Grain is an AI meeting recorder and video highlight tool that automatically records Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams calls, then generates AI summaries, action items, and searchable transcripts. Its standout feature is video clipping — users can create short highlight clips from meetings to share with stakeholders or add to Notion, Slack, or CRM records. Grain is popular with UX researchers, customer success teams, and sales teams.
