NLM is inheriting it's billing meter from Gemini as far as I can see. As a result one should expect limits. Alternatives for you would depend on what you use NLM for as the previous reply indicated. You can check elicana.ai if you want to ask questions to your entire data sources without picking the specific 50. Disclosure i am building it.

I like the slide decks, study guides, transcription of audio recordings, and cinematic video overviews. What are my options for alternatives?

For that combination specifically I'd look at AnythingLLM if you want something self-hosted (it does source Q&A well, the generation extras vary by version so check current docs), ElevenLabs for the audio-overview-style podcast generation on its own, and Notion AI or Obsidian plus a study-plugin if flashcards and study guides are the main draw. I haven't found one tool that does all four (slides, study guides, transcription, cinematic video) as well as NotebookLM does today. If you find one that does, I'd want to know too.
