Glean AI

“In our personal lives, we have tools to help us find pretty much whatever we need. Why don’t we have the search tools we need at work? And that was the beginning of Glean.”

‍

Glean, co-founded by Arvind Jain and Vishwanath T R along with Tony Gentilcore and Piyush Prahladka in 2019, provides an AI-driven enterprise search platform which is designed for mid-sized technology companies with 500 to 2,000 employees. Their key features include a web app, sidebar search, native search, new tab page, Slack integration and a unified platform for fast and secure AI deployment across the enterprise.

Business Model

Glean is a SaaS platform with AI capabilities that offers knowledge management and enterprise search solutions. By providing a single content search across many systems with strong security and governance, the company targets mid-market and corporate organizations and makes money through scalable subscription licensing. Deep technical integrations that provide safe, all-encompassing information access are the main emphasis of their strategic approach.

The company's sales strategy focuses on securing early deployments in designated departments and gradually growing contracts from small start-ups to significant multi-year commitments.
