From my experience it just takes time. As users mark your email as
legitimate and not as spam your domain will build a good report Google.
Also, try implementing DKIM to help Google to verify the email.

I went through it and at the end it says there's not a way to whitelist a
domain.

There's this checklist, too:

Subject: Google SMTP acceptance policy?

Anyone have guidance on how to legimately stay out of Google/GMail's spam
classifier and arrive at the inbox?

We have a domain that is relatively newly registered, has proper MTA
configuration and SPF records that I haven't been able to find on any
blocklist, but GMail sends email from it straight to the spam folder.

I haven't been able to find useful documentation for GMail in this regard
around the web. Have looked at abuse.net's info, links and resources.

Thanks,
