Handwriting notes for product managers
Write it by hand. Ask it like text.
Write customer calls and reviews by hand on pages of ruled paper and Grape reads the words off the page on the device itself, so a page of a quarter of notes in your own hand turns up in search like any typed note and the agent can quote it.
Lined, grid, dotted, graph or plain pages, A4 or Letter, up to a hundred of them
Handwriting read into text on the device, so pages are searchable and the agent can read them
Import a PDF to write over it, export the notebook as one
The same pages open on the desk, where you can keep writing on them
Paper that behaves like paper
Pen, highlighter, eraser, shapes and text boxes on pages that stack the way a notebook does.
Your handwriting, searchable
The words are read off the page on the device itself, and nothing leaves it to do so.
The agent reads your pages
Ask what the lecture said on Tuesday and the answer comes from the ink.
Write on the slides
Import a PDF and annotate it page by page, then export the lot back out as one.
Page forty is a tap away
A navigator shows the whole notebook as thumbnails, with a page added or removed from there.
Open the notebook at the desk
The pages sync like any note and open in the desktop app, where you can add to them.
Outcomes
Three things that stop living in your head
Not a feature list. What changes when six meetings a day land somewhere that can answer back.
The follow ups are in your head until the next call pushes them out.
Get the follow ups out of the meeting
Record, then ask for what you agreed and who owes what, before the next call starts.
Someone asks why it was built that way and the doc is called Untitled.
Answer why we built it that way
Search by the decision, not the doc title, and get the note that explains it.
Ten customer calls, ten transcripts, and no time to read them.
Turn ten customer calls into one theme
Ask what came up repeatedly across a folder of interviews and get it summarised.
A quarter
What that looks like for product managers
Three points in a planning cycle where the app changes the work.
01
Discovery
Record every call into one folder and let search do the pattern finding.
02
Spec writing
Draft in the note where the research lives and link to the decisions it depends on.
03
Planning
Ask for a summary of everything you captured about an area this quarter.
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.
