Granola

Granola is an AI notepad for back-to-back meetings. It captures audio directly from the user's computer (no meeting bot), enhances handwritten notes with AI, and supports post-meeting tasks like follow-up drafting, action item extraction, and chat over the transcript. Works across Zoom, Google Meet, Webex, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. Granola exposes a public Granola API (Business and Enterprise plans) for programmatic access to notes, transcripts, and folders, plus an MCP server for conversational AI clients. Webhooks are on the roadmap; Zapier covers event-style automation today.

Granola publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Notes API. Tagged areas include AI, Meeting Notes, Transcription, Productivity, and API.

Granola’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 10 more developer resources.
