Frequently asked questions

Is it free to import an RSS feed into NotebookLM?

The basic use is free within 20 successful imports per local day and 5 items per batch. Schedules, larger batches and the one-click shortcuts described on this page need Pro.

Will new posts be added automatically?

With Pro, save the feed as a recipe with a schedule. New articles are imported while Chrome is open; already imported ones are skipped.

Yes. Every imported item becomes a source in the notebook and counts toward its source limit, which depends on your Google plan. To free up slots, see merge sources into one.
