Not just what they do, but how they do it

Granola is an app that captures meeting audio and enhancing the notes you type yourself. Supernormal also offers a desktop app for documenting meetings automatically, creating summaries and providing pre-built AI agents that complete work based on this context. Here's how their feature sets compare in practice.

How they capture

The Supernormal app runs on your computer and captures your meetings without a bot. The app works for scheduled calls or impromptu huddles. You get a transcript, summary, and suggested next steps, and you build a library of meetings to reference when using Supernormal's AI agents to complete your work.

Granola also captures meeting audio without bots. The app works across Zoom, Meet, and Slack by transcribing in the background while you take notes.

What they produce

Supernormal generates a clean summary automatically. The desktop app captures the full transcript and pairs it with smart suggestions you can turn into action. In the web app you can then reference individual meetings or all the meetings associated with a particular project as context for presentations, spreadsheets, documents, or anything else you need Supernormal's agents to work on.

Granola enhances your notes after meetings with AI-suggested edits and additions. You see your original input alongside a lightly structured version that helps you reflect and refine. You then need to switch to a different tool to complete related tasks.

How you follow up

Supernormal generates drafts directly from conversations and opens them in your preferred work tools, so you can complete and send them without friction. Connect Supernormal's agents to meetings and other context like your email inbox to generate other outputs like slides, spreadsheets, or images.

Granola highlights priorities from the transcript but doesn't support task creation or integrations. Follow-ups are manual.
