About Glean

Glean is an enterprise search and AI assistant platform designed to give employees a unified way to find information across all the tools and applications their organization uses. By connecting to sources such as Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, and dozens of other business applications, Glean indexes company knowledge and makes it retrievable through a single search interface. The platform uses AI to surface relevant results and generate direct answers to questions, drawing from content spread across multiple systems rather than requiring users to search each tool individually. The primary use cases center on reducing time spent hunting for information, onboarding new employees faster, and enabling teams to act on institutional knowledge that would otherwise be buried in disconnected apps. Employees can ask natural language questions and receive synthesized answers with citations pointing back to source documents. Beyond search, Glean includes an AI assistant layer that can help with tasks like drafting, summarizing, and researching topics using the organization's own data as context. It also supports building custom AI agents and workflows tailored to specific business functions, positioning it as a broader work AI platform rather than a standalone search tool. Glean is built explicitly for enterprise customers, with features like role-based access controls, permissions that mirror those already set in connected applications, and data governance tools intended to meet the security and compliance requirements of large organizations. It is not marketed toward individual users or small teams. Pricing is not publicly listed on the website and is structured around enterprise contracts, with prospective customers directed to contact the sales team for quotes. This model is consistent with the platform's focus on large-scale deployments where implementation, security review, and custom integration work are part of the engagement. Organizations evaluating Glean would typically go through a formal procurement process.
