Every Notebook OS tool for Gemini Notebook
Notebook OS runs in a side panel next to Gemini Notebook. It writes the instruction for each artifact from your sources, takes your voice in the chat box, exports slides as an editable .pptx and keeps your library searchable. The panel opens on any other tab too.
Teach it how you work — once.
A Skill is a reusable instruction that captures your way of working. Apply it to a notebook and it becomes a source — so Gemini Notebook follows it in every answer, every follow-up and every artifact, not just the next prompt.
2. Extract effect sizes into a data table
3. Flag conflicting findings for follow-up
From conversation to artifact — automatically.
Pick an artifact type and a recipe. Notebook OS reads your chat, writes the instruction around your actual notebook sources, fills the Customize dialog and triggers Gemini Notebook's native generator. No copy-paste, no manual prompting.
A deck whose text is text.
Gemini Notebook exports slides as pictures. Turn Editable Deck on in the Presentation recipe and the deck you download is a .pptx whose title and bullets are real text boxes — editable in PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides, with the rendered background kept as one picture layer per slide.
Present your slides. No watermark, no export.
Gemini Notebook generates beautiful slide decks — but they live trapped in a scroll view with a watermark in the corner. Premium Deck View turns them into a real presentation: a dark, full-screen stage you launch straight from the notebook.
Speak into the chat box. Hear your terms back.
Voice Dictation: double-tap Space and hold (or click the mic pill), speak, release — the text is in Gemini Notebook's chat box, not sent, so you edit before you send. Term Drill reads the key terms of your sources aloud one at a time and pauses for you to say the equivalent. Voice Brain Dump, in the side panel, records a memo and uploads it as a source.
Capture the web. Save to Gemini Notebook.
See a chart, diagram, or visual worth keeping? Snip it. Notebook OS captures the image and uploads it directly to Gemini Notebook as a source — so visual information is as easy to save as text. No other Gemini Notebook extension can do this.
Your best thinking, wherever it happened.
Had a breakthrough brainstorming session in another AI tool? Don't let it disappear. Notebook OS saves the conversation and uploads it to Gemini Notebook as a source — so your thinking becomes research, no matter where it happened.
Find the research. Never leave the notebook.
Search peer-reviewed papers by keyword, author, or topic directly from the side panel. Preview abstracts, check citations, then add what you need to your active notebook — without opening a new tab.
Every artifact you made, one click away.
Audio overviews, slide decks, reports, mind maps — Gemini Notebook buries them across notebooks. Pin the ones that matter to the Artifact Shelf and jump back into any of them instantly, from any notebook.
