Granola runs on macOS, Windows, iOS, and (planned) Android, and positions itself against meeting-bot note-takers: it listens via the device's own microphone/audio rather than joining as a visible participant. Users type light notes during the call and Granola fills in detail from the transcript afterward.
Individuals and teams who want meeting notes without a visible bot in the call - the vendor's own llms.txt names founders/executives in sensitive meetings, VC partners, executive recruiters running confidential searches, product managers doing customer research, and sales teams (citing Brex, Vercel, Roblox as users).
Granola's own llms.txt excerpt lists who it says the product is not for: legal teams that need audio playback for verification (audio is deleted after transcription, per the vendor), organizations that require HIPAA compliance today, teams that want deep conversation analytics such as engagement scores, sentiment tracking, or talk-ratio metrics, and Android users, since only iOS and desktop are currently supported. API access and MCP integration are gated to the Business plan ($14/user/mo) and above, so teams on the free Basic plan cannot build on top of it.
No. Granola captures audio directly from your computer or device's microphone and audio output rather than joining meetings as a visible bot participant.
The vendor states audio is transcribed and then deleted, with no recordings stored - real-time transcription only.
Yes, the Basic plan is $0 per user per month with AI meeting notes, limited meeting history, and AI chat within and across meetings.
It is gated to Business plan and above.
The pricing page lists 'MCP integration in all your apps' as a Business-plan feature, and the help center lists a 'Granola MCP' topic, but we could not retrieve dedicated MCP documentation describing endpoint names, transport, or setup steps. Confirm current MCP capabilities directly with Granola.
macOS, Windows, and iOS today; Android is listed as planned, not yet available.
Per-seat monthly: Basic $0, Business $14/user/month, Enterprise $35+/user/month.
Granola's own materials explicitly list organizations requiring HIPAA compliance today as a group the product is not built for; the docs site has a dedicated 'Is Granola HIPAA compliant?' page but its content was not retrieved in this pass.
