Granola vs Tactiq: Features, Pricing and User Reviews 2026

Granola is an AI notepad built for people who spend their day in back-to-back meetings. Instead of sending a bot into your call, it runs quietly in the background on your device, listens to the conversation, and blends it with any rough notes you type.

After the meeting, it turns everything into clear notes with highlights, decisions, and action items you can edit and share. It works across video calls, phone calls, and in-person conversations, and keeps your notes private unless you choose to share them.

Granola also remembers your meeting history, so you can search past conversations or chat with an AI assistant to find what was discussed or promised, saving you time on manual note taking.

Tactiq is an AI powered meeting note taker that joins your calls without a bot. It works right inside Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams through a Chrome extension, picking up the live captions from the meeting platform itself instead of recording audio.

As the meeting runs, Tactiq shows a live transcript in a side panel. You can highlight key moments, tag action items, ask the AI questions about what was said, and take screenshots, all while the conversation is still happening.

Once the call ends, Tactiq can turn the transcript into a summary, a list of action items with owners, or a follow up email in one click. Everything is saved to your account so you can search across past meetings and share notes with your team.

There is a free plan for light use, paid plans for individuals and teams, and a custom Enterprise plan for larger companies that need extra security and admin controls.
