About

Gemini Notebook (formerly known as NotebookLM) is an AI-powered research and learning tool that helps users understand information using their own uploaded sources. The platform lets users add notes, documents, reports, and other materials, then ask questions and receive responses grounded in the provided content. Gemini Notebook can turn source material into formats such as Audio Overviews, Mind Maps, Reports, Flashcards, Quizzes, Video Overviews, Data Tables, Infographics, and Slide Decks. Users can also explore public notebooks on topics such as aging research, life advice, Shakespeare, and corporate earnings reports. The product emphasizes privacy, stating that organizational and school data stays private and is not used to train Gemini Notebook. Built for learning, research, productivity, and content understanding, Gemini Notebook helps users move from raw sources to summaries, insights, study materials, and structured outputs faster.

About

SurfSense is an AI-powered research and knowledge management assistant that lets you connect and query all your personal and team data in one place using natural language, acting as a highly customizable open source alternative to tools like NotebookLM and Perplexity. It lets you link internal knowledge sources such as Notion, GitHub, Slack, Gmail, Google Drive, YouTube, and other apps, then build a unified searchable knowledge base where you can ask questions and get cited answers in real time while choosing from over 100 leading LLMs or even local models for privacy and control. It supports real-time collaboration with team presence, roles, and permissions, and centralized workflows to find, ask, and act on information quickly, turning scattered files, messages, and documents into a coherent workspace with powerful hybrid search across connected sources and advanced retrieval techniques.
