Overview
Granola is an AI-assisted meeting notepad that captures audio from the user’s device rather than joining as a visible participant. It combines typed notes with the transcript to produce summaries, action items and contextual answers.
The service suits interviews, internal meetings and customer calls when users want to retain control over the final notes. Desktop and mobile apps broaden access, while the free tier mainly limits how much note history remains directly visible.
