Details
Granola is a notepad for meetings. You jot rough notes during the call while Granola transcribes the audio from your computer, and afterwards it enhances your notes with what was said. Because it records device audio, nobody else in the meeting sees a bot.
It suits founders with back-to-back calls who want usable notes without an assistant in the room. You can chat with your notes across meetings, share folders and connect your notes to Claude or ChatGPT through MCP.
The free Basic plan has the core features but keeps only 30 days of history. Business, at $14 per user a month, adds unlimited history, follow-up emails, pre-meeting briefs and the integrations.
Pitch is presentations for people who care about design. Founded by Christian Reber (who built Wunderlist). Had a wild journey: raised $52M VC, then returned the money and went bootstrapped in 2024. Employees now own 80%. Interesting story of de-scaling.
