Transcript

Support for Vergecast comes from Granola. Everyone's had a meeting where everything goes wrong. The Internet doesn't work, the presentation has a misspelling in it, you zone out at the most critical part, and you're desperately messaging a coworker to see if they can get you up to speed. Granola wants to help fix those meetings and meetings in general. Granola is an AI powered notepad built for the way real people actually meet. You simply take rough notes like you normally would, and in the background, Granola securely transcribes the meeting. Then it turns everything into clean, structured, actually useful notes when the meeting ends. And you want to know the best part? Granola works through your device's audio, which means it integrates seamlessly into the video conference tools you already use. No setup, no awkward bots. It's just your normal meeting with superpowers you need to do your job better. So if meetings are eating up your day, Granola is a no brainer. You could try it totally free for three months. Just head to granola.ai/verge. That's granola.ai/verge to get your time back. Get three months free at granola.ai/verge.
