I repeat myself almost 17 times a day to my AI tools. It's so annoying until I started using this one AI tool as my Google Doc: So instead, I started using Granola .ai to open it in the background in almost every meeting I get into. > It works on Zoom, Meet & Teams (i use Meet). > It doesn't join in any of my meetings. > I hate bots in the meetings. Please don't do it. > I focus on the meeting rather than remembering context. Here's how I stopped taking notes at all: 1. Download Granola (granola .ai). 2. It's a notepad, like Apple Notes. 3. Open it in every meeting (non-negotiable). 4. It captures all the transcripts with timestamps. 5. Go to Claude Settings > Connectors > Granola 6. Now, everything you draft with Claude, it already has the context from the meetings you had. 7. Copy the following prompt (you do this ONCE): "Read my last 30 sent emails in Gmail. Write my voice profile: how I greet, how I sign off, my sentence length, my go-to phrases, the words I never use. Format it as writing instructions to follow when drafting as me." 8. To go even beyond a surface-level workflow, save the output as project instructions. 9. This is why your emails will sound like you. 10. After your next meeting, paste this in Claude: "Pull my last meeting from Granola. Draft the follow-up using my voice profile: what we decided, action items with owners, one clear next step. Keep it as short as I keep mine. Create it as a Gmail draft to the attendees." 11. Open Gmail draft. Attendees in the To field. 12. Ask Claude: "Which action items from this week's meetings are still waiting on me?" This simple workflow saves headaches because it remembers every meeting I've had. My recaps just became a mere to-do list. I am not lazy. I just hate to do small stuff that i can ask AI to help me do.
