Import notes from Granola or another tool

Bring your existing notes into Amlin from a Markdown or JSON export.

Switching from Granola or another notetaker? Settings → Import & Connect → Import your notes.

What you can import

  • A folder of .md files — the shape most tools' "export all" produces, one Markdown file per meeting. Title and date are read from frontmatter where present.

  • A single .md file

  • A single .json export — an array of notes with title, date, and body

How it works

  1. Click Choose file or folder… and pick your export.

  2. Amlin shows a preview before importing anything: how many notes it found, how many have transcripts, how many action items, and a sample of the titles.

  3. Click Import.

Good to know

  • Everything stays on your Mac. Import is local file parsing — nothing is uploaded.

  • Re-importing is safe. It never duplicates notes and never overwrites notes you've edited.

  • Imported notes are fully searchable via ⌘K and available to Ask (All meetings) immediately.
