The AI Video Revolution With NotebookLM Video Overview
Let’s start with what actually changed.
NotebookLM was already one of Google’s smartest AI tools.
It lets you upload up to 50 different sources — PDFs, Google Docs, YouTube transcripts, and entire websites — and then analyze them with Gemini.
But now, with the new Video Overview feature, you can instantly create full videos from your research.
You upload your materials.
Choose a format.
And in seconds, the AI generates a professional video that summarizes, explains, and visualizes everything for you.
No video editor.
No complex workflow.
Just input and output.
That’s it.
This new feature takes what used to be a 5-hour content process — research, scripting, recording, editing — and turns it into a 5-minute automation.
How NotebookLM Video Overview Works
Here’s a simple walkthrough.
Step 1: Create a new notebook inside NotebookLM.
Upload your files — could be PDFs, YouTube links, or articles.
Step 2: Once your notebook is ready, open the Studio panel and click Video Overview.
This is where the fun begins.
You get full creative control.
You can pick your language (over 80 available), your video format (either explainer for deep dives or brief for short summaries), and your visual style (classic, whiteboard, anime, watercolor, or even retro print).
Step 3: Add your steering prompts.
This lets you guide the AI’s focus.
You can tell it to target beginners, focus on business owners, emphasize AI time-saving, or highlight case studies.
Within minutes, your video is ready.
It automatically includes narration, visuals, and key takeaways — all generated from your own research.
You can then download it as an MP4, share a link, or export it directly to YouTube or Google Drive.
Customization and Branding Power
This is where NotebookLM gets next-level.
You can describe exactly what you want your video to look like.
Want a clean corporate feel? Just say it.
Want a retro educational tone? The AI adjusts instantly.
You can even add brand-specific steering prompts:
“Make the visuals match Goldie Agency’s modern style.”
Or:
“Use bright blue and orange tones and minimalist graphics.”
That level of control means your content won’t just be faster — it’ll be on-brand.
For creators, educators, and businesses, that’s a massive win.
How NotebookLM and Gemini 3 Work Together
The NotebookLM Video Overview feature isn’t just a standalone tool — it’s now directly integrated with Gemini 3.
That means everything is connected.
You can take your NotebookLM research and instantly attach it to Gemini chats.
Then you can ask Gemini to create landing pages, images, email campaigns, or even more videos — all using your NotebookLM data.
It’s one continuous workflow.
No copy-paste.
No exporting files.
You just build once and generate everywhere.
This is what makes Gemini and NotebookLM so powerful — they turn your data into a content ecosystem.
You research once, and the AI handles everything else.
Real Business Example
Let’s say you’re building training content for your community.
You upload your scripts, notes, and research about AI automation for business into NotebookLM.
Then, you open the video overview tab and tell it:
“Create a 2-minute video explaining how small businesses can use Gemini and NotebookLM to automate repetitive work.”
Within minutes, it generates a polished video with visuals, narration, and subtitles.
You can post that on YouTube, LinkedIn, or your Skool community.
Now imagine doing that for every topic — blog post, client guide, SOP, course module.
You’d be scaling your content output without ever touching an editing tool.
That’s what I mean when I say this update is a game changer.
How Creators Are Using NotebookLM Video Overview
Here are a few real-world use cases I’ve seen already:
- YouTube Automation: Upload research on trending AI tools and instantly generate video summaries with visuals and captions.
- Course Creation: Turn study materials or lectures into short educational videos for students.
- Internal Training: Create team updates or onboarding explainers without recording.
- Social Media Content: Generate short-form explainer clips based on research or articles.
- Market Research Reports: Convert long reports into quick, visual video briefs your team can understand at a glance.
In other words, NotebookLM turns static data into dynamic media — instantly.

Data Tables, Studio Features, and Export Options
Another huge update — you can now export structured data from NotebookLM directly into Google Sheets.
That means if your research includes statistics or performance metrics, NotebookLM can automatically create a table and push it into Sheets.
This is ideal for:
- Keyword research
- Analytics summaries
- Campaign performance tracking
- Product data aggregation
From there, Gemini can turn that same dataset into charts, reports, or even videos — all in one workflow.
It’s the ultimate data-to-content system.
How to Access NotebookLM Video Overview
You can access NotebookLM Video Overview for free.
All you need is a Google account.
Go to notebooklm.google.com, sign in, and start creating notebooks.
If you want advanced features like larger data limits or faster processing, you can upgrade to Gemini Pro or Gemini Ultra — but the video creation feature itself works right on the free plan.
That’s huge.
Because it means anyone can now create high-quality video content — even without budget or editing skills.
Pro Tips for Better AI Videos
Here are a few quick ways to get the most from NotebookLM:
- Batch Upload Research: Upload 10–15 articles or PDFs per notebook so the AI has deep context.
- Use Custom Prompts: Tell the AI exactly who the video is for — “small business owners,” “AI beginners,” “coaches,” etc.
- Brand Your Visuals: Describe your color palette, tone, and logo placement.
- Combine with Gemini: Use Gemini 3 to generate related content — landing pages, posts, slides — from the same notebook.
- Batch Your Output: Create multiple notebooks, generate videos overnight, and schedule them weekly.
This is the kind of workflow creators are using to 10x their output while spending less time on manual work.

Because with AI, leverage beats labor.
