Google One AI Premium adds popular NotebookLM Plus – at no extra charge

Google’s NotebookLM Audio Overview feature, which enables AI hosts to create a realistic podcast based on your content, has taken the world by storm. The experimental AI notebook combines LLMs with your notes to further your understanding of a topic and provide summaries, answer questions, and more — making it a powerful tool for users.

On Monday, Google announced that NotebookLM Plus was now available for users through the Google One AI Premium subscription of $19.99 per month, folding in advanced NotebookLM access with Google’s other advanced AI offerings for the same price. 

NotebookLM Plus

NotebookLM Plus offers premium, subscriber-only features and five times higher usage limits to some of NotebookLM’s greatest features including Audio Overviews, notebooks, queries, and sources per notebook. Google first introduced the Plus subscription for power users who incorporate the tool in their daily workflows.

At launch, however, the subscription was available only through eligible Workspace editions, such as Business Standard, Business Plus, Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus, or NotebookLM Plus for enterprise via Google Cloud. The new subscription makes it easier for users to access, and adds other valuable AI tools. 

Google One AI Premium

The Google One AI Premium subscription — Google’s top AI tier offering — includes Gemini Advanced, which grants users access to the most capable AI models, AI integration across Google apps, including Gemini in Gmail, Docs, 2 TB of storage, and unlimited Magic Editor saves in Google Photos.

Standout features in the premium plan include access to Deep Research, Google’s agentic feature that can conduct thorough research on your behalf by developing a plan, deep diving into web sources, and generating a comprehensive report with links to the original sources. 

How to enroll

Because of how robust the plan is and how helpful it could be for students, Google is also rolling out a new 50% student discount on the subscription for students in the US. With the discount, students 18 or older can enroll in the AI Premium plan for $9.99 per month, and they can get started by visiting the Google site. For all other users who want to try out the plan before shelling out the money, you can try a one-month free trial here.
