Open Notebook on a Mac
Open-source, self-hosted NotebookLM alternative · AI / LLMs
Open Notebook is a privacy-first, open-source (MIT) research notebook — the self-hostable answer to Google's NotebookLM. Add links, PDFs, slides and YouTube as sources; get AI summaries, grounded Q&A and podcast-style audio, with you in control of what the AI sees. Supports 18+ providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Mistral, DeepSeek, xAI…) and local models via Ollama / LM Studio. This pane offers one-click Docker self-host (app + SurrealDB, web UI on :8502) and a from-source developer setup (uv + Node). Pairs with the AI Models pane for fully local use.
