Grape
Apps for consultants

A real app on the desk and in your pocket.

Most consultants capture on a phone and think on a laptop. Grape is a real app on both, with the same library in each and stakeholder interviews landing wherever you are.
Full workspace on desktop: sidebar, editor, chat, canvas and search
Ten second capture on mobile: open, talk or type, done
Keyboard shortcuts on desktop for everything you do often
The same library on every device once sync is on

Desktop for the long work

Writing up, cleaning up and asking bigger questions of everything.

Mobile for the moment it happens

Recording, chat and search are one tap from the note list.

Local on both

Each device keeps its own copy, so a dead connection changes nothing.

Ten second capture on mobile

Open the app, talk or type, and it is already saved when you look up.

Shortcuts for what you repeat

The desktop app has a key for everything you do twice a day.

One library on both

Turn sync on and the desk and the pocket hold the same notes.
Results

Three things that stop being a problem

Feature lists are easy to write and hard to care about. This is what changes for consultants.

Interviews become findings the same day

Record, transcribe, then ask what came up across the whole engagement folder.

Switch clients without losing the thread

One folder per engagement and search that works across all of them when you need a precedent.

Reuse what you learned last time

Ask your archive how you handled a similar problem two years ago.
In practice

What that looks like for consultants

A few moments in a normal week where the app earns its place.

Discovery week

Record every interview into the client folder and let search find the patterns.

Synthesis

Ask for the themes, check the quotes, and draft the findings in the same note.

Between engagements

Search old work for the framework you built and adapt it.
FAQ

Questions Before You Install It

The rest of them live in the help center.

Not for rewriting your notes.

Client interviews, site visits, findings and drafts in one library, so the deliverable comes out of the work you already did instead of a blank page.
