Granola
Application
AI notepad that listens to a meeting, merges the transcript with the user's own typed notes and writes the meeting up afterwards.
Chat over everything Granola has captured, so a question can be answered from past meetings rather than a single note.
Slack
Application
Team messaging platform for channels, direct messages and huddles, sold in Free, Pro, Business+ and Enterprise+ tiers.
Bundle of AI features built into Slack -- channel and thread summaries, daily recaps, AI search answers, huddle notes, translation and AI-assisted workflows -- unlocked from Pro through Enterprise+ (none of it ships on Free), distinct from the standalone Slackbot agent.
No counterpart
Slack sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Granola yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
AI agent
Personal AI agent built into Slack that answers from a user's messages, files and channels, drafts content, schedules meetings and takes actions, within existing permissions.
