Granola captures meeting audio from the computer itself, so no bot joins the call, and at $14/user/month on the Business plan it costs less than one billable hour per seat per month.

Why does it matter for agencies?
Granola captures meeting audio from the computer itself, so no bot joins the call, and at $14/user/month on the Business plan it costs less than one billable hour per seat per month. For agencies running back-to-back client calls, that means every discovery call, QBR, and scope conversation becomes searchable, structured, and pushable into HubSpot, Attio, Affinity, or Notion without a delivery hire touching a notepad. The catch is branding: Granola publishes no white-label program, so it works as internal margin protection, not as a client-facing deliverable.
