Granola for AI agents
Granola is a meeting notes app that captures transcripts and turns conversations into searchable notes and follow-ups for teams. Teams use it to keep project work visible instead of tracking it across separate spreadsheets. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

Granola in three steps.
- 01Your users connect GranolaThey sign in to Granola on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “updates” can wait for the user to approve.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Granola through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('granola', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', destructive: 'deny', }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Granola connects.
Granola runs its own MCP server behind OAuth. Arc0 registers the client, users approve access on Arc0 Connect, and your agent reaches Granola through the same endpoint, policies and audit log as every other app.
The same Granola connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- OAuth 2.0 (MCP)
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Granola from any agent.

Granola and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Granola with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Granola to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Granola actions you allow.
How do users connect Granola?
Granola runs its own MCP server behind OAuth. Arc0 registers the client, users approve access on Arc0 Connect, and your agent reaches Granola through the same endpoint, policies and audit log as every other app.
Which Granola actions can my agent take?
6 in total: 6 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I make my agent read-only in Granola?
Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Granola policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.
Can my own backend call Granola too?
Yes. The same Granola connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Granola into your agent.
Your users connect Granola once, under your brand. Your agent gets 6 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
