NotebookLM can now turn your notes into short videos

A TikTok-style vertical video format for learning from your notes and materials.

Google’s NotebookLM has introduced Short Video Overviews.

With it, you can turn your notes, PDFs, and other sources into 60-second vertical videos.

The feature adds to NotebookLM already diverse set of AI-generated learning formats, including podcasts, mind maps, flashcards, slide decks, and more.

Short-form videos have become one of the primary ways we consume content on our phones, thanks to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels.

Rather than fighting our existing content habits, NotebookLM now uses that same format to make lengthy documents and complex concepts easier to consume, making learning easier to fit into everyday life.
