Glean
AI / LLMAn enterprise AI platform that connects to company apps to power permission-aware search, an assistant, and agents over internal knowledge.
Overview
Glean indexes the content scattered across the SaaS tools an enterprise uses — docs, tickets, chat, code — and makes it searchable and answerable while strictly respecting the existing permissions of each user. On top of that sits an assistant and an agent-building layer. The hard, valuable part is the permission-aware knowledge graph: it is what lets a company deploy an AI assistant over sensitive internal data without leaking it across teams. It is a significant platform purchase aimed at mid-size and large enterprises, not a quick add-on.
