Create up to 50 folders per notebook to group related sources. Drag and drop to reorganize, rename as your project evolves, and collapse to focus.
A toolbar on every notebook page — Export sources · Export Studio · Copy to notebook · More · Open — so the common jobs happen in a panel on the page instead of the side panel. Free for everyone.


Open a public or link-shared notebook in NotebookLM and the toolbar still shows up — with a 'Not in your library' chip and the read-only set of tools: Export sources, Export Studio, Copy to notebook, and Open.
Create Audio, Quiz, Flashcards, Report, Slide Deck, Data Table, Mind Map, Video, and Infographic from one panel — with presets and saved prompts in every instructions box, and with Pro, several types at once, one item per topic from a list, or the same preset on up to 20 notebooks.


A Print / PDF button in the dialog of notes, reports, quizzes, flashcard sets, data tables, and text sources opens a print view in a new tab; your browser's print dialog opens by itself, and Save as PDF gives you a file named after the item. Quizzes download as a CSV spreadsheet, flashcards as an Anki-ready CSV, and formulas render as math in the viewers and on every printout. Free for everyone.
Collections are NotebookLM's built-in way to group notebooks — a notebook can belong to several. NotebookLM Tools adds the full management layer: a Manage Collections page, bulk assignment, filters, and a one-click tag converter. All free.


One search bar to find any notebook or source. Tabbed results, source type filtering, text highlighting, and pagination.
Save up to 100 prompts and trigger any of them instantly with /slash commands. Organize by category, edit over time, and stop retyping instructions.


Audio Overviews, Study Guides, Flashcards, Quizzes, Videos, Mind Maps, Infographics, Slide Decks, Data Tables, Reports, Notes, and Custom Files — all viewable inline with full interactivity.
No more adding sources one at a time. NotebookLM Tools lets you work with multiple sources at once, saving you time and effort.


Local tags, native collections, and powerful filtering help you find and manage notebooks effortlessly.
Switch between grid and table views, sort and search notebooks, and see permission badges and source counts on every card.

Connect multiple Google accounts and switch between them without logging out. A NotebookLM tab acts as the connected account it's signed in as, even if your active account differs — and output language is remembered per account.


Choose the look that fits your workflow. The extension panel supports dark, light, and system themes so it stays comfortable alongside NotebookLM.
Detect when Google Drive documents have changed since they were added. Visual badges highlight outdated sources, and one-click sync brings everything current.


Back up your tags, prompts, folders, and settings as a JSON file, and any notebook's sources as JSON or a ZIP of Markdown files. Restore selectively when switching devices or browsers.
Switch languages instantly with support for 80+ languages worldwide.


Scan notebooks for audio, play with a persistent Now Playing bar, and download for offline listening.
Pro users generate Quiz + Flashcards + Slides + Report in one click, one item per topic from a list, or the same preset on up to 20 notebooks. Live progress, all done while you keep working.
