Granola.

If you're already using Claude or ChatGPT for complex work, you know the drill: you feed it research docs, spreadsheets, project briefs... and then manually copy-paste meeting notes to give it the full picture.

What if your AI could just access your meeting context automatically?

Granola's new Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration connects your meeting notes to your AI app of choice.

Ask Claude to review last week's client meetings and update your CRM. Have ChatGPT extract tasks from multiple conversations and organize them in Linear. Turn meeting insights into automated workflows without missing a beat.

Perfect for engineers, PMs, and operators who want their AI to actually understand their work.
