What they are
Granola
Granola captures device audio directly, no bot joins your call, no recording announcement plays, and enhances the rough notes you type during a meeting with context from the transcript. It works across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack huddles, and in-person sessions on Mac, Windows, and iOS. Popular with VCs, consultants, and sales teams who need accurate notes without a visible third-party participant. The free plan covers core note-taking, but meeting history is capped at 30 days until you upgrade.
Trint
Trint uses AI to transcribe audio and video files, then lets you edit the transcript as if it were a text document, with the media staying in sync. Journalists, podcasters, and video producers use it to speed up post-production and content repurposing. The transcript editor is genuinely well-designed, though the per-seat subscription cost makes it a harder sell for solo creators on a tight budget.
