What’s New in FolderLM

FolderLM is now live with a cleaner, faster, and more organized experience for NotebookLM users.

NotebookLM is powerful, but once your notebooks, sources, research, prompts, and projects start growing, it becomes harder to manage everything from one place. FolderLM is built to solve that problem by adding a productivity layer on top of NotebookLM — without changing the way NotebookLM already works.

With the latest FolderLM version, users can organize notebooks, manage sources, import content faster, reuse prompts, merge notebook material, work in fullscreen, copy with citations, and keep their NotebookLM workspace much easier to control.

1. Folders for NotebookLM

FolderLM now lets you organize your NotebookLM notebooks into folders.

Instead of scrolling through a long list of notebooks, you can group them by project, topic, client, class, research area, or personal workflow.

Examples:

  • Research
  • Study material
  • Client work
  • Business ideas
  • Personal projects
  • Legal / finance / documents
  • YouTube research
  • Course notes

This makes NotebookLM feel more structured and easier to use every day.

2. New Main Dashboard

FolderLM includes a clean dashboard where users can see and manage their NotebookLM workspace from one place.

The dashboard helps users quickly access notebooks, search through saved items, manage folders, and keep their workspace organized.

The goal is simple:

Spend less time looking for notebooks and more time using them.

3. Bulk Import

FolderLM adds bulk import support to make adding multiple sources easier.

Instead of adding files one by one, users can prepare and import multiple files faster. This is useful for research documents, PDFs, class material, project files, reports, and other large source collections.

This feature is especially helpful for users who create large NotebookLM notebooks with many sources.

4. Merge Notebooks / Merge Sources

FolderLM includes tools to help users combine notebook material more easily.

If users have related notebooks or sources spread across different places, FolderLM helps bring them together into a more organized workflow.

This is useful when:

  • Similar research is split across multiple notebooks
  • Project sources are scattered
  • Users want to combine study material
  • Old notebooks need to be consolidated
  • A cleaner master notebook is needed

5. Sources Page

FolderLM now includes a dedicated Sources Page to help users manage NotebookLM sources more clearly.

Users can view, organize, and work with source content more easily instead of jumping between different notebooks manually.

This helps with:

  • Finding source material faster
  • Reviewing source details
  • Managing source exports
  • Keeping research material organized

6. Source Preview and Export

FolderLM includes a Source Preview screen where users can review NotebookLM source text before exporting or reusing it.

Current export formats include:

  • Markdown
  • TXT
  • HTML
  • JSON

This is useful when users want to reuse NotebookLM source content in documents, notes, research workflows, websites, or other tools.

7. Prompt Library

FolderLM now includes a prompt library so users can save and reuse prompts.

Instead of rewriting the same prompt every time, users can keep useful prompts ready for research, summaries, study help, writing, source analysis, reports, and more.

Example prompt categories:

  • Summarize this source
  • Create study notes
  • Extract action items
  • Compare documents
  • Find contradictions
  • Generate report outline
  • Create quiz questions
  • Explain like I am a beginner

This makes NotebookLM workflows faster and more repeatable.

8. Fullscreen Mode

FolderLM adds fullscreen support for a cleaner NotebookLM working experience.

This helps users focus when reading, researching, writing, or presenting NotebookLM content.

Fullscreen is useful for:

  • Long research sessions
  • Studying
  • Writing reports
  • Screen recording
  • Presentations
  • Distraction-free reading

9. Copy with Citations

FolderLM includes copy-with-citations support to help users preserve source context when copying NotebookLM answers.

This is useful for research, study notes, reports, professional writing, and any workflow where citations matter.

Instead of copying plain text and losing source references, FolderLM helps keep the answer more useful outside NotebookLM.

10. Multi-language Support

FolderLM includes multi-language support so more users can use the extension comfortably.

The goal is to make FolderLM accessible to NotebookLM users across different regions and languages while keeping important product names like FolderLM and NotebookLM consistent.

11. Privacy-focused Workflow

FolderLM is designed as a productivity layer for NotebookLM.

The focus is on helping users organize, import, export, and manage their NotebookLM workspace while keeping the workflow simple and transparent.

FolderLM does not try to replace NotebookLM. It improves the experience around it.

12. Better Support and Feedback Flow

FolderLM now has clearer support and feedback flows so users can report issues, request features, send feedback, and share business inquiries more easily.

This helps us understand what users need most and improve FolderLM based on real workflows.

Why This Update Matters

The latest FolderLM version is focused on making NotebookLM more practical for everyday use.

NotebookLM is great for working with sources, but users often need better ways to:

  • Organize notebooks
  • Manage many sources
  • Import files faster
  • Reuse prompts
  • Export content
  • Work with citations
  • Keep large workspaces clean
  • Avoid messy notebook lists

FolderLM helps solve these problems with simple tools built around real NotebookLM workflows.

Who FolderLM Is For

FolderLM is useful for:

  • Students
  • Researchers
  • Teachers
  • Writers
  • Founders
  • Analysts
  • Content creators
  • Professionals
  • Teams using NotebookLM for source-heavy work
  • Anyone managing many NotebookLM notebooks

Whether you use NotebookLM for study, business, research, documentation, personal knowledge, or client work, FolderLM helps keep everything easier to manage.

What’s Coming Next

We are already planning the next version of FolderLM with more free, practical, and privacy-friendly improvements.

Upcoming ideas include:

  • Whole chat export
  • Better source library
  • Duplicate source detection
  • AI chat import from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and DeepSeek
  • YouTube transcript importer
  • Email export importer
  • GitHub repo importer
  • BibTeX references
  • Export answer to LaTeX
  • Firefox support
  • Dark theme improvements

We are building FolderLM based on real user feedback, so if there is a feature you want, please share it with us.

This latest version brings folders, dashboard tools, bulk import, merge support, source preview, exports, prompt library, fullscreen, copy with citations, multi-language support, and better feedback flows — all designed to make NotebookLM easier to use every day.
