Granola on X
Granola's conversation is led by users who call it the best AI note taker they have used and run their follow-ups from its notes; complaints are spread thin across app rough edges and transcription failures, and the comparison people keep making is to Wispr Flow over dictation.

How do people feel about Granola?
30 of the 45 people in the section are plain, emphatic fans who call it the best AI note taker they have used. The 4 who came away unimpressed point at transcription accuracy and at recordings that are not kept.
Praise is often a sentence long: one user said they were "granola pilled", a founder reported that the whole company now uses it, and others recommend it without qualification. It gets specific where the product held up in a real meeting — one user's meeting held entirely in Russian was transcribed and written up well enough to review their plan from, and another uses the notes to hold counterparties to what they said. A few treat the model toggle as the lever that makes output usable, and one called the new auto-categorisation a quality-of-life improvement.
7 people describe a workflow rather than a feeling: brief the meeting, record automatically, ask questions mid-call, then push the summary into Claude, ClickUp, Figma or Gamma. 2 rate the design first — simple, elegant, quick to set up.
The doubters are fewer. One put the word error rate near 50%, another called the notes block "over-engineered" and wanted only the full transcript, and one wanted to love it but could not get past the absence of video recordings. 2 like it overall but want dictation closer to Wispr Flow and say the chat needs work.

Granola is hands down the best AI note taker on the market because of how they design new features. So I asked @p44v9n to give a sneak peek into how @meetgranola team designs new features and took some notes: 1. Everyone at Granola is supposed to talk to a user once a week. Not
@meetgranola is amazing! I did a meeting today with another Ukrainian and we both speak Russian so did the meeting all in Russian. I thought, no way Granola picked any of that up! It did!! Gave me a whole write up and now we are using it to review our plan!
the @meetgranola app is so sleek, its a pity its main function of speech to text is so horrible the word error rate is like 50% acceptable for 2019 standards
For consumer productivity apps (and most other consumer apps), elegance is the new moat. I've tried @meetgranola and its really simple. its the type of thing you could vibecode in a day. But i'll still use granola because its so elegant, beautifully designed, and easy to use. Same with @WisprFlow . Its just so easy for me caps lock, transcribe, and be done with it. Its reliable fast and snappy. The formula imo is: - create something super elegant and easy to use, that someone can get set up in a few minutes - make it look really satisfying and like an awesome experience to use in marketing - establish a data moat so switching sucks - integrate really well with existing tools and AI workflows.

Pain points· 11 posts· written 27 Oct
What do people complain about with Granola?
No one complaint dominates: the largest is rough edges in the app, 5 people, with 3 on crashes and bad transcripts, 2 on audio and video that are not kept, and one person locked out at sign-up.
The largest theme is interface-level. Cmd+K puts "share with" at the top where people expect search, which one user said has "almost been caught out" them more than once; the screen for transferring notes to another account was missing its destination input entirely; and speakers come through as numbered voices until someone renames each one by hand. One wanted less note structure and only the transcript, and another asked for some attention to the chat.
Fewer, but heavier: a Mac froze consistently whenever it ran during meetings, transcription would not turn on at all, and one put the word error rate near 50% — "acceptable for 2019 standards".
2 miss what is not kept — no video recordings alongside the notes, and a request to include the audio so there is something to check a misheard name or number against. One person could not get in at all, because an Indian phone number would not verify.

@meetgranola cmd + k -> enter search term -> having "share with" as the top option doesn't make sense to me. should be search first, then share with as per 99% of cmd + k "operations" (?). almost been caught out many times. thanks!
having some issues with @meetgranola not turning on transcription (frustrating) so using @WisprFlow instead for the moment. but really missing granola's speaker detection vs just having "you" and "them" on Wispr, especially in group calls where i want to capture who said what
.@meetgranola - I tried you out this week, but my Mac consistently froze up when I had it going during meetings. There is a possibility that it was a coincidence, but the two were very strongly correlated. Known issue?
@meetgranola i'm trying to transfer notes to a different account and the input to select a destination is missing
wanted to love granola but couldn’t get over the fact they don’t keep video recordings ):

What are the alternatives to Granola?
Wispr Flow is the weightiest comparison, 8 of the section's 16 people, and the argument is dictation. The rest are one or two people each: local-only tools, Notion's new charges, taking your own notes, Fathom in AI answers.
One long-time Wispr Flow user cancelled after Granola's voice typing arrived, putting the switching cost at "about 20 seconds" and liking that the same dictionary serves meeting transcripts and typing. Others had said in advance they would switch when dictation shipped, and one expects to need only one subscription between the two. One user misses Granola's speaker detection when working in Flow, where the labels are just "you" and "them", and another notes Flow still has no iOS app.
Outside that pairing the comparisons are single voices: Google's local-only, offline transcription weighed as a possible "killer" with doubts about how long it lasts; a local alternative tested in Spanish on Teams that transcribed badly; the advice to take your own notes for a week before automating; pen and paper or a Kindle Scribe; Notion charging credits for meeting notes from December 1, which moved one Business user over; one who went back to ChatGPT's Meetings plugin; and an AI-answer tally that put Fathom first on comparison questions. One uses it only because the company's Enterprise plan pays.

