Header and settings

The top of the Kortex side panel holds your account switcher, the Dashboard button and a three-dot menu of settings. The menu lets you turn features on or off, connect an AI assistant, manage billing, get help and sign out.

The ⋯ menu: your account, features, billing, help and sign out

What is in the header?​

  • The account switcher on the left. It shows which Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM) account Kortex is using. It appears when you use more than one Google account. Click it to switch.
  • Upgrade, on the free plan. It opens the plans.
  • Dashboard. It opens the big Kortex dashboard in a new tab. See the dashboard.
  • ⋯ (the three dots), which opens the menu below.
