Use the doodle style as a readability rule, not decoration

When you want a NotebookLM infographic prompt to feel like a hand-drawn notebook, simply asking for “rough” or “cute” can produce messy text and scattered ideas. The useful move is to pair the visual style with information rules.

A BananaX 300 category such as Doodle / Notebook / Blue Ink gives you a friendly starting point for meeting notes and study notes. Specify blue ink, ruled paper, hand-drawn arrows, short headings, and a tight number of points.

Once a category prompt works, keeping it near the input field is easier than searching and pasting it again.

What to decide first

  1. Name the source: meeting notes, class notes, or planning notes need different density.
  2. Limit the points. Ask for three blocks, five items, or one cause-and-effect chain before asking for style.
  3. Fix the visual words: blue ink, notebook lines, hand-drawn arrows, circles, and generous spacing.
  4. Add avoid rules: no tiny unreadable text, long paragraphs, heavy decoration, or logo-like elements.

Category prompts to try in NotebookLM or Gemini

Turn meeting notes into a doodle notebook visual

Turn these meeting notes into a one-page Doodle / Notebook / Blue Ink style infographic. Use blue ink, light notebook lines, circles, and short hand-drawn arrows. Split the page into three blocks: decisions, open questions, and next actions. Avoid long paragraphs and tiny unreadable text.

It combines the visual category with a clear three-block structure.

Make study notes into notebook cards

Turn this learning material into hand-drawn notebook review cards. Use no more than three headings, one short sentence per heading, blue ink, wide spacing, and circled key terms. Avoid crowded decoration and small text.

The point and text limits stop the notebook visual from becoming crowded.

Map cause and effect with blue arrows

Extract cause, change, result, and next test from this idea note. Make a notebook-style visual connected with blue hand-drawn arrows. Each box should have a short heading and one sentence only. Mark facts and assumptions differently if they are mixed.

It keeps the discussion flow traceable and separates facts from assumptions.

If you keep re-searching category prompts, use BananaNL
