Cheaper alternatives to Granola

Granola’s strength is its notepad workflow on macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, without a meeting bot. If price or history is the issue:

  • Wave AI is free for 30 minutes of recording a month, and recordings stay in your library after the month ends. Wave Pro is $15 a month or $80 a year on the web, and Wave keeps the audio for replay.
  • Otter.ai: Pro is $8.33 a month billed yearly.
  • Fireflies.ai: Pro is $10 a seat a month billed yearly.
