Mind maps for podcasters
Turn your notes into a mind map
See how one topic hangs together.
A long note about an episode becomes branches you can follow, which is a different pass over the same material than reading a back catalogue again.
A mind map generated from any note in one step
Or write the outline yourself and Grape draws it, on any plan
Branches follow the structure you already wrote
Zoom around the map on desktop or phone
The map stays attached to the note it came from
Structure you cannot see in prose
Long notes hide their shape. A map puts it back on the surface.
Revision that is not rereading
Walking a map is a different pass over the same material.
Built from your note, not a template
The branches come from what you wrote, in your own words.
Follow one branch at a time
Open the part you are stuck on and leave the rest folded away.
A real map on a small screen
Pan and zoom on the phone instead of squinting at a picture of it.
The map stays with the note
It sits in the note it came from, ready the next time you open it.

Three things that stop eating the edit day
Skip the feature list. This is what changes between the recording stopping and the episode going out.
01
An hour of audio, and the show notes still have to be written by hand.
Turn an episode into text you can use
Drop the audio into a note, get a transcript, then ask for the summary and the timestamps worth clipping.
02
Guest research is in tabs, DMs and a doc you cannot find.
Show up to the interview prepared
Keep guest research in one note and ask for the five questions your notes suggest.
03
You know episode forty covered it and you would have to scrub to find where.
Remember what episode forty said
Search the whole back catalogue by topic instead of scrubbing through audio.

What that looks like for podcasters
Three points between recording and publishing where the app pulls its weight.
01
Before recording
Collect the guest research, links and questions in one note you can read from.
02
Straight after
Drop the audio in, get a transcript, and mark the parts that will make clips.
03
Publishing day
Ask for show notes built from the transcript and export them.
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.

Questions Before You Install It
The rest of them live in the help center.
Get show notes out of it.
Guest research, running orders, recordings and transcripts in one library, so an episode becomes show notes, clips and the prep for next week without starting from nothing.
