The upgrade goes beyond video. Google has also enhanced Audio Overviews, allowing non-English speakers to enjoy more detailed audio summaries than before. Previously limited to English, these tools are now breaking down language barriers for learners worldwide.
Why This Update Matters
NotebookLM first introduced Video Overviews last month, giving users a way to quickly generate video summaries from their documents. But the feature was limited to English, leaving out millions of potential users. By supporting 80 languages—including French, German, Spanish, and Japanese—Google has positioned NotebookLM as a truly global learning assistant.
Smarter Audio Overviews for Non-English Speakers
Audio Overviews are also stepping up. While they once provided only short non-English snippets, the new update offers deeper, more meaningful summaries across the same 80 languages. Users can still choose between quick highlights or more detailed explanations depending on their needs.
A Win for Global Accessibility
These changes align with Google’s mission to make knowledge more accessible, no matter where users live or what language they speak. With NotebookLM’s Video Overviews feature now supporting 80 languages, students, professionals, and lifelong learners can engage with content in ways that feel natural and personalized.
Availability
Google confirmed that these updates are rolling out starting today and will reach users worldwide over the next week. Whether you’re creating study guides, business reports, or research summaries, NotebookLM’s expanded language support ensures no one is left out of the conversation.
