Google built NotebookLM. Now a developer built a better version that turn your own files into a private AI research assistant. It's called Open Notebook. You can run it 100% locally. First upload your PDF file, YouTube videos, Audio files, Web pages or any documents. Then you can search anything, ask questions, generate summaries and even turn your sources into AI podcasts. It supports 18+ AI models. OpenAI, Claude, Ollama, LM Studio, and more. In my opinion, Open Notebook turns your data into a private AI research system. This is what researchers should be using. https://github.com/lfnovo/open-notebook
