Local first storage for project managers
Work with no wifi and no worry.
Grape keeps a project file in a database on your own machine, so an hour before a steering meeting a dead connection changes nothing about what you can open.
Writing, reading, organising, drawing and recording all work offline
You pick where the database file sits
Export any note, or the whole library, as Markdown, HTML or PDF
Run the AI locally through Ollama or LM Studio if you prefer
No account to start
Download, open, write. Accounts only matter for the paid plans.
Your choice of AI provider
OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Ollama and more.
Export whenever you want
Markdown, HTML or PDF, one note at a time or the whole library.
You pick where the file sits
Point the database at any folder on your machine, and move it later.
The plane, the tunnel, the cabin
Writing, search, drawing and recording all work with no connection.
Local models if you want them
Run the AI through Ollama or LM Studio and nothing leaves the machine.
Results
Three things that stop being a problem
Feature lists are easy to write and hard to care about. This is what changes for project managers.
Actions written while people are still talking
Record the meeting and ask for the decisions and owners as soon as it ends.
Status updates from your own notes
Ask what moved this week across a project folder and get a summary you can send.
Nothing falls through the gap between tools
Checklists, notes, attachments and transcripts all live in the same note.
In practice
What that looks like for project managers
A few moments in a normal week where the app earns its place.
Weekly meeting
Record it, get the transcript, ask for the action list and tick items off in the note.
Risk review
Keep a note per risk, linked to the meetings where it moved.
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.
