All tools
free
Draws a half-formed idea out of you through questions, then turns the finished version into a deliverable — audio, diagram, slides or video. Runs in a default conversational mode until you explicitly ask it to export.
Community tools link to where their authors published them, so credit and updates stay with the original project.

- YouTube to NotebookLMSend entire channels, playlists or search results into a notebook in one click instead of pasting videos one at a time.
- Folders for NotebookLMAdds folder organization to the notebook list — built by a community developer who got tired of waiting for the official feature.
- EPUB to TXT converterConverts ebooks into clean plain text for upload — still useful for EPUBs that import poorly.
- Academic Prompt LabA prompt generator covering twenty analysis types — gap analysis, thematic coding, Feynman technique — with a rigor toggle.
- SurfSenseSelf-hosted Gemini Notebook alternative that connects Slack, Notion, GitHub and more — for teams whose documents can't touch a third party.
- NotebookLM MCP Server (PleasePrompto)Drives a real Chrome session so an AI agent can chat with a notebook, add sources, and generate Audio Overviews, with DOM-level citations in every response. Needs a persistent Chrome profile signed into one Google account.
- NotebookLM REST API + MCP Server (roomi-fields)Wraps every Studio output — audio, video, infographics, reports, slides, data tables — behind a 33-endpoint REST API, built for wiring NotebookLM into n8n, Zapier or Make. Supports multi-account rotation for batch jobs.
- NotebookLM MCP (khengyun)Talks to NotebookLM over its internal RPC calls instead of driving a browser, so there's no Chrome process to keep alive. Around 28 tools cover chat and source management, plus source merging across notebooks and mind maps.
- Conversational Bot (Versatile Bot Project)Makes a notebook answer in a friendly, chatty register while still handling analysis and generation requests. Spells out how it weighs your uploaded sources against general knowledge — where the two disagree, your sources win.
- Custom Bot (Versatile Bot Project)A harness rather than a persona: it reads whatever system prompt you put in a second source and follows that. Add this document plus your own instructions and the notebook becomes that assistant; add it alone and it asks you for the instructions.
- Chat Episode (Versatile Bot Project)For Audio Overviews rather than chat. Restructures the episode so the hosts pause for listener input instead of talking straight through, with rules for switching language mid-episode.
