Free NotebookLM prompt surfaces hidden contract penalties and deadlines with page citations
WorkflowTimeSaver · reddit · 2026-10-17
A Reddit user shares a simple, free workflow using Google's NotebookLM to digest long corporate documents. Upload the PDF, paste a fixed prompt asking it to list all hidden penalty clauses, late fees, and the top 5 critical deadlines, formatted with page-number citations.
Key advantages:
- No hallucinations: the model is locked to your uploaded files only, unlike generic ChatGPT summaries
- Instant citations: every point links to an exact page you can verify
- Bonus: the Audio Overview feature turns the PDF into a discussion-style podcast for commutes
The exact prompt is included and ready to copy.
