How to use it
How Lawyers Get Started
No setup wizard and no workspace to design first. Six steps, about ten minutes, and most lawyers are writing before the end of the first one.
01
Download and open it
No account, no setup wizard, no workspace to design first. Choose where your notes live and start typing.
02
Bring your old notes across
Import from Apple Notes, point Grape at a folder of Markdown files, or drag in the PDFs you keep reopening.
03
Put everything in one place
Type, paste, record, attach, clip a page from Chrome or share one from your phone. Folders and tags are there when you want them and out of the way when you do not.
04
Ask instead of scrolling
Open the agent and ask a question about your own notes. The answer comes back with the note it came from.
05
Turn notes into the thing you needed
A summary, a deck of flashcards, a quiz, a mind map, or a clean export to send to somebody else.
06
Put it on your other devices
Turn on sync and the same library shows up on your phone, while each device keeps its own daily backup.
In practice
What that looks like for lawyers
A few moments in a normal week where the app earns its place.
New matter
One folder, one chronology note, and everything else linked to it.
Research
Keep the PDF and your extract in the same note so the reasoning survives.
Before a hearing
Ask your notes for the chronology and the open points.
