizes whole folder trees, not only loose files: "sort Clients by client and year". | Gemini in Drive Suggests where loose files in My Drive, or in the folder you are in, should go. |
| Checking before anything moves | The Drive AI Shows every move and rename as one plan. One undo reverses the whole change, later too, except files someone has changed since. | Gemini in Drive Shows suggestions you approve as a batch, and offers Undo right after the move. |
| Files that arrive tomorrow | The Drive AI A filing workflow, set up once, renames and files each new file in a watched folder. | Gemini in Drive Suggests moves when you click Suggest file moves. |
| Where it works | The Drive AI My Drive, the Shared Drives your workspace admin adds, and OneDrive, SharePoint and Dropbox if you connect them. | Gemini in Drive Google Drive on the web, in English, on Business Standard or Plus, Enterprise Standard or Plus, or Google AI Pro or Ultra. |
If your Drive is mostly loose files, the names are fine, and your Google plan includes Gemini in Drive (Business Standard or Plus, Enterprise Standard or Plus, or Google AI Pro or Ultra), start with Gemini's Suggest file moves: it costs nothing extra. The Drive AI is for the rest: renaming by content, reorganizing folders that already exist, and keeping new files filed.

How it works
Connect it. Ask it. Approve it.
Connect Google Drive
Sign in with Google and My Drive is there. A workspace admin adds each Shared Drive once, and members work in it if their own Google account has access.
Ask in a sentence
Sort a folder, rename files, share one, or ask a question across a Shared Drive. It all happens inside Drive.
Approve the plan
Big changes are shown as one plan before anything moves. One undo reverses the whole change, later too, except files someone has changed since.
FAQ
Questions answered
Can AI organize my Google Drive?
Yes. The Drive AI connects to Google Drive and renames, moves and files what you ask, in My Drive and the Shared Drives your workspace admin adds, as one change you see before it runs and can undo afterwards. Gemini in Drive suggests folders for loose files on eligible Google plans. Connecting Google Drive comes with the Max plan or any Team plan.
How is The Drive AI different from Gemini's Suggest file moves?
Gemini suggests where loose files should go and leaves their names as they are. The Drive AI also renames files by their content, reorganizes folders that already exist, files new arrivals through a workflow, and works across OneDrive, SharePoint and Dropbox as well as Google Drive.
Can Claude or ChatGPT organize my Google Drive?
Both can move files in Google Drive through their own Drive connections, where your plan and workspace allow it, with you approving actions in the chat. The Drive AI plans a whole reorganization as one change you preview and undo, and you can add it to Claude or ChatGPT as a connector to ask from there.
How many Google Drive files can The Drive AI organize at once?
Up to 5,000 files in one request on Max and Team. A large change runs in the background, and the whole of it can still be undone as one.
Does The Drive AI work with Google Shared Drives?
Yes, once a workspace admin adds them. The admin adds each Shared Drive once, and members then work in it if their own Google account has access: the assistant renames and files in it, imports from it and exports to it, and a workflow can watch a whole Shared Drive or one folder in it. A Shared Drive is not a folder under My Drive, so you pick the drive first and then browse inside it.
Does The Drive AI move my files out of Google Drive?
No. The assistant and workflows rename, move, and share files inside Drive. Files come into The Drive AI only when you import them, and importing copies them; the originals stay where they are.
Will The Drive AI delete anything in my Google Drive?
Not unless you ask it to. Deleting waits for your confirmation, and so does any request that makes more than 20 changes in one go. One undo reverses the whole change, later too, except files someone has changed since.
What happens to Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides in The Drive AI?
Worked on in place, they stay Google files. Imported into The Drive AI, they are converted to their Microsoft Office equivalents: docx, xlsx, and pptx.
Can I organize my Google Drive from my phone?
Yes. In The Drive AI app for iPhone and Android, your connected Google Drive, the assistant and workflows work the same as on the web.
Which plan connects Google Drive to The Drive AI?
Connecting Google Drive comes with the Max plan or any Team plan. Files you upload to The Drive AI can be organized on every plan, free included.
Can I try The Drive AI before paying?
Yes. The Team plan starts with a 7-day free trial, and connecting Google Drive is included.
Is my Google Drive data secure with The Drive AI?
You sign in with Google, so your password is never shared. Files are encrypted in transit and at rest and never used to train AI models, and you can revoke access from your Google account at any time.
Your Google Drive, finally in order.
