Granola's pricing in 2026 is refreshingly simple: three seat-based tiers, no per-minute or per-meeting charges, and no credit metering. You pay a flat monthly price per user — $0 for the free Basic plan, $14/user/month for Business, and $35/user/month for Enterprise — and that's the whole story.
Below is every plan broken down line by line, followed by an honest look at whether it's actually worth paying for.
Granola plans at a glance
Here's the full lineup. The jump you'll care about most is from Free to Business, because that's where the real limits disappear.
| Plan | Price | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | Free ($0) | AI meeting notes, AI chat, custom templates, multi-language transcripts. Limited to 25 meetings total (lifetime), 14-day meeting history, and no integrations. |
| Business | $14/user/month | Unlimited meetings, unlimited history, integrations (Notion, HubSpot, Slack, Salesforce, Linear, Zapier), Granola Folders for team collaboration, consolidated billing and admin. |
| Enterprise | $35/user/month | Everything in Business plus SSO, advanced security controls, API access, and organisation-wide opt-out of model training. |
Notice what's not in the table: there's no per-minute fee, no per-meeting cap on paid plans, and no credit system. Once you're on Business or Enterprise, you record and transcribe as much as you want. For the full feature picture, our Granola AI review digs into how the notes and AI chat actually perform day to day.
Basic (Free) plan
The free Basic plan gives you the core Granola experience — AI meeting notes, AI chat, custom templates, and multi-language transcripts — at $0. It's genuinely useful for trying the product.
The catch is the limits. You get 25 meetings for the entire lifetime of the account, not 25 per month, so a regular user burns through them in a few weeks. Meeting history is capped at 14 days, and there are no integrations at all — nothing syncs to Notion, Slack, HubSpot, or anywhere else.
Treat Basic as an extended trial rather than a long-term free plan. It's enough to see whether Granola's note style clicks for you, but it isn't built to be lived in.
Business plan — $14/user/month
Business at $14/user/month is the plan most people actually run on. It lifts every meaningful limit from the free tier: unlimited meetings and unlimited history, so nothing expires after two weeks.
This is also where integrations arrive — Notion, HubSpot, Slack, Salesforce, Linear, and Zapier — so notes and action items can flow into the tools your team already uses. You also get Granola Folders for team collaboration, plus consolidated billing and admin controls to manage seats in one place.
If you take meetings for a living, $14 unlocks basically everything a solo user or small team needs. There's no upsell tax hiding behind a credit meter.
Enterprise plan — $35/user/month
Enterprise sits at $35/user/month and includes everything in Business, then layers on the controls larger organisations require.
Those additions are SSO, advanced security controls, API access, and an organisation-wide opt-out of model training. In plain terms, Enterprise is about identity management, security, programmatic access, and data governance — not extra note-taking features.
If your team doesn't need SSO, an API, or a formal training opt-out, the extra $21 per seat over Business buys you nothing you'll use. This tier is squarely for IT and compliance requirements.
What happened to the solo plan?
If you're looking for a cheaper individual option between Free and Business, it no longer exists. The old Pro and Individual solo tiers were retired in 2026.
There's no mid solo tier now — you go from the Free Basic plan straight to the $14 Business seat. For a single user, that means the effective price of "unlimited Granola" is $14/month once you outgrow the free trial. If you're weighing that against rivals, our Granola alternatives guide compares the closest solo-friendly options.
Is Granola worth it?
For most people, yes — Business is priced well below the competition. At $14/user, Granola is notably cheaper than Otter Business ($30/mo) and Fathom Business ($34/mo), and there are no credit or per-minute charges to inflate the bill later.
The Free tier is fine to trial Granola, but the 25-meeting lifetime cap (again, not monthly) is hit fast by regular users, and it has no integrations. So don't plan around the free plan long term — plan around the $14 seat.
Enterprise is really about SSO, API, and the training opt-out, not features you'll notice in daily note-taking. Pick it only if compliance or identity management forces your hand; otherwise Business is the sweet spot. If you're still comparing note takers, our roundup of the best AI note takers puts Granola head to head with the field so you can see where $14 lands versus everyone else.
Bottom line: start free to test the note style, upgrade to Business at $14 when the 25-meeting cap bites, and only reach for Enterprise if your organisation needs SSO, an API, or a training opt-out.
