Google is renaming NotebookLM to Gemini Notebook

You’ll soon be able to access your notebooks in AI Mode, too.

Google is giving its AI note-taking app a new name. The company announced on Thursday that NotebookLM is becoming Gemini Notebook, but will remain a standalone app even as it integrates more deeply across Gemini and Google Search.

Google first revealed Gemini Notebook — then called Project Tailwind — in May 2023 before widely releasing the app just months later . Over the past few years, Google has been adding new features to the app to help organize and make sense of your notes, such as the ability to summarize them as AI podcasts , narrated slideshows , and TikTok-style clips . It recently started letting users connect their notebooks to the Gemini app as well. Google says it plans to bring notebooks to AI Mode, its chatbot-like experience in Search, too.

Along with the name change, Google is rolling out an update announced last month that allows Gemini Notebook to connect to a secure cloud computer to write and execute code. This feature is available to Google AI Ultra and Workspace business customers, but will come to Pro users on the web “over the coming weeks.”
