Transparency
How Granola lets people know when notes are being taken
Granola works in the background to transcribe meetings. We offer multiple ways to keep attendees informed without interrupting the flow of conversation.
The trusted notepad for
Transparency is a design principle
Great conversations require trust. That’s why we’ve built tools to show the people you meet with when Granola is taking notes.
Granola sends a message in the chat so everyone knows it's transcribing
- Automatic, so you don't have to think twice about it
- Keeps participants informed without interrupting the conversation
Show a watermark on your video so everyone in the meeting can see that Granola is active
- Stays on throughout the call, so even late joiners are aware
- Shows when you're transcribing and turns off when you're not
Transparency features are available across Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams
For individuals
Available on all plansAny user can turn on these features so they automatically show whenever Granola is on.
For businesses
Enterprise planAdmins can choose which transparency features to use across their workspace and enforce them from central controls.
Meetings are your best source of knowledge
AI note-taking is a new category. People can now fully incorporate ideas and decisions from meetings into their work, turning meetings into some of the most valuable data and context a company has. That raises the stakes for how they’re captured.
Granola keeps people present in the conversation, keeps everyone you meet with informed and keeps what’s said safe.
What IT and legal need to know
Keeping participants informed is a shared responsibility. In a world of back-to-back meetings, we’re investing in making this as clear and seamless as possible.
A dedicated trust team
We have a product team focused specifically on the ins and outs of trust and transparency.
Private by default
You control who sees your notes, so they're never shared unless you want them to be. You can request deletion of all your data at any time.
Partnership with global organisations
We're working with large companies to find solutions that account for the nuances of meetings, regional needs, and company culture, while keeping calmness and trust at the forefront.
“AI transcription tools can be game-changing — but they also introduce serious security and privacy concerns. Granola enables us to capitalise on this technology without budging on our compliance commitments.”
