Welcome to the club :(

I experienced this two times in the last year. Many people also wrote here
and on Google forums that they experience the same.

I suppose that they created an AI engine to filter spam that grew too big
and became quite uncontrollable. Even the people who created it aren't
probably completely sure how it works (of course, nobody will ever admit
that).

What I can advise is, first follow Google's sender guidelines:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126?hl=en . They require you to
have SPF, DKIM and DMARC in place - it may be some pain in the ass to do it
if you didn't yet, but I'm afraid you have no other choice. I was also
forced to implement it when I had my issues with Gmail. If it doesn't help
(in my case it didn't), then get the headers of a message that was
mis-classified as spam from one of your recipients (or create a test Gmail
account yourself and send a message to it), and use th Google contact form
to send the headers to them:
https://support.google.com/mail/contact/bulk_send_new . There is no
guarantee that this will help and they even say in this form that there
won't be any reply(!), but that's all you can do.

There is also Brandon from Google on this list, you can try to ask him, but
I'm not sure to what extent he can help.
