We are sponsored this week by Granola. So, I have an odd job—not the bad guy—but a unique job wherein I don't really have meetings, but we wanted to make sure that Granola was the real thing. And so John and I had a meeting and we talked about ATP membership stuff and we talked for like something like an hour, hour and a half. And while we were talking, Granola was there listening and capturing meeting notes for us and a transcript as well. And this worked out really well because one of my big failings when I had a jobby job was that I would oftentimes record the bare minimum amount of action items, particularly for myself, that I would then look back on later and be like, I have no idea what these words mean. And I'm the one who wrote them. I lost the context completely. So, Granola is an AI-powered notepad that makes your meeting notes look useful. It captures what happens in your meetings and turns it into clean structured notes with decisions and action items pulled out and made easy to find.
So, like I said, action items are pulled out and made easy to find. So, at the bottom of the notes that Granola generated for our meeting, there's next steps. And one of the next steps—I'm reading this verbatim—is, uh, approve sponsor product in the doc assigned to Casey, which is exactly right. That is one of the things that I needed to do. And this is very helpful because not only does it tell me what I need to do, but I can click on that line item and get a transcription summary. And then if I really want to go back to the actual transcript, I can do that as well. This makes it really hard for me to lose context, which is really, really helpful. So once you try it on a first meeting, it is hard to go without. You can try it totally free. You can head to granola.ai/atp. That's granola.ai/atp to get your time back. Go to granola.ai/atp and try it on your next call. Thank you to Granola for sponsoring the show.
