Key leaders behind Google’s viral NotebookLM are leaving to create their own startup


Core members of Google's NotebookLM team are exiting to launch a startup, sharing some details exclusively with TechCrunch.

It’s not clear if the startup will focus on things that NotebookLM went viral for such as AI-generated podcasts and AI-assisted notetaking, or do something totally different. In comments to TechCrunch, Martin gave few details but hinted that the startup would be consumer-facing, emphasizing the team wanted to create something that leverages the latest AI models to build something useful to regular people. However, she noted that “support outside of Google (from fellow founders, investors, academics, people who want to join) has been tremendous and it’s been really encouraging for our small team.”
