Granola
AI-powered notepad enhancing and transcribing meeting notes
About Granola
Granola is an AI-powered workspace that started as a smart notetaker and evolved into a daily tool for founders and teams. Launched in 2023 by Chris Pedregal (previously founder of Socratic, acquired by Google), Granola gained traction through word of mouth among startups and investors. It combines accurate meeting transcripts with human-editable notes, letting users capture, edit, and query all their conversations and thoughts in one place.

Unlike traditional transcription tools, Granola is designed to be open all day—used not just during meetings but throughout the workday. Granola now helps teams centralize and search knowledge from sales, hiring, and customer feedback.
With its blend of automation and user control, Granola is quietly becoming a foundational layer for how modern teams remember, organize, and collaborate.
