What sets Grafite apart
The differences that matter
Zero installs. Zero IT.
Grafite is a pure web app. No desktop software, no browser extensions, no mobile app to download. Open any browser, sign in, and you're ready. That means no IT approval process and no waiting.
vs. others: Granola requires a Mac or Windows desktop app. Otter offers a Chrome extension and mobile apps. Notion requires the Notion app. Grafite just needs a browser.
Your own personal people directory.
Grafite automatically tracks the people you meet with and builds a personal directory — names, companies, meeting history — without you doing anything. It's like having a lightweight personal CRM that fills itself in.
vs. others: Other tools focus on meeting capture but don't track your relationships. For people tracking, you'd normally need a separate CRM or manually maintained spreadsheet.
Everything in one place.
Most tools do one thing well — recording, or notes, or tasks. Grafite combines meeting capture, AI summaries, a rich note editor, task tracking, people directory, and conversational AI into a single tab. No juggling between apps.
vs. others: Granola excels at meeting notes but doesn't do tasks or people tracking. Otter/Fireflies focus on transcription with CRM integrations (not built-in). Notion is powerful but requires significant setup.
Personal by design.
Your Grafite account belongs to you — it's tied to your personal login. The notes you take, the people you track, and the knowledge you build are yours to keep as your career evolves.
vs. others: Notion workspaces are typically owned by your employer. Otter/Fireflies enterprise accounts may be administered by your company. Grafite is personal-first.
Questions
Can I switch from another tool to Grafite?
Yes — just sign up and start using Grafite alongside your existing tools. Since Grafite is browser-based, there's nothing to install or migrate. You can transition gradually at your own pace.
Will Grafite replace my existing note-taking app?
Grafite can replace multiple tools at once — your meeting recorder, note app, task manager, and people tracker. Most users find they no longer need separate tools for each of these.
Does Grafite work with my calendar?
Yes. Grafite connects to Google Calendar and Microsoft Calendar (Outlook). Your meetings sync automatically, and you can join calls directly from the Grafite agenda view.
Is Grafite secure enough for sensitive meetings?
Your data is stored securely and only accessible to you. There are no meeting bots — recording happens locally on your device through your browser.
AI processing uses enterprise-grade APIs (Groq for transcription, Google Gemini for summaries) with no data retention — your content is processed and discarded.
How does pricing compare?
Grafite is currently 100% free during the beta period. When paid plans launch, early adopters receive a lifetime discount. Our goal is to be significantly more affordable than competing products that charge $20-30/month.
