Sherlock Calls
for Google Drive + Granola
Google Drive stores the documents, contracts, and files that define every deal. Granola captures every meeting as structured, searchable AI notes on macOS. When you need to investigate across both, the evidence is split between two dashboards neither of which knows the other exists. Sherlock Calls bridges them — no code, no exports, no manual joins. Ask once from Slack and get a sourced answer in under 5 seconds.
TL;DR — What beta users get access to
- 1
Sherlock Calls connects to Google Drive, Granola simultaneously — read-only, no code changes, no webhooks — and lets you query both with a single Slack message.
- 2
Ask questions that neither Google Drive nor Granola can answer alone. Google Drive holds critical documents — but they're invisible during live call and deal investigations. Granola holds what was decided in every meeting — but those decisions are invisible during investigations. Sherlock deduces the complete picture from both.
- 3
No dashboard switching, no manual joins, no fog of uncertainty — ask in Slack and receive a sourced answer with evidence from every connected provider in under 5 seconds. The game is afoot.

The Investigation Gap
What's invisible when you use Google Drive + Granola without Sherlock
Each platform shows you its own data. But the questions that matter most live in the gaps between them.
Google Drive and Granola each hold half the picture
Google Drive holds critical documents — but they're invisible during live call and deal investigations. Granola holds what was decided in every meeting — but those decisions are invisible during investigations. Without correlating both, your team sees two incomplete views of the same underlying reality — and every investigation stops at the boundary between systems.
Cross-platform cost and performance remain invisible
Google Drive tracks its own time to retrieve relevant documents. Granola tracks its own time to reconstruct meeting context. Your true cost per outcome — and the performance of each component in your combined stack — requires data from both, but neither platform shows you that unified picture.
Critical events disappear at the boundary between systems
When a session, contact, or signal moves between Google Drive and Granola, the transition is recorded with different identifiers in each system. Tracing what happens across the full journey requires a manual join that takes hours you don't have.

FAQ
Common questions about Sherlock + Google Drive + Granola
How does Sherlock Calls connect Google Drive and Granola data?
- Sherlock uses read-only API access to both platforms simultaneously. When you ask a question, it queries Google Drive, Granola in parallel, correlates the results by timestamp and shared identifiers, and produces a single sourced answer — the same way a good detective correlates evidence from multiple witnesses.
Do I need to set up any data pipelines between Google Drive and Granola?
- No. Sherlock Calls is entirely pull-based — it queries both APIs on demand when you ask a question. There are no webhooks, no ETL pipelines, no data warehouses, and no code changes required in any of the connected platforms.
What kinds of questions can I ask about my Google Drive + Granola stack?
- You can investigate anything that spans both platforms — document recency and content relevance, decision quality and commitment frequency, cross-platform costs, handoff patterns, and performance comparisons. Sherlock translates your plain-English question into the right API calls and returns the deduced answer.
Is my Google Drive and Granola data stored by Sherlock?
- No. Sherlock Calls queries your data in real time and returns results directly to Slack — nothing is stored, indexed, or replicated in any Sherlock database. All data remains in Google Drive and Granola and is accessed only during an active investigation.
How long does it take to set up the Google Drive + Granola integration?
- Elementary — typically under 5 minutes total. Connect each platform with read-only credentials, install the Sherlock Calls Slack app, and ask your first question. No engineering, no dashboards, no onboarding calls required.
