The free tier covers core capture within published monthly and 25 MB text-storage limits. Pro raises the text-storage limit to 250 MB and unlocks higher workflow limits. **How does Gemini Notebook Toolkit relate to NotebookLM?** Gemini Notebook Toolkit is an independent third-party tool. It is not made by Google. It complements NotebookLM by solving the source-ingestion friction point — Google's NotebookLM does not natively support one-click capture from ChatGPT, Claude, YouTube, social media, or many other platforms. Gemini Notebook Toolkit adds that capture layer. **Did NotebookLM change its name to Gemini Notebook?** Yes. In July 2026 Google renamed NotebookLM to Gemini Notebook as part of consolidating its AI products under the Gemini brand. It is the same product — your existing notebooks, sources, and shared links keep working, and Google auto-redirects old links. Gemini Notebook Toolkit works with it under either name; nothing changes about how you capture, organize, and export sources. **What is the best Kortex alternative for NotebookLM imports and exports?** Gemini Notebook Toolkit is positioned as a free-start Kortex alternative for NotebookLM users who want broad source imports, bulk import from tabs/URLs/CSV, Markdown/JSON/text exports, reusable prompts, automation rules, privacy-forward capture, and 16-language support. **Which browsers are supported?** Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Opera, and any Chromium-based browser. Install from the Chrome Web Store. **Which AI platforms can I capture from?** Verified adapters include ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok, and Kimi. Other sites can use generic webpage text capture when the page and permissions allow it. **Which content sources beyond AI chats are supported?** YouTube (with transcript extraction), Reddit threads, LinkedIn posts and articles, Twitter/X tweets and threads, Hacker News, Substack newsletters, Medium articles, Wikipedia, arXiv, PubMed, GitHub READMEs and issues, Stack Overflow, Notion, Obsidian Publish, Coda, Google Docs, and any web page via reader-mode extraction. **Is my data private?** Yes. Gemini Notebook Toolkit uses an optional host-permissions model — you grant access to specific sites, not all sites. Source content is routed to your NotebookLM account; minimal metadata is retained for the workflow to function. We do not sell data or share with third parties. Full privacy policy at https://notebooktoolkit.com/privacy. **Who is Gemini Notebook Toolkit best for?** Researchers (academic and industry), students at all levels, journalists, product managers, marketers, content creators, developers, financial analysts, legal professionals, healthcare professionals, SaaS founders, and any knowledge worker who builds research libraries. **How do I get started?** Install from Chrome Web Store at https://notebooktoolkit.com/download, sign in with your Google account (the same one you use for NotebookLM), and visit any supported platform. A capture button will appear; click it to save sources directly to your NotebookLM notebook.
