Granola, a startup known for its meeting notetaker, has launched a dictation feature, moving onto territory long held by Wispr. Wispr, which built its name on dictation, introduced a meeting notetaker only months ago. The two products are now converging.
How does Granola's dictation feature work on Mac?
On Mac, Granola’s dictation works much like other tools of its kind. A user presses the “Fn” key and starts talking. The software cleans up and formats the speech, then posts the final text. Because the feature runs across all apps, people can use it to write notes, dictate prompts, or reply to emails and messages.
Granola said the feature will reach iOS and Windows soon, though it did not provide a specific timeline.
How does Granola compare with Wispr?
The two companies are valued differently. Granola is valued at $1.5 billion, while Wispr is valued at $2 billion. Granola has concentrated on automating meetings and taking notes. Wispr is building its own AI models through a research lab that is exploring new ways for people to interact with computers.
Granola and Wispr are not alone in combining features. Other voice startups, including Fireflies, Speechify and Monologue, have also grown into multifeature apps that offer both meeting notetaking and dictation. Earlier this year, the prevailing strategy was to build a focused app that did one thing well. That approach is changing. Now these companies are looking for ways to get more value out of the speech they capture.
