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 Artificial Intelligence, Meeting Notes, Transcription, Productivity, and MCP.

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

Create-or-Update Ergonomics does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to upsert.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/granola: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
