Download Granular for macOS

The download is a standard .dmg disk image. It is free to start — you can use Granular with your own AI login before deciding on a plan.

Install in three steps

  1. Open the .dmg you downloaded.
  2. Drag the Granular icon into your Applications folder.
  3. Open Granular from Applications (or Spotlight). On first launch macOS may ask you to confirm — that is expected for a downloaded app.
Tip: Granular is code-signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens without security warnings on a normal Mac.

First run

On first launch Granular helps you connect an AI agent. You can sign in with an existing Claude or Codex login, or add the Granular AI add-on for hosted models with no setup. Then you are ready for your first session.
