🧠 NotebookLM Just Went Public

Why That Matters for Contractors

Google just rolled out a big update:
NotebookLM now supports public notebooks.
That’s a game changer — especially if your projects are spread across folders, PDFs, or scope docs.

🔗 Read the announcement here.

If you haven’t tried it yet, NotebookLM is like having an AI assistant that actually knows your material.

You feed it your files — like job notes, estimates, inspection reports, or training manuals — and it builds a smart notebook. Then, instead of digging through everything manually, you can just ask questions like:

“What were the key issues on the Franklin job?”
“Summarize all change orders from last month.”
“What’s our warranty policy on roofing materials?”

Now with public notebooks, you can share those AI-powered workspaces with clients or team members — and they’ll get real answers based on your docs, not random internet junk.

No fluff. No training needed.
Just drop the files and go.

Why it matters:
This turns your messy folder into a live, searchable, sharable system — powered by your real work, not generic AI.

It’s the closest thing we’ve seen to plug-and-play knowledge management for contractors.

Try it with a folder you’re sick of organizing.
You’ll get it fast — and you won’t want to go back.
