- Does not really work as advertised (at least on Vivaldi), and there are legal concerns regarding consumer and data protection rights. Though I must commend the idea behind the extension, it is far from finished, and there are some safety and legal concerns that I think need to be addressed. The good: - This extension is capable of importing web pages and YouTube videos (most of the time). - It does offer source organization/management features such as bulk deletion in your notebook (something Google should've added from the beginning). - It can bulk import links and web pages through manual entry of the links into its interface I haven't tried importing RSS feeds, as the button is not there for me on its interface, nor do I use any such feeds. The bad: - While the images on the Chrome Web Store show a pop-up window under the extension button, in reality the extension opens a side panel (on Vivaldi) that is much more basic than what the images promise. This leads me to my next point... - Features that it advertises are outright missing. There is no podcast management button. There is no RSS feed button. There is no "Links", "Browser Tabs", "Page Links", "YouTube Playlist", or "RSS Feed" option for putting in a link and parsing it. - There is no notebook management like it advertises in its documentation site, no tagging feature. - The "link selection" feature where you click on links to add them is buggy, and doesn't work outside the most basic of websites (as an example, it works about 75% the time on Wikipedia, from my experience). Legal Concerns: - The developer attempts to deny all mandatory EU consumer rights in their privacy policy and TOS by claiming to be a 'non-trader'. While it's all well and good to post that up on the store, the fact that the policy and TOS are signed '© 2025 Less But Better, LLC' makes me think it is a company attempting to skirt consumer protections. - There is a total lack of transparency with regards to its obligations under the EU's GDPR, most notably not stating the legal basis for data processing and an absence of safeguards on international data transfers. We don't even know where our data is going, or how it is processed. - There is no clear mechanism to exercise your rights as a consumer and as someone whose data is used. There's no designated contact channel, no mechanism for EU users to exercise their right to access, to correct, or to erase the data, not to mention no channel for addressing consumer disputes. This all goes on while the company/developer claims we can exercise our rights within the privacy policy. - The terms of service, from a cursory read, are unenforceable in the EU. They're very slanted in favor of the company, and I don't think they would hold up to scrutiny from any Data Protection Agencies or in EU courts. TL;DR This thing is missing the features it advertises or misrepresents the way they function, and is also legally opaque as to where your data is going and what your rights are. There is no contact info for the developer in order to report bugs, to ask for help, or to exercise your basic consumer and data protection rights. If those issues could be fixed, I think it has the potential to be the best NBLM importing extension out there.

- 김경민
- Very easy and convenient.
- domenico cavalli
- Mostly good, almost exactly what I want from the extension. There is still no option to save notes in Google Doc, Word, or PDF format to make using LM Notebook more efficient. You can still save, but it's a huge waste of time.
- Andi L
- Mostly good, almost exactly what I want from the extension. Constant nagging about a 5-star review forces me to give 4 stars only
- Joshua Chuang
- Perfect AI Tool
- Chin Yu-Sheng

- Mahmud Hossain
- No tension for coping and pasting of youtube link. It's really amazing to add webpage into the NotebookLM.
- Varun Ramesh
- You know it's a banger Google product when you need a banger third-party extension to make it *work*. This is a must-have.
- syncon gc
- I see it can generate audio now. Can you also add custom prompt option for generating audio?
- M.Yasir Ali Shah
- Really helps with importing, saves time
- 김준오
- This fits me perfectly. Nothing better to me. Thanks a million.
- Logan Webb
- Really loving this tool. It makes the ingest process so much easier. Would love a couple of things. *Chat GPT / Perplexity Integration - Would be great to add all perplexity results to a notebook. * When adding a new source, can we PLEASE have it auto default to the last used notebook?
- Nathan Davison
- This has been such a powerful and simple tool to quickly bring key sources into Google Notebook. Thank you for creating this valuable extension.
- Tyler Fall, MSF
- For anyone wondering: Yes, you CAN add to an existing Notebook (so disregard any previous rating mentioning that!). Saw the creator mention this extension on a Reddit thread (or post) and it did exactly what he said. It works very fast: the dropdown menu is as responsive as you'd hope it is, and, surprisingly, the Notebook seems to update quicker this way than adding a direct YouTube link into the notebook itself! 2 things I want to add for OP's future consideration, as these additions would be awesome: - Not have the selected Notebook change with each tab/open of the extension - Allow multiple links to be added in the extension (e.g. channel/playlist video url extraction, or [like above] have the Notebook selection be unchanged when navigating tabs to seamlessly add multiple video urls that way) Either way, had to write a review when I saw the outdated ones! Thanks for this extension!
- Glenn Dube
- So far using it for the first time this afternoon... it's the add on I really didn't know I needed. I don't know about anyone else but the way my mind works, if I want to know something it's pretty specific and I don't need a lot of distracting details about things that aren't relevant, If you've ever followed an online recipe you'll know how frustrating it is when the recipe and method are interspersed with the writers thoughts, stories and anecdotes when you really just need to know when to put the salt in. oh and the other reviewers that pointed out that it starts a new notebook every time will be glad to know there is a control to pick the notebook to add your content to. it must be recently added
- Victor Rodriguez
- Finally, I've been waiting for a tool like this since I started using Notebook LM. I would love to have one shortcut to generate the audio overview directly from one source, because it's the main thing that I do. I don't use audio overview to generate things with more than one source, just one. Just having one button to import in Notebook LM and generate the audio would be amazing!
- Troels Rosenberg
- I fully agree with the review beloow "Griffin cox". I really enjoy the product, but it would be great if it was possible to add to an existing document instead.
- Griffin Cox
- Helpful, but it always creates a new notebook with every use. Would be better if we had the choice to add to an existing notebook.
- wong2
- Very convenient
