Export NotebookLM slides to PowerPoint
Short answer
Yes. To export NotebookLM slides to PowerPoint, open the slide deck in Studio, choose Export and pick PowerPoint. It is free in NotebookLM Ultra Exporter within the shared daily quota of 5 premium-format exports; Pro removes the quota. You get a .pptx in which each slide is the original slide image. It looks exactly like the deck in NotebookLM, and the text inside the images cannot be edited.
Quick facts
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Content | Slide decks are presentations NotebookLM generates in Studio. Each slide is delivered as an image, with its text available separately. |
| Output | PowerPoint (.pptx) |
| Plan | Free daily quota |
| Where | Export control on the slide deck, or the Studio list |
| Processing | Converted in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to export. |
Steps
- Install NotebookLM Ultra Exporter in desktop Chrome, then refresh any open NotebookLM (Gemini Notebook) tab.
- Open the slide deck in Studio and click the Export control, or use the export entry in the Studio list.
- Choose PowerPoint in the list of outputs and set any options shown for it.
- Open the downloaded file and check it before you rely on it or share it.
What you get
You get a .pptx in which each slide is the original slide image. It looks exactly like the deck in NotebookLM, and the text inside the images cannot be edited.
If you need to change wording, use editable PowerPoint instead, which rebuilds text boxes from the slide text.
Limits to know before you export
- NotebookLM renders each slide as an image. Standard exports keep that look and are not editable text.
- Page selection and image quality options follow what the export panel shows for your deck.
- The deck must have finished generating and must open in the notebook.
Can NotebookLM export slides on its own?
Gemini Notebook can download a deck as PDF or PPTX, but every slide is one flat image, so the text and charts cannot be edited. Google changes these menus often. The item's own menu in your notebook shows what is built in today.

Free or Pro?
Free within a shared daily quota: Word, PDF, image PPTX, long image and video exports share 5 successful exports per local day. Pro removes that quota. Pro covers the extension only; it does not include a Google subscription or raise NotebookLM's own limits. Current prices are on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
Is it free to export NotebookLM slides to PowerPoint?
Yes, within a limit. Word, PDF, image PPTX, long image and video exports share 5 successful exports per local day on Free; failed exports do not count and the quota resets the next day. Pro removes the daily quota.
Is the exported PowerPoint editable?
The standard export is image-based: you can reorder, delete and add slides, but not edit the text inside a slide. Editable text boxes need the Pro editable conversion.
Can I export only some slides?
The slide export panel offers page selection where the deck supports it. The options shown in the panel for your deck are authoritative.
Can I export several slide decks at once?
Yes. Batch export in Studio can include several decks. Free handles 5 items per batch; Pro removes that limit.
