Details
Workspace gives you email at your own domain plus Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides and Meet under one login. Gemini, Google’s AI assistant, is built into Gmail on every plan and into the other apps from Business Standard up.
Business Starter covers the basics for one person: email, 30 GB of pooled storage per user and meetings for up to 100 people. Business Standard ($14 per user a month on an annual plan) adds 2 TB of storage, meeting recordings, appointment booking pages and eSignature in Docs and PDFs.
The prices on the pricing page assume a one-year commitment. Paying month to month on the Flexible plan costs more: $8.40 per user for Business Starter. New customers also get introductory prices for their first 12 months, on up to 20 users.
SavvyCal makes scheduling collaborative instead of “here’s my link, pick a slot.” Built by Derrick Reimer (who co-founded Drip), it lets people overlay their own calendar when booking, which feels way less one-sided than traditional scheduling links. Bootstrapped to over $1M ARR.
