SeaMeet vs Granola: no bot, records WhatsApp/LINE, meetings become a wiki

Granola is a bot-free notepad that enhances notes you type during meetings. SeaMeet is the other half of that idea: full capture — audio, transcript, summary — for every call, including the WhatsApp and LINE rooms bots can't enter.

  • No live transcript

    No live transcript generated from the call audio during the meeting

  • No durable meeting library

    No recording, transcript library, or full-text search across your meeting history — notes are documents, not a searchable archive

  • No BYOK
