Bot-free AI meeting notes — invisible, private, distraction-free
Granola is an AI meeting assistant that captures audio directly from your device without joining as a visible bot participant. Unlike Otter.ai or Fireflies, no recording notification appears in the meeting. It combines your personal notes with full AI transcription, then generates summaries, action items, and key decisions when the meeting ends. Particularly popular in the VC and consulting community where discretion matters.
