Puts NotebookLM To SHAME!!!
I've been using Notebook LM, but I have five different brands, and I found myself opening up five different Notebook LMs and having to go back and forth. It became overwhelming, so I took a second look at this tool. The reason I say second look is because this tool has been on the platform forever, and I saw it, but I guess I really didn't dive deep into it. When I read the description and a few reviews, it sounded like it could be a notebook LM replacement, where I could have one place to go to instead of five different brand locations. After using it for one day, it delivered and completely freed me from the notebook LM.
PROS:
1. I love the Chrome extension and your ability to take notes on the fly and store articles, snippets, and YouTube videos in designated collections. The summarization and built-in LLM are like owning multiple tools all wrapped into one package.
2. I love the mobile app. It's very convenient, easily accessible, and just great to have. Thanks for making this feature available early in your MVP stage.
CONS:
1. It would be nice to have a desktop install version as this requires me to keep a separate tab open, but I had to do the same thing with NotebookLM, so I guess this is only a 'partial con'.
2. You only have ONE Workspace: It would be nice to have multiple workspaces, considering Tier 3 allows unlimited content. I tried to open a separate workspace for a second brand. I realized I would have to pay again for an individual workspace as mentioned to be my prior use of NotebookLM - I was using five different notebooks because being a self-declared anal type A personality - I like to keep things separate. With MyMemo.ai - everything is all on the same workspace, which I can picture being overwhelming and kinda driving me crazy in about a month.
3. Uploads/Summarizations are VERY SLOW: As mentioned previously, I enjoy the summary feature, but it takes so long that I normally have to go to another tab, work on something else, and come back. Sometimes, it's still not done. It's real, real slow.
If you are a notebook LM user and, as opposed to using notebook LM, even though it's free for now, you never know what could happen, and you want to have your lifetime deal situation, this is your purchase. Hopefully, the ability to have multiple workspaces will be a feature they add in the future because it is annoying that everything has to be in one workspace. Still, I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
5 TACOS STRONG! This is a definite purchase for anyone who utilizes and loves all the features of Notebook LM. I consider MyMemo.ai to exceed the functionality of Notebook LM on steroids, nearly, but the only drawback for those of us with multiple brands who like to keep things separated by workspaces is that this tool may disappoint.

Edited Jul 10, 2025Hi TessMD!
Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful review — we truly appreciate the time and care you put into writing it. It means a lot to our small team! 💛
Just a quick note: if you're using a Mac with an Apple silicon chip (like M1, M2, or M3), you can actually download and run our desktop version that’s optimized for macOS. Let us know if you’d like help setting that up!
Also, we’ve added free usage credits for Team Workspace to all accounts — just in case having separate spaces for different brands might help a little in the meantime. 😊
Thanks again for supporting MyMemo — we’re so happy to have you with us!
Warmly,
Tony & the MyMemo Team
