Local first storage for coaches
A local first notes app that works offline
Work with no wifi and no worry.
Grape keeps a client history in a database on your own machine, so five minutes before a call a dead connection changes nothing about what you can open.
Writing, reading, organising, drawing and recording all work offline
You pick where the database file sits
Export any note, or the whole library, as Markdown, HTML or PDF
Run the AI locally through Ollama or LM Studio if you prefer
No account to start
Download, open, write. Accounts only matter for the paid plans.
Your choice of AI provider
OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Ollama and more.
Export whenever you want
Markdown, HTML or PDF, one note at a time or the whole library.
You pick where the file sits
Point the database at any folder on your machine, and move it later.
The plane, the tunnel, the cabin
Writing, search, drawing and recording all work with no connection.
Local models if you want them
Run the AI through Ollama or LM Studio and nothing leaves the machine.
The shift
Three things that stop pulling you out of the room
Not a feature tour. What changes when the notes take care of themselves.
You are writing while the client is talking, and missing what they said.
Stop taking notes while listening
Record with consent, then let the transcript carry the detail while you stay in the conversation.
Each session starts with a scramble to remember where you left off.
Open every session already caught up
Ask what this client was working on and get the last three sessions summarised.
The framework that worked is in a doc you cannot find during the call.
Reuse the prompts that work
Keep your questions and frameworks one keystroke away with saved prompts.
One session
What that looks like for coaches
Three moments around a call where the app does the admin.
01
Before a call
Read the two line summary of last time and the goals you agreed.
02
During
Stay present, and jot only the things you want to come back to.
03
After
Ask for the actions and send the client a clean summary.
The rest of the app
What Else Grape Does
Every part of the app is built around the same idea: keep what you write, and hand it back when you need it.
Write it up in five minutes.
Session notes, client goals, prompts and your own frameworks in one library, so preparation takes minutes and nothing important gets forgotten between calls.
