NotebookLM Limits (Now Gemini Notebook): Free vs Paid
Short answer: NotebookLM is now called Gemini Notebook in Google's help pages. The free plan allows up to 100 notebooks and 50 sources per notebook, with each source up to 500,000 words or 200MB. Everything else (chat, Audio Overviews, reports) now runs on a usage budget that refreshes every 5 hours until a weekly limit. Google doesn't publish daily counts, so older "50 chats a day" figures are no longer official.
