Overview

Glean is an AI-powered platform designed to help employees find information scattered across their company's various applications and knowledge silos. It acts as a central search engine, indexing data from hundreds of different tools like Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, and more. By leveraging advanced AI and natural language processing, Glean allows users to ask questions in natural language and get relevant, personalized answers and documents quickly, without needing to know exactly where the information is stored. This significantly improves productivity and reduces time spent searching for internal knowledge, often cited as a major drain on employee time.

Beyond simple search, Glean offers features like personalized results based on user activity and team, expert identification, and an AI chat assistant that can summarize documents or answer complex questions by synthesizing information from multiple sources. Its value proposition lies in breaking down internal knowledge barriers, fostering collaboration, and ensuring employees have access to the right information at the right time, ultimately driving efficiency and empowering better decision-making within organizations while maintaining robust security and access controls.
