Best for prototypes, research, and personal projects. See Troubleshooting for debugging tips.
🤖 AI Agent Tools - Integrate NotebookLM into Claude Code or other LLM agents. Ships with Claude Code skills for natural language automation (
notebooklm skill install), or build your own integrations with the async Python API.📚 Research Automation - Bulk-import sources (URLs, PDFs, YouTube, Google Drive), run web/Drive research queries with auto-import, and extract insights programmatically. Build repeatable research pipelines.
🎙️ Content Generation - Generate Audio Overviews (podcasts), videos, slide decks, quizzes, flashcards, infographics, data tables, mind maps, and study guides. Full control over formats, styles, and output.
📥 Downloads & Export - Download all generated artifacts locally (MP3, MP4, PDF, PNG, CSV, JSON, Markdown). Export to Google Docs/Sheets. Features the web UI doesn't offer: batch downloads, quiz/flashcard export in multiple formats, mind map JSON extraction.
