Google Labs developed research tool, Google NotebookLM, has just launched a Video Overview feature on July 30, 2025, to beat the text into AI video, content creation market.
Video Overviews can convert raw data into AI narrated video slides which will showcase diagrams, quotes, images and data just like numbers.
Gemini assisted tech model will summarize advanced complicated data into understandable and clear content with newly updated studio panel.
Shan Wang, a senior UX designer at Google wrote in official blog: “You can ask generic questions in this model like, I know nothing about this topic; help me understand the diagrams or I'm already an expert on X and my team works on Y; focus on Z."
“You'll now find four distinct tiles at the top of the Studio panel for creating Audio Overviews, Video Overviews, Reports and Mind Maps,” a software engineer Usama Bin Shafqat co-authored the tech tutorial.
The new tool can be used very simply just creating a new Notebook or clicking on any previous one. Next step is upload sources then select the option of Video Overview in studio and in end choose generate to get a video to watch and download.
Mind maps generates outputs like notes connecting dots like it will draw NotebookLM update topic into major update and video overview feature.
