Granola Performance Tuning
Overview
Optimize Granola output quality across three dimensions: audio/transcription accuracy, AI enhancement quality, and integration speed. Granola's AI (GPT-4o/Claude) produces better output when it has clean audio, well-typed notes, and structured templates.
Prerequisites
- Working Granola installation with meetings captured
- Willingness to improve audio setup and meeting practices
- At least 3-5 meetings captured to establish baseline quality
Instructions
Step 1 — Optimize Audio for Transcription
Granola captures system audio from your device. Transcription accuracy depends entirely on audio quality:
Hardware recommendations (by priority):
| Setup | Accuracy Impact | Recommendation |
|---|
| Wired headset with mic | Highest | Best for solo/remote meetings |
| USB condenser mic | High | Best for in-office, multiple speakers |
| Laptop built-in mic | Medium | Acceptable for quiet environments |
| Bluetooth headset | Variable | May cause dropouts — test first |
| Speakerphone in room | Low | Echo and distance degrade accuracy |
