NotebookLM’s Video Overviews feature now supports 80 languages

Google announced on Monday that it updated NotebookLM’s Video Overviews feature to support 80 languages, including French, German, Spanish, and Japanese. The company also upgraded Audio Overviews, enhancing non-English audio summaries to be more detailed. 

Last month, NotebookLM launched Video Overviews so users could turn their notes, PDFs, and images into video presentations. Previously only available in English, this update is beneficial for non-English speakers who want to learn from visual summaries in their preferred language. 

Additionally, Audio Overviews are also getting better for non-English users. It was originally limited to short summaries, with the full version just in English. Now, users can get more in-depth overviews across over 80 languages. The company says there will still be an option to get a shorter overview if the user just wants the highlights.  

These updates are designed to meet the needs of NotebookLM’s global audience, helping users learn through video or audio summaries, no matter which language they prefer.

Starting today, these updates are available to everyone and will be rolling out globally over the next week.
