Where Gemini Notebook fits
Choose it when you want to discuss a defined collection of sources rather than an open-ended topic.
Check before you choose
Follow cited passages back to the source and verify what the source actually supports.
Find the right edition
Start with the destination for your device or the publisher's website. Use the current requirements and terms there to confirm the edition you need.
Compare the workflow
Start by deciding whether your task needs a hosted service or a model running on your own hardware. A chat assistant, a code editor and a local runtime solve different problems even when they use similar models.
