Note-taking app for capturing ideas, lists, and rich media

Zoho Notebook is moving from passive note-taking into AI meeting capture — a deliberate push into Granola/Otter territory.

◆Current state
Zoho Notebook is on roughly a quarterly release cadence. The arc visible across the recent posts: Notebook AI (March 2025, in-app AI assistant), annual Apple-OS compatibility refreshes, a 2025 year recap, and most recently AI Meeting Notes (April 2026) — turning recorded meetings into structured notes with decisions and action items. The product is no longer just a note-taking app but is positioning as an AI-assisted productivity surface.
◆Where it's heading
The AI Meeting Notes release puts Zoho Notebook directly into the meeting-capture category dominated by Granola, Otter, and Fathom — but tucked inside the Zoho One bundle, where the price is effectively zero for existing Zoho customers. Combined with last year's Notebook AI, the strategy is to make the note app the entry point for AI-assisted work, similar to how Apple Notes and OneNote have evolved. The Samsung Whiteboards partnership (2024) and consistent Apple-OS support show the team treats cross-device experience as a structural advantage.
◆Prediction
Expect AI Meeting Notes to be expanded into multi-source capture (calls, voice memos, dictation) and tighter integration with Zoho Meeting. The next directional move is likely making Notebook the unified AI inbox for everything captured across the Zoho One bundle — bringing email, meetings, and chat into a single AI-indexed surface.
