Use Gemini Notebooks to Ground AI in Your Own Documents and Data
Consolidate research by grounding Gemini in your specific files and websites.
Upload files and add website URLs directly into Gemini's Notebook interface to create a focused knowledge base for targeted analysis.

The Scenario
You are preparing a research brief and need to synthesize information from three different industry reports and two competitor websites.
Before & after
The old way
Manually reading through multiple documents and cross-referencing notes to find key insights takes 60–90 minutes.
With AI
Use Gemini's Notebook feature to upload relevant PDF reports or website links, then ask for a summary. This takes about 3–5 minutes.
The Prompt
Analyze the attached documents and the content from [URL]. Provide a summary of the three most critical insights related to [TOPIC] and how they conflict or align across sources.
Gemini's 'Notebooks' feature allows for grounded analysis by using specific files and web sources as context, reducing hallucinations and improving relevance.
