Granola

Granola is an AI notepad designed for people in back-to-back meetings. It helps you stay focused while it transcribes in the background, then turns what was said into useful notes, actions, and follow-ups—so you can move on immediately after the call.

With Granola, you don’t have to manage a meeting bot. It uses your computer audio so it doesn’t interrupt your flow, and it works across meeting apps like Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Huddles, and in-person conversations. Before a meeting, it can sync with your calendar to prepare a Brief that pulls in context such as who’s attending and what matters now.

After the meeting, Granola is built to reduce admin time. Notes and action items are ready right away, along with follow-ups you can use to draft emails or continue planning work. You can also keep the conversation going with Granola Chat, an AI chat that’s aware of what you’re working on, helping answer practical “meeting memory” questions.

Granola is available for macOS, Windows, iOS, and Android. Download it for free, take as many notes as you’d like, and upgrade if you want to view and work with notes older than 30 days. It also offers a mobile experience for capturing notes on the go, and an Apple Watch option.

How does Granola capture meeting notes without joining my meetings?

Which meeting apps and formats does Granola work with?

What do I get at the end of a meeting?

You get meeting notes plus action items and follow-ups ready right when the meeting ends. These are meant to help you move forward on admin immediately.

Can Granola help me prepare before a meeting?

Yes. Granola syncs with your calendar and can generate a Brief before external meetings with context such as who’s attending and what was discussed last time.

Is there a free plan?

What is Granola Chat?

Granola Chat is an AI chat that uses meeting memory so you can ask questions like what you promised to do in your meetings that week. It’s meant to keep your meeting context available.
