Why this workflow

What operators actually keep

Honest method note

PDF upload and auto-merge are not shipped. Do not wait for a magic “PDF + YouTube” button. NoteLM Workspace — turn YouTube and docs into a compounding notebook you approve.

How do operators finish a YouTube video paired with a PDF you already have into a notebook?

Do operators need a NoteLM account for PDF + YouTube howto?
