Google expanded File Search with multimodal retrieval (images and text indexed together via Gemini Embedding 2), custom metadata filters, and page-level citations. Supports PDFs, DOCX, Excel, CSV, JSON, Jupyter notebooks, and images up to 4K. Storage and query-time embeddings are free. You pay only for initial indexing and standard Gemini tokens. For anyone building RAG, this is worth comparing against your current embedding pipeline.
