The AI notepad for back-to-back meetings
Most AI note-takers just record your call and send a summary after.
Granola is different. It’s an AI notepad. You jot down what matters during the meeting, and Granola transcribes everything in the background.
When the call ends, it combines your notes with the full transcript to create summaries, action items, and next steps, all from your point of view.
Then the powerful part: chat with your notes. Write follow-up emails, pull out decisions, or prep for your next call, in seconds.
Think of it as a super-smart notes app that actually understands your meetings.
