I'm a big fan of Granola (I may or may not play janitor in their community Slack for reasons I can't exactly articulate!), and am super excited about their 2.0 launch.
Here's the update, along with a cool $43 million Series B, led by @natfriedman and @danicgross from NFDG, along with @mignano from Lightspeed and @nabeel from Spark:
Your company’s new collective brain: Shared team folders
Create folders for Sales Calls, Customer Feedback, Hiring Loops, Weekly Syncs and more.
Share a URL so anyone on your team (even without a Granola account) can read notes and chat with the AI.
Granola analyzes every transcript in the set and cites the exact lines, so your team moves from anecdotes to evidence in seconds.
Instant Project Folders — drag, drop, done
Need a quick workspace for a fundraise, feature launch, or customer deep-dive? Select a few meetings → drag into a new folder → invite collaborators. Everyone sees the same timeline and source-linked chat without a single copy-paste.
Chat with folders
Ask a question, write a memo, get an analysis or spot themes… Chat with folders to uncover insights from across multiple meetings. Every AI answer comes with inline citations and a jump-to-source link, so facts stay anchored to reality.
Best-in-class reasoning models — fully in your control
To pull out the most value from meetings notes and transcripts, we’re adding support for top models across providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc). We’re specifically adding support for reasoning models, which we’ve found to be able to do detailed analysis across large numbers of meetings. Leave Granola on Auto to pick the strongest option for long-range reasoning, or switch the dropdown to your favourite model whenever you like.
Browse folders across your company
Business & Enterprise users can open the new Browse view and hop into any public folder inside the domain — perfect for competitive intel, customer success, or onboarding new hires.
Smart suggestions: one-click organisation (soon)
Right after a meeting ends, Granola predicts the best folder based on title, participants, and past behaviour. One tap to accept; no more orphaned notes.
Slack auto-posting — keep the whole team in the loop
Connect a channel once and Granola posts concise summaries, action items, and a “Chat with this meeting” button the moment the call ends. Teammates who’ve never opened Granola still stay up-to-date in the tool they check all day.
Folder templates
Pick User Research, Sales Pipeline, or Interview Loop and Granola pre-loads folder structure, permissions, and starter chat prompts so your team knows exactly how to use it on Day 1.
@natfriedman@danicgross@mignano@nabeel@chrismessina I am wondering how the performance of Granola in the context of multi-language meeting. As you know, in some countries, people prefer to use local language mixed with English (or other language) in their meeting. The mixed language can impact the quality of meeting minutes or scripts.
@natfriedman@danicgross@mignano@nabeel@chrismessina Granola 2.0 looks like a team second brain – collaborative knowledge made easy. Supported it. Congrats on launch – I'm launching my product today too, feel free to check it out.
Hey gang! We spent a long time trying to figure out what the right sharing model in Granola should be. We wanted it to be simple and easy, but still keep Granola feeling like a private place where the user is in control. Hope you enjoy it
Hey Product hunt! This has been a long time in the works and has totally changed how I used Granola.
Pumped to finally get it in your hands. Let me know how you find it!
Granola 2.0 looks like a game-changer for team collaboration! The ability to consolidate all our conversations and unlock them with AI is impressive. Excited to see how this evolves!
Really like where Granola is headed – AI + centralized team comms is a powerful combo. Just launched Mukh.1 too – AI agents to take care of the boring stuff. Give it a try!
I've been using Granola, and I like version 2.0 even more. I think a good product should be like Granola: easy to use, effective, and with an elegant interface.
2.0 version of Granola really does feel like a “second brain” for teams—having an AI notepad quietly draft action items while I stay focused on the conversation: what a huge relief 🙌.
I love that highlights flow straight into a searchable knowledge base; I mean, no more hunting through random docs after every stand-up. A couple ideas from my first spin-up:
PM-tool hand-shake: a native push to Linear / ClickUp (labels, assignees, due dates) would let action items move from notes to backlog in one click.
Language flex: if Granola could auto-detect and segment transcripts by language, that’d be top for global teams.
Signal vs. noise: a “summary confidence” score or toggle to show only decisions vs. full transcript might help avoid overwhelm as the notebook grows.
Overall, a super tidy 2.0 version—can’t wait to see what lands next! 🚀
Granola 2.0 has completely transformed how our team handles meeting documentation and knowledge sharing! After struggling with scattered notes across different tools, having an AI-powered central hub for all our conversations is exactly what we needed.
What's really impressive is how it acts as a true "second brain" - it doesn't just store information, it helps you make connections between conversations and surface relevant insights when you need them. During meetings, it's like having an incredibly attentive assistant taking smart notes and highlighting key decisions.
The AI integration is thoughtfully done - it helps summarize lengthy discussions, extracts action items automatically, and can even answer questions about past meetings by pulling context from the entire conversation history. This has been a huge time-saver for team members who missed meetings or need to quickly get up to speed on previous discussions.
Been using it since their first launch in March, and this 2.0 version takes it to another level. The free tier is generous enough to really test it out. For any team drowning in meeting notes and trying to maintain institutional knowledge, Granola 2.0 is a must-try solution. No more lost decisions or repeated conversations! 🧠✨
Saw 2.0 announcement on twitter and boy love these updates. One thing that would be cool is to have an API for granola so others can utilize the powerful features it offers. Would love to hear about that.
The platform looks great! But when it comes to adoption - what are the main obstacles companies might face when transitioning to Granola? How easy is it to integrate it into existing workflows, and what are the key pain points you’re addressing? What do you think is the main motivator for companies to switch to your platform?

@space_dandy it's on the roadmap as I understand it, but it's not ideal right now.

Granola is the best note-taking tools I've used. I wish they had more integrations so I could automate workflows.

@rrhoover I agree! Which automations are most important to you?
