Granola Announces $43M Series B and Launches Granola 2.0 to Redefine AI-Driven Meeting Intelligence

Granola, the AI-powered notepad designed for professionals in back-to-back meetings, today announced the launch of Granola 2.0 and a $43 million Series B funding round. The round is led by Nat Friedman, with participation from Lightspeed Venture Partners and Spark Capital.

Granola 2.0 gives users AI-powered access to the real-time context buried in their team’s meetings — capturing insights that aren’t stored in docs, wikis, or spreadsheets, but in conversations. The platform consolidates these interactions into a single, intelligent workspace that makes organizational knowledge searchable and actionable.

With this funding, Granola aims to accelerate its vision of building the AI workspace of the future.
