Apps for founders
A real app on the desk and in your pocket.
Most founders capture on a phone and think on a laptop. Grape is a real app on both, with the same library in each and investor and candidate calls 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 founders.
Remember what you promised who
Ask your notes for the commitments from the last two weeks and get them with dates.
Walk into the next investor call warm
Pull up the note from the last conversation and the summary of what changed since.
Keep the thinking, not just the outcome
Record the argument, keep the transcript, and revisit why the call went the way it did.
In practice
What that looks like for founders
A few moments in a normal week where the app earns its place.
Fundraising
One note per investor, updated after every call, searchable across the whole round.
Hiring
Record interviews with permission and compare candidates from transcripts, not memory.
Weekly reset
Ask for everything you captured this week and turn it into next week.
