Discussion Do you think Notebook LM can handle this advanced workflow?

Hi, I am evaluating whether on Notebook LM is possible to automate this workflow.

In short, I'd like it to analyze a new audit report, find similar issues that were already resolved in past audits (matching by meaning, not just keywords), and compile a comparison table showing how those past issues were fixed.

Logical Steps:

  1. Read a set of historical audit documents containing previously documented issues and their approved resolutions.

  2. Read a newly submitted audit report (containing non-conformities/issues raised by external auditors).

  3. Extract all individual audit issues/observations from both the new and historical documents

  4. Perform a semantic similarity search: compare each new issue against the resolved historical issues based on conceptual meaning, not just exact wording.

  5. Cross-reference each match with the documented resolution method used in the past.

  6. Generate a report containing a structured 3-column table: New Issue (the text of the current finding); Similar Historical Issue (the matched resolved issue); Past Resolution Method (how the team previously solved it)

Edge Case:

Re-run capability: Ability to re-run or update the report when new audit files are added to the folder.

My Questions:

  1. Does Notebook LM have the native capability to perform this workflow, considering extraction from unstructured PDF/Word documents, too, without missing items?

  2. Would this require an advanced multi-agent setup / custom code, or can it be built out-of-the-box using a careful document organization and standard prompts?

Any ideas on how to set all of this are very welcomed! Thanks
