# Open Notebook
## Overview
Open Notebook is an open-source, self-hosted alternative to Google's NotebookLM that enables researchers to organize materials, generate AI-powered insights, create podcasts, and have context-aware conversations with their documents — all while maintaining complete data privacy.
Unlike Google's Notebook LM, which has no publicly available API outside of the Enterprise version, Open Notebook provides a comprehensive REST API, supports 16+ AI providers, and runs entirely on your own infrastructure.
**Key advantages over NotebookLM:**
- Full REST API for programmatic access and automation
- Choice of 16+ AI providers (not locked to Google models)
- Multi-speaker podcast generation with 1-4 customizable speakers (vs. 2-speaker limit)
- Complete data sovereignty through self-hosting
- Open source and fully extensible (MIT license)
