Granola now writes a nightly brief from your meetings so Claude, ChatGPT, and other connected agents can start with the background instead of waiting for you to explain it. The announcement describes a brief those agents can read, not a new agent that stands in for Claude or ChatGPT.

On November 11, 2026, Granola announced Agent Briefs. The brief is a curated snapshot of your work, written from your meetings. It covers priorities, the projects on your plate, the people you work with, and how you like to communicate. The company says asking Claude, ChatGPT, or another agent to get things done usually means filling them in on the background, and that Granola now does that explaining for you.

Granola rewrites the brief every night, so it is fresh in the morning and stays current as you have more meetings. You can read yours in the Connect tab.

The brief has eight parts: an overview of who you are at work and who you work with most closely; current priorities, the few things that matter right now; projects, a wider view of your work; people you are working closely with; a glossary of your jargon and shorthand; communication style; habits, meaning how you approach work; and identity and role, including how you fit into your team.

A same-day post from @meetgranola describes the nightly pass as summarizing what Granola knows about you — priorities, habits, relationships, and how you communicate — so agents have up-to-date context. The blog is more specific about the source: the brief is written from your meetings.

How you connect it

You connect the agents you already use, including ChatGPT or Claude, and you can use as many as you like. Granola says there is nothing else to set up and nothing to maintain. Once connected, agents start with the background. You can ask questions about the brief, or schedule an agent to check it daily. The announcement does not say this replaces each agent’s own memory.

The paths in the announcement are short:

  • Claude: Settings, then Connectors. Search for Granola, connect, then ask Claude to look at your agent brief.
  • ChatGPT: Settings, then Apps. Search for Granola, connect, then ask ChatGPT to look at your agent brief.
  • Cursor, Claude Code, or another client: connect to https://mcp.granola.ai/mcp.

Suggested questions include what your priorities are right now, what changed in those priorities after a few days away, and a short note drafted the way you usually write.

Agent Briefs are available on Business or Enterprise plans. The announcement does not say whether any other plan includes them.

If you are on Business or Enterprise, open the Connect tab in Granola, connect Claude or ChatGPT with the steps above, and read the brief yourself before you ask an agent to act on it.
