Handwriting notes for project managers
Write it by hand. Ask it like text.
Write weeklies and risk 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 project file 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.
Deliverables
Three things that stop falling through the gap
Not a feature list. What changes when the meeting, the actions and the risks live in one place.
The actions get written up an hour after the meeting, from memory.
Actions written while people are still talking
Record the meeting and ask for the decisions and owners as soon as it ends.
The status update means reopening every note from the week.
Status updates from your own notes
Ask what moved this week across a project folder and get a summary you can send.
The decision is in the notes, the task in the tracker, the file in email.
Nothing falls through the gap between tools
Checklists, notes, attachments and transcripts all live in the same note.
A sprint
What that looks like for project managers
Three points in a cycle where the app closes a gap.
01
Weekly meeting
Record it, get the transcript, ask for the action list and tick items off in the note.
02
Risk review
Keep a note per risk, linked to the meetings where it moved.
03
Reporting
Ask for a status summary built from this week and export it.
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.
