Granola enhances your own meeting notes instead of replacing them. Plans start free to $18/mo, but there is no Windows app.
Granola works well when you want to maintain your personal note-taking style while using AI to structure and clean up your drafts. The friction starts when you need to collaborate across different operating systems, as the lack of a Windows or web application restricts cross-platform team workflows. Before buying, compare vs Hedy, which serves as a better alternative if you need deeper post-meeting analysis rather than just clean meeting notes.
Oleh KemFounder & Lead AnalystGranola overlays your typed shorthand on the full meeting transcript, filling in details you missed while still keeping your own voice in the output.
Define different note formats for standups, 1:1s, and client calls; Granola applies the matching template and structures the AI-enhanced notes accordingly.
Granola works without an active internet connection during the meeting, processing audio and syncing structured notes once connectivity returns.
