The NotebookLM alternative

The NotebookLM alternative with an editable script

NotebookLM generates the audio for you. Sprep lets you read, rewrite and approve every word first, so the audio you ship is on-brand, approved by your legal and comms teams, and ready for an audience. Then it adds custom voices, 70+ languages, and distribution outside Google's walls.

Why teams switch

What makes Sprep different

100% editorial control

Every script is fully editable in the Script Editor. Compliance, legal, and comms approve every word before any audio is rendered. Nothing reaches your audience until a human approves it.

Real podcast structure, not text-to-speech

Sprep restructures your document into chapters, conversational pacing and dialogue. Generic TTS reads bullet points; Sprep produces audio people actually finish.

70+ languages from one validated script

Approve once in your master language. Sprep generates studio-quality audio in 70+ languages, without re-recording or re-translating one document at a time.

Voice cloning that scales the CEO's calendar

Capture an executive's voice once, securely. Comms drafts the script, you approve, audio renders in their authentic voice, no studio booking required.

Swiss-built. GDPR-compliant. Enterprise-ready.

Documents and audio stay in your workspace. Enterprise customers get Swiss hosting, SSO and dedicated infrastructure for regulated environments.

A first draft in under 15 minutes. Ship as soon as it's approved.

Skip the studio, the host, the audio engineer and the 12-hour edit cycle. Upload, approve, ship. Same morning.

Sprep vs NotebookLM

Where NotebookLM stops, Sprep ships

NotebookLM, now called Gemini Notebook, is a remarkable research tool. It is multilingual, with an enterprise tier inside Google Workspace. Sprep is built for the next step: audio that has to pass legal review, sound like your brand, and reach your audience outside Google's walls.
