Grape
Shared folders and notes for consultants

Share notes and folders and write in them together

Share a folder. Write in it together.
Invite people to a folder or a note and work in it from your own Grape. Sharing comes with Sync and Pro, and on Pro you see each other type, with a named cursor for each person.
Share a folder with its subfolders and notes, or a single note on its own
Can edit for the people you work with, Can view for the ones who only read
Edits merge, so two people in the same paragraph never overwrite each other
On Pro, everyone in the note types live, each with a cursor that carries their name
On Sync, edits arrive with sync a couple of seconds later and merge the same way
You and everyone you invite need Sync or Pro, and a locked note is never shared

Invite by email

Type an address, choose Can edit or Can view and send. They join from the email or from the app.

See each other type

On Pro, everyone in the note writes live, with a cursor in their own colour that carries their name.

Can edit or Can view

Editing for the people you work with, reading only for the ones who just need to keep up.

On Sync, edits merge

Changes arrive a couple of seconds after they are made, and both sides are kept rather than overwritten.

See who changed what

Version history lists every edit under the name of whoever made it, with what they added and deleted.

Your undo stays yours

In a live note, undo takes back what you typed and never the line someone else just wrote.
Executive summary

Three things that stop being billable friction

Not a capability list. What changes when interviews become findings the same day.
01
Interview week ends with ten recordings and no findings.

Interviews become findings the same day

Record, transcribe, then ask what came up across the whole engagement folder.
02
Switching clients means fifteen minutes of reading before you can think.

Switch clients without losing the thread

One folder per engagement and search that works across all of them when you need a precedent.
03
You solved a version of this two years ago and cannot find the deck.

Reuse what you learned last time

Ask your archive how you handled a similar problem two years ago.
An engagement

What that looks like for consultants

Three points in a project where the tool changes the work.
01

Discovery week

Record every interview into the client folder and let search find the patterns.
02

Synthesis

Ask for the themes, check the quotes, and draft the findings in the same note.
03

Between engagements

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

Questions Before You Install It

The rest of them live in the help center.
Every question

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.
