Grain
The AI Notetaker Built for Growing Teams
Grain is an AI notetaker and conversation intelligence platform that records video calls, Slack huddles, and in-person meetings, producing transcripts, summaries, action items, and coaching feedback. It can capture audio without a meeting bot, enrich transcripts with participant and cross-meeting context, and deliver meeting data to AI tools such as Claude and ChatGPT via export, MCP server, and API.
Core capabilities include bot-less transcription, video recording with a bot, capture rules, enriched transcripts in Markdown, in-meeting notes and clips, AI notes and action items, an in-app question feature with citations, and sharing through Teams. Integrations cover Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Aircall, Productboard, Zapier, and an API. Security includes SOC 2 Type II certification, SSO for enterprise workspaces, and data hosted on AWS in the USA.
Grain is aimed at teams that rely on meetings, with a stated focus on sales, customer success, and product teams. It is packaged with a free plan per seat offering unlimited recordings, transcripts, basic AI notes, a collaborative workspace, and desktop capture, subject to meeting length and history limits; paid tiers add advanced AI, conversational intelligence, and additional features, with a 14-day free trial available.
