NotebookLM’s Video Overview feature now supports 80 languages

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

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

Additionally, Audio Overviews have been improved for non-English users. The feature was originally limited to short summaries, with the full version available only in English. Now, users can get more in-depth audio overviews in over 80 languages. The company notes that users will still have the option to get a shorter overview if they only want the key highlights.

These updates are designed to meet the needs of NotebookLM’s global audience, helping users learn through video or audio summaries in the language they prefer. Starting today, these upgrades are available to everyone and will be rolling out globally over the next week.