cancelled wisprflow after being a long time user, only because today @meetgranola introduced the same functionality, and it feels 100% the same. the switching cost was about 20 seconds, and I like that the same dictionary that was used for meeting transcriptions is being used everywhere.
True. @WisprFlow went for Granola w/ Notetaker on the desktop. But 2 months later there is still no iOS integration.
@WisprFlow now does note-taking. @meetgranola now does voice typing. At this rate, I’ll probably only need one subscription by the end of the year. Granola has a slight edge for me right now.

Wow! Google has a local-only @meetgranola killer 👀 Offline and 100% local meeting transcriptions that can use supplemental reference material sounds great, but how long do you think it'll last before it ends up in the Google graveyard? link

Questions· 6 posts from 5 people· written 27 Oct
What do people ask about Granola?
4 of the section's 5 people ask whether it works where they work — Linux, Google Meet, iPhone languages, split-screen on the Duo. One person asks how to mute themselves without stopping the transcription.
The setup questions are concrete. A Mac user asks for a Linux version, because notes saved to the cloud and available on every machine are the part they would miss. One asks whether it works in Google Meet and whether it records who said what. One, praising the new Swedish support, asks when the extended language support reaches iPhone. One asks whether it runs split-screen on the iPhone Duo and can record a conversation from there.
The other question is about control while recording. Someone in a long meeting who needed to take another call wanted the meeting transcribed but their own voice muted, and said it was not clear how — "It's not clear!" — adding that running it in the background on a Zoom call means it still picks up their voice.
- Will it work with my setup?4
- How do I mute myself while it records?2

Hey @OmarchyLinux folks, One of the last tools I need from my Mac is Granola. I know there are meeting recorders, but it being saved to the cloud and available across all my machines is really nice. Has someone commercialized a similar granola type feature? Also @meetgranola any
@meetgranola I'm in a very looong meeting Need to take a call. I still want the call to be recorded without stopping transcription for the whole meeting... how can I mute myself only? It's not clear! I've sent you my resume, happy to help you build this. Thanks @samstphenson
I'm actually using granola in the background for an online zoom call, so if I did that, Granola will still pick up my voice because it's recording in the background
funciona no google meets? e ele grava por exemplo quem foi a pessoa que disse cada coisa?
Love that Granola now supports Swedish (and more languages)! Will you bring the extended language support soon to iPhone as well? 🙏

Wishes· 14 posts from 12 people· written 27 Oct
What do people want from Granola?
Dictation that matches Wispr Flow is the biggest wish, 4 of the section's 12 people. Behind it are smaller asks: the audio kept with the notes, settings per device rather than per account, and an always-on recorder feeding a company brain.
On dictation, people compare it feature by feature with Wispr Flow: creating lists, changing tone, and a "scratch that" that deletes what was just said. Several said they would drop Flow for it; one, after it shipped, said they no longer need Flow but want those extras.
2 wish the audio stayed with the notes, so a misheard name or number could be checked against the recording. 2 want it always on: founders in a coworking space asked for all their conversations recorded and a company brain updated from them, with priorities pushed to Linear, and one said customers would pay for that.
The rest are single asks: Mac settings that follow the machine rather than the account, so an agent's Mac Mini can differ from a laptop; weekly feedback on verbal communication with goals tracked over time; notes on a foldable inner screen that feel like a notebook; speakers told apart by the timbre of their voice.
- Dictation to rival Whisper Flow5
- Keep the audio with the notes2
- Always-on, feeding a company brain2
- Settings per device, not per account2
- Feedback on how they communicate1
- Notebook feel on the Duo's inner screen1

So no one's going to talk about how @meetgranola just secretly added the dictation feature and how I no longer need Flow? If im being Picky: It would be nice if you could have the dictation work like Whisper Flow in terms of creating the list, changing tone format. And when I
When @meetgranola releases their dictation, I’m switching. Wispr has always been sus to me
@WisprFlow now does note-taking. @meetgranola now does voice typing. At this rate, I’ll probably only need one subscription by the end of the year. Granola has a slight edge for me right now.
Keeping the audio is underrated. When the transcript mishears a name or number, the recording is how you check.
Request for startups from my coworking space the founders asked me for something that records all their conversations and then updates a company brain and also visually updates priorities in Linear I told them about Owl, one I knew but it's expensive and not sure would do a good job at the semantic understanding One way could be to always have @meetgranola on - possible @theshre @cjpedregal @samstphenson? if so I have customers who would pay $1K for this. Also know software providers who can help with the company brain bit
